some dreams live on in time forever
those dreams,you want with all your heart
and i will do whatever it takes
follow through with the promise i made
put it all on the line
what i hoped for at last would be mine
if i could reach,higher
just for one moment touch the sky
from that one moment in my life
i am gonna be stronger
know that i have tried my very best
i would put my spirit to the test
if i could reach
some days are meant to be remembered
those days we rise above the stars
so i will go the distance this time
seeing more the higher i climb
that the more i believe
all the more that this dream would be mine

All I want for Christmas is a digital cam. Haha. Nah kidding,I don’t really need one. I just need a better memory to remind myself to bring out the Nikon camera instead of the ol’ cranky Canon one that resides in my bag half the time. Because almost all of my pics turned out funny so I’m going to wait for Chunhong to send us the ones on her side after her Bali trip. Luckily the group photo could still be salvaged. So I guess it is a prelude for now then. ;)
Last night’s gathering was filled with joy and laughter as we came together once again to catch up on each other’s lives. As much as we have changed over the years, the kid in us just pops out to say hi when you are with people who have seen you at your silliest, nerdiest and wackiest moments in those growing up years. Thus we can goof around as much as we want without needing to make an impression of any sort. Chunhong also put in a lot of effort to make her place nice nice for all of us. Check out the pretty tree above! It was an evening that had the warmth of the hosts in it, so much so that we were literally feeling really warm there! Heh. Thanks gal for organising the party :)
Larry who was missing from Chunhong’s party was also sporting enough to invite us to his condo apartment after we have left the party. Nice place and he gets to stay there alone. All of us were envious lah heh.We had the whole place to ourselves till 3plus in the morning. And so 2 girls and 8 guys engaged in a drinks session that was in fact a conspiracy to get Andrew drunk. Bottoms up to 10 years of friendship works like no other magic call could. After Andrew took over the couch in a blabbering state of mind, the rest of us were still sober and could sit around chatting. Lenco also celebrated his birthday with us at the strike of 12 midnight. It must have been a hilarious way to kickstart his birthday celebrations this year. Fun times to remember the night by. Lets hope we get to meet a couple more times before everyone gets busy again.
Happy 10th anniversary peeps! We’ve come a long way. :)
