6th years later...

Time seem to fly at top speed when someone is gone.. its the 6th years since u have left us and i recently developed a strong dislike going to the temple where you are resting.. cos its a cruel reminder that i can never talk, see or hear you ever again..

I'm getting married next year and i really hope you will be there.. its a great pity that you wont personally get to know your brother-in-law, the man your little sister is going to spend the rest of her life with.. well i guess this is life. your passing is a great reminder to me that i should never ever waste time doing anything that will not give me any meaning in life.

I'm still trying hard to be a better person and hope you will give me the strength and courage to step out of my comfort zone and achieve what i am suppose to achieve in life.
please continue to bless our parents with great health and happiness (whatever that's left) and of cos, our fatty brother and great sis in law.. bless them with a healthy and smart kid.

Not forgetting Debbie and her family.. Jayden and Jerlynn are really beautiful kids i've ever seen.. Please bless her family with great health and constant happiness.

Hope you are doing well up there with all the other angels.. miss you..

Hello Bro,
Made my visit today.

Started to race again. Second fastest timing in heats, but got fourth in finals.
The team is going to start preparing for the next race and Mat mentioned about the Champion team again.
He also mentioned that the teams are quiet unlike last time.
Guess everyone missed you kpkb-ing on the boat.

Had put on weight and has started training again to lose the bulge. Now I understand the pain of carrying 1 pack of rice and jog around.

One day after jogging and just walking around the track to cool down, I recalled the days when you got teased when you put on weight and decided to go jogging.

Frankly, exercising alone is quite lonely and boring.
Missed the days where we train, exercise, tease and compete with each other.

From,
YY

6 years on..

Hi baby,

How have you been? 6 years on and it still feels as though I'm stuck 6 years back.. Well, I guess the world just stops moving when you lose your loved ones? I miss you loads and though I'm much better than 6 years ago when I used to cry buckets of tears.. I admit today is still always the hardest to get by every single year.

I will always turn to your Fb or your blogspot as an avenue to let out my "frustrations".. Because this is my only channel left for me to" speak" to you..

The guys from NTU alumni raced last weekend and they were really nice to ask me over.. I feel bad coz I find it really tough even up till now to attend any race without you rowing in it.. And even more worse to know that i would never see you rowing in another.. After all, I have seen you grow up rowing in canoeing and paddling in dragon boat races for almost ten years.. It's like a super long and endearing journey that we had gone through together..

But I actually miss that kind of familiarity..  The rowing scene, the cheering, the teamwork, the "bai dong", the "gan cheong"  feeling.. Sometimes I feel like I'm a changed person after you left.. I no longer do sports now.. Or rather I dun have the time for a half an hour jog even. . And even Courage has left to become another angel. I bet she must have decided that you would be able to spend more time running with her than I possibly could. =)

I miss talking to you so much.. I'm sure many of your friends too.. I hope you are still watching over us while carrying on with your chores above..

Missing you dearly... And loving you wholeheartedly.. Always.
Deb

Courage is with you now....

Yo Eujin, I heard from Deb today that Courage has passed away today due to some medical complications... She is travelling now and is sad that she is not able to spend more time with Courage... do tell Courage that Deb loves and miss her. Now that Courage has a new master, I believe she will be well taken care of and you can go jogging with her too!!!

Till we meet again ....=)

Yo Eujin! Hope you are well up there... I am finally tying the knot and I want to share this joy with you! I know you will definitely be there on my big day... waiting to see how the guys will "tekan" me =p

While you gym and race with the Angels, do watch over your love ones and the rest of the guys .. till we meet again =)

I'm just thinking about you..

Can't get to sleep tonight.. Was looking through some of our old photos and reliving the past memories.. Really miss horsing around with you like we are little kids.. Miss those teases we had towards each other.. Miss those little notes, love letters and emails that used to spring up in my books, on my table or inbox.. Miss your ever so proud and confident self. Miss your witty jokes and your culinary skills.. Miss everything about you. It is true that a person in love always looks the best.

You made me everything that i was.

I could only wish I had more time with you.. But i know in my heart our time together has long been over, at least physically. I do hope to see you in my dreams when i finally get to sleep tonight..

I love you.
Deb

Happy birthday baby

Hi dear,

Its your birthday today.. Ill always miss those times when we bring each other out for romantic dinners or those times when we celebrate our birthdays just eating our favourite stingray at chomp chomp. Such were the simple, yet pleasant joys in our lives. I also remember that we once planned a birthday surprise for you back in hostel.. Where each one of your friends hid in your hostel room while TS and you went to cook noodles for supper. All these moments are etched deep in my memory and probably each and every one else's minds too..

I hope the angels are celebrating your birthday in this similar fashion too, maybe even bigger!

Seasons Greetings

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Chinese New Year, Happy V-Day & Anniversary and Happy Birthday in advance..

I miss hearing your voice, I miss your touch, your laughter and your teases. Most importantly, I miss talking to you..

I miss everything about you and I miss you.

I wish I could see you more often in my dreams, yet I never fail to wake up without tears in my eyes when I do.. But I would see want to see you in my dreams each time, coz I know that that is the only other way I can see you and talk to you again.

Loving you like always and missing you more than ever.

Deb
