Today in school I accompanied ghim hong for his blood donation duty at 4th storey. While registering to donate, the sociology girl walked passed! I asked lim to follow me and we followed her to see which lecture she is going. After she went into the lecture room, I pointed at the paper outside the lecture room and I said what is MACRO? Just at this time she walked out! She saw me and I quickly walked away to avoid any embarrasment.
She is taking macro economics and this means she is in year 2. :(
Later after school I took bus 151 to toa payoh to meet someone.

After boarding I realised I run out of money in my ezlink card. Before i know it, the bus moved off.
The smallest change in my wallet is a $10.
I approached an auntie sitting in front and asked whether she has small change. she offered me 2 $5 notes to change for my $10. How would that help? She doesn't have any coins either.
The guy sitting behind the auntie was an uncle who is sleeping.
I have no choice but to approach the next nearest person who happened to be a girl.
She took out some coins and asked me how much I need. I tried to ask her for small change of $10 but she kept saying nevermind. I took $1.50 from her.
I took the seat behind her and keep thanking her. She says she feels happy helping people. I can't thank her enough. I asked her if she is a student at SIM, but she isn't. I thought of getting her hp number so that I can meet her and pass her the money, but I think it is quite weird to do that so I didn't do it.
When she was alighting, I thanked her again. she said she helped me because I am a blackburn fan. (I am wearing the blackburn jersey again!) She added that she is a liverpool fan!
Thank you liverpool girl! Shall we ever meet again, I will definitely return the favour!
Sometimes I do wonder. It is so difficult to deliberately know a person, yet by chance, circumstances bring people together.
When paths cross, lives change. Our class in jc brought us together. The many 21st birthdays are also circumstances that brought us together once more. Would things have been the same without the birthdays?
Surroundings change every few years and people around us change.
Circumstances brought us together with our primary school classmates but how many primary school friends are we still in contact with.

It really takes more than chance meeting or circumstances to have close- maintaining-friendship. It requires effort to want to meet up and come together. It helps when the come-together sessions are enjoyable. It will make us want to meet up more.
Will we stop meeting ever again after jiunbin's (last 21st) birthday? Will busyness eventually outweigh our leisure time and the from the little leisure time, the time we can spare to have a get together? I hope not, but only time will tell. :(
