Saw someone on the street with a splitting image of Jay today. It had been so many years since i last kept in contact with him. We have totally lost touch since i started uni while he continued his NS with the marine police. He was my senior in JC and stayed nearby. One day, we just started talking when we met while walking to school.. It was a short sweet puppy kind of affection i had for him. He had been special then. He was kind, soft spoken, Eurasian and looks alittle like the Singapore foreign soccer player Abba Saab. And he was the first person to write a poem for me. Till today, i still keep the letter in which he wrote the poem for me.

Letter to Jean,
The only moon in the dark night
The shining star twinkling bright
Such a wonderful sight
In this amazing night
Kind in heart and soul
Always to help the lesser
With efforts that you pour
To make their days brighter
Passion set inside yourself
A World. So filled with life
Enjoyment of this sacred life
As only you know how
Admiration for this gem
Long forth do i have to say
How special a person you are
Like diamonds and pearls so rare
Windows through this naked world
Provided by visions of your own
You know the value of living
Like living is what you do
Thanks for being the telescope
And the heart beater as well
For you are truly great
It's time that you know
Jay

In our journey of life, we meet countless of people who enters and leaves our life. Some leaves a mark, others are forgettable. And looking back, those who have left a footprint are those who have touched us, made a difference in our life, shared deep experiences and adventures together with us, and who had made the efforts to live in the moment and created the special memories for us to revisit. And these are the footprints that add colors and richness in our life. I hope i had left my footprints behind those who had taken the journey together with me at some point of my life too.
Ok. I'll end this entry with the attached powerpoint on life journey.
