Of course there are the "special" few that I'd love to thank for making this year such a bitch. Go figure. But I really meant that I really want to thank you, simply because..
What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger.
I'm not gonna name anyone but you have my thanks. You should feel proud. Its not everyday somebody thanks you for being an asshole :D
While this wasn't quite a memorable year but there were a few things that happened here and there that brought happiness to me. I will list these things down because these are the things I would very much like to remember. The very shiny silver linings of the endless vast gray clouds that haunted the year 2010 for me.
College
While it wasn't all honeymoon and fun, I met a lot of new awesome friends here at TARC. Chief among them is Horng Liang haha brother you're the only one thick faced enough to withstand my verbal lashing and still hangout with me through out these 2 semesters. Group works with you are easy because I know I can count on you to get something done and you know how to ask me questions when you don't understand something related to the assignment (although I've always never given you a straight answer or teased you for not listening in class). While I was leader in most of the assignments, you were the pillar there who held the group together making sure everyone is doing what they should be doing. Bro I'm sorry that I have always unknowingly dragged you into my conflicts until you always become the innocent victim hahahaha.
Khuat Seng Fatt. You have an unhealthy obsession with my fishes particularly my white koi. While I was never close to you during the 1st semester, I believe we both found out we can be psycho together during the 2nd sem haha good times with the "spoon". It was a pleasure to have worked with you on our Understanding Type final assignment.
Lee Rou Wei. Small girl that drives a small car with a big smile on the face. The final assignment wouldn't be as nice as it is if you weren't in our group haha you're the hardest working one amongst all of us. Props to you. Keep on smiling, stay awesome.
Low Teck Soon. I hate you. Because everytime you play basketball with me I cannot be point guard LOL. Kanasai arh berani engkau curi posisi aku dekat gelanggang bola keranjang! All in all the funniest guy in class.
Low June Binn. I hate you also. Because every time you to drive to the basket I always get injured haha. And when I want to drive to the basket, you're always there to make sure I don't score. But when we're on the same team you're an awesome teammate.
Siang Lin. D1 tall fella! 1st time I play basketball against you damn unfair lor. You and Kar Hong vs me and Jeff walao cheating sia hahaha but still I can score :P. I know you admire my hair wakakaka.
Jeff. Always the technical expert in class. One of the few I can relate with in terms of music and interests. Want any latest news can just ask this guy here lol.
Ms. Pauline. Nah teacher how could I forget the lecturer which I gave a hard time to :D I've thoroughly enjoyed your class hehehe. While I wasn't the model student but you know that having a student like me is "refreshing" from the normal routine. Best thing I can remember is that I can make you laugh until you wont even want to look at me but just mutter empty threats to cut my hair hahahaha. Yes I'm a horrible student but you know you've enjoyed teaching the crazy one. Wait CNY I will bring the D2 gang to your house and collect angpaos :D
And of course the rest of CGD1 - D2 I haven't forgotten you just not much to say. Hope you guys enjoyed me as you classmate as much as I've enjoyed being yours. 2 more semesters for you guys to see my face hehehe.
And those peeps I know I can count on. In no particular order :D
James. You black and white son of a gun! haha bros since 1997 while you are always blur and always a big lummox you're a good friend to have around. You have the thickest skin and toughest skull to have withstand me for almost 14 years haha.
Wei Ken. Always the youngest one there. Knew you back from the BB days bro haha. Always my partner in crime as well. Always enjoyed the times when we were making fun of James. Take care in Singapore, see you during CNY.
Kevin Ng. Coach Anzai! nyahahaha biggest buddy around. Always the emo one xD. Always nice to hangout with you. Despite your size I'm always amazed at the amount you can eat haha. Later we have a date with bottles of beers hahaha.
Alicia Voon. Hah the person that will keep me company when I need somebody to turn to. Awesome friend but will always try to contradict me lol. And I'm 15 :D
Xiao-Ly. Future pastry taukei! Hahaha. Been a pleasure to shoot your pastry and eating them after haha. Your pastry photoshoot has expanded my personal portfolio into the food industry as well so I have you to thank. Don't worry your pastries are delicious, you'll be that taukei for sure!
Michelle Choo. Ini Bro or bimbo? (who else would have an IGN of DivaChoo? LOL) haha Thanks again for the AWESOME HAT! You're a nice person to talk to and nice to hangout with also. But wanna ajak you ah susah betul. I think got better chance of winning Toto ah. Maybe me and Kevin will just show up in front of your house unannounced and force you out like that day we go sing k hahahahaha terror betul. Time is running out for you mich! The land down under is calling already haha and remember that little bet me and Kevin have against you.
Sanjay. Bro! Its been a long way man since year 2000. Basketball, photography and rock and roll! Enjoyed the late night shishas, late night basketball, photography excursions, making fun of people. Had a good laugh last night with your "spelling" test with a stoned Justin. Great to have you as my teammate during the old boys games, or better known between you and me as the thrashing of 3rdKL's 2010 basketball team. Good times.
Kok Yau. Ini satu lagi bro back from the BB days haha. Also basketball, late night mamaks, photography and maple lol. You're the most nicest person I've ever known haha stay awesome!
Hiro. Only met you this year, but enjoyed your company immensely. I know if I ever need advice I'll know who to turn to. Truly a person I can turn to during dark days.
And of course a host of many others. Just because you're not mentioned doesn't mean you are forgotten you are all appreciated. I always remember.
