farewell dinner.

today i had jerome n janet over for dinner. shups was in too. dinner was one of 'spicy' asian food just for jerome. there was laksa, sambal fish,rojak like thingy and the usual beer and wine. was stuffed by the end of it and soon we were all watchin big brother and queer eye on tv.afterwhich we had a photo viewing session or his n my pics. its good to see how his life is back in france. looking through the pics made me think about how different it must be like over there. this things that they do and how things are like. but then again in the end its still basically the same. a close group of friends to grow together with in life. loving family whether they openly show it or not. and a keen understanding about how small a part each one of us play in this huge world we have. it sortof puts everything in perspective for me as in it shows that things that arent commonly done where most of us grow up in are done someplace faraway. and to them its just not that surprising. here's a silly pic of the both of us. twenty two and far from home.

to sum it all up..

"what you dont know of isnt necessarily non-existant, you just have to be open and know where to look.."

i'll miss this friend when he flies off on thurs, too bad i cannot send him off. but i'm pretty sure we'll meet again someday as life would dictate..and as we fight against it! :)
