Born in the wrong era? No. There is no wrong era.

my friend.
one of the biggest influences in my life.
chatted with him about some personal stuff, things we haven't talked about for quite a while.

we first met in a ping pong competition when we were p6. i never played him, we weren't even in the same group, but i remembered his face any how when we met again. it's gotta be the face...

when we met each other again in sec 1, we never knew that we'd eventually remain as classmates until we graduated from that oh so incredibly good secondary school...
but well, one fine day during the june hols of my sec 2 year, he asked me to join him for a soccer clinic. i said ok. that was probably the first time i came into contact with syfc.
i say "probably" because my memories are a bit fuzzy around that period in my life. i remember what happened, but i just can't piece the events in chronological order.
so then eventually i'd be around him every other day in school and then every other yfc meeting we'd see each other again.
as a result, the amount of influence i got from him was tremendous. whether or not i had a similar effect on him, i do not know, and may never know, but at least i know that alot of him rubbed off onto me, contributing to what i am today.
those were probably the best years of my life thus far(but it's not just because of him, there were other things that significantly contributed as well)...we made paper bullets, played soccer, drew stickmen, spinned pens, discussed Bible, shared interests, talked jokes, trained ping pong, exchanged ideas, twoyed wiph engleehs...fun...
then
o's. jc. left yfc.
we continued to keep in touch. still played every now and then, but way less.
so when we talked recently, and i mean really talk, we shared quite abit...struggles, plans, latest happenings at yfc, why he left, issues and stuff...etc
we should do that more often man...
one of the reasons why i look forward to U
ahh university(at least what i think it's like)...regular climbing. real learning. chance to play again.
all i need to do now is just get past my promos first...
