Thi
in memory of Dory.
She impacted manny of our live
and we hope she affected your
May she dwell in heaven
and running free.
dear all,
it was a tough learning experience, wasn't it? you know, your parents, your teachers never failed to drone on and on about "appreciate your love ones, you never know when you can never say iloveyou." we thought it was (pardon me) half bullshit then, cause we took everything for granted. you know how silly i was to think that no one close to me would be gone so suddenly, so unexpectedly? yes, how stupid.
i still remember thursday, 25 august 2005. there was this unnatural thunder that sounded so loudly when it was actually a clear breezy day. hmm. didn't strike me at all, carried on with my work, fretting over PPRs. (which if you ask me is undoubtfully idiotic)
and then, it came to pe. was winning floorball 2-0. then suddenly, everything happened in a rush - xiangfeng running to us crying, us being shooed out of the parade square to make way for the ambulance, dory being wheeled out onto the ambulance..so lifeless..so frightfully pale, nilawan sobbing like i've never seen her before.
gosh, i think i nearly cried a river when i heard about dory's death. not exactly death, rather, but just physically dead. i can imagine her kicking me now, saying " lmao. im in heaven, no more add maths! whee! " haha. God bless her, my padawan.
so in short, i've learnt that treasuring your love ones everyday isn't bullshit. but rather something we all must do, cause we never know what tomorrow might bring. and now, i'm never stingy with my I.O.Us - you never know when it's the last time you can actually see your friend, hug your friend.
im sure dory had a wonderful time on earth. but now, she's taken the shortcut to heaven cause God looked at her one day and said "hmm, this little lamer must make a very good angel!" yea, i guess that or either he wanted to teach us the meaning of 'appreciate'.
so my dear friends, tell everyone how much you love them now. keep the I.O.Us going, keep spreading the bug.
i love you, i love you, i love you. each and everyone of you.
more than love,
Carissa
and i hope she lived happily ever after 4:39 AM
