I'd prefer holding a bible in hand than scrolling down my phone.
I'd prefer a handwritten letter in my mailbox than an e-mail in my inbox.
I'd prefer talking to you over a cup of coffee than from a screen.
I'd prefer a picture printed and framed than tagged and liked.
zhen shi gan.
its so obvious, people dont see it.
we all think that only we ourselves feel this way. but doesn't the likes on the facebook post show that we all feel the same way?
then why are we still treating others as if they were any lesser than us or that they would not ever understand us?
I never said thank you for that, I thought I might get one more chance.
To my past shepherds, Carmen, Jogina, Christine, Joyce, Sharlene. Thank you for all the efforts you took to grow me, and watching me grow from a new believer in primary 5 till now.(: so many had happened, specific details I may have forgotten, but looking at those past cards you've written, I just thank God for placing you in my life to encourage me, to point out what I was good in and what I was not. You are the one who saw my oh so obvious flaws but still love me all the same(: im so grateful for you!
To my past sheeeeeeep, anqi, ace, sherry, rebecca neo, rebecca ng huan wen, rachel tay, caroline, ellina, jinlin, debbie, yan xia, yu wen, and many many more. Thank you for trying to understand me, to play with me when I give the (oh so xinru kinda) sian face. I hope you'll remember that I am your friend and we'll continue helping one another in our life!
To wo de hao peng you men, I really do cherish you guys(girls) dearly. If only we all had all the time in the world to hang out and talk and have endless of overnights. But Im so so so glad we have each other, that we had times together that wouldnt feel right if anyone else other than you were there. Wait, this is starting to get mushy. haha. just know that you are important to me, and I have your back. Thank you for understanding me and correcting me so I can grow with yall. (:
Im not trying to make this post sound as if the friendships around me are all sweet and nice, but yeah, to explain all the nitty gritty lousy stuff would take a day to finish. haha.
maybe or maybe be.
everyone looks good from afar. we present ourselves at best. we try to say some surface stuff like "arggh I have bad temper" or act weird/crazy once in a while so our friends dont think that we're trying too hard to come across as perfect.
i cant wait actually, to find out your struggles your flaws and your failures. not because I can then put you down, but it is then I know the real you. not to judge you but so I am sure my friend isnt trying to keep up with any image when Im with him/her. Guess we all do appreciate that.
I hope I'm not being sceptical by typing what I typed above. Just some of the many random thoughts that I have in mind since tertiary education.
