Many people have walked into my life. The sad thing is, most of them walk out faster than they ever came into it.
I know I’m not always easy to get along with. I know I can be too direct or honest sometimes and I can get irritating real fast… I’m always complaining and saying things that I don’t mean. But… I really do appreciate and cherish my friends.

I want everyone who sees this page to know how much these people mean to me and how seriously I take my friendship with these people.

If I were to write something about you, it would take far too much space. So just know that I can depend on you with everything. In fact, perhaps a little too much. I trust you with my life. And you know I don’t really let people in easily anymore. We’ve been through so much together and although we’ve only been close for a couple of years now, we’ve known each other since Year 3. That’s a long time. It’s safe to say that for the rest of my life, I will never ever forget you. Just know how much I appreciate you and how grateful I am to have found you and kept you in my life. Thank you so much for everything. I hope it all stays the same. :) I love my Weirdo. - From your favorite Loser.

Thank you so much for the amazing friendship we have and for all of your love. I appreciate you so mch and I will never take you and anything you do for me for granted. I hope we’ll stay friends for a really long time and that we manage to scrapbook some of our unforgetable moments. I am so happy that we met. Funny how our first Mad Thrills and Electric Playground were the same. I love you so much, mon petit radis. <3 (PS, merci pour le ladies’ night avant la rentrée… Le meilleur ladies’ night de ma vie!)

You are the most awkward person I know. But I love it. We’ve been through thick and thin and we’ve always been there for each other when we needed it. There’s no denying that we’ve drifted apart a lot, but I hope that your sixteenth birthday get together proved to you that although we don’t see each other much anymore, I haven’t gone anywhere. And I’m not going anywhere. So any time you want to do some camwhoring, or telepathy shit or even just sit in a circle with a tub of Ben & Jerry’s and talk about feelings, you know I’m only a call away. :)

PATTIES. Best drink ever. Hahaha, you could’ve warned me before I whammed straight into that glass door on Henrik’s balcony though! YOU ARSE. Senior Formal date… <3 I still can’t believe you’re gone… Graduated and all the way in Washington. It’s so sad. :( But you’re so funny. So so random. I swear, you need to stop with Mac Miller. I miss you.

AIDS FOR LIFE! I miss you so much. You moved to Cambodia a few years ago now and to be honest, it really isn’t the same without you. You do visit every so often; but you know it just doesn’t add up sometimes when we’re in school and you aren’t there. Our Skype calls with Jacinta, Manuel and Roy. I love you so much and I can’t wait to see you next. :)

• Roy Tang

All of our Skype calls. Our mandarin lessons. Disneyland Paris during summer 2010.

Mon frèro.

I bawled when I got onto that plane to Paris, knowing that when I came back to Singapore, you’d be starting your new life in ShangHai. You meant everything to me. You are the brother I never had. No secrets between us. Those times when I’d forget my keys and nobody was home, so I’d chill at yours until 2AM. Unforgettable.

Oh my God. I can’t even say anything. I’ve known you since the very beginning of my life at Chatsworth. In fact, you were the reason I cried on my first day when I got back home… Hahah, intimidating. Funny to think that a week later we became best friends for the next 5 years. Things have changed so much since then… And I know we aren’t close anymore, but I really hope that things between us go back to being as good as they used to be.

November 2010, your world came crashing down around you. That day, I lost all belief I once had in karma. You are genuinely amazing. Honest, funny, cute, sweet, nice, optimistic but still realistic. You smiled so much! You made my day better just by being there and I know I didn’t show it a lot or constantly remind you, but now that you’re gone, I really wish I did.
I’m speaking of you as if you passed away… It almost feels like it sometimes. You left without a goodbye. Not blaming any of this on you. It’s never been your fault. But it hurt so much… Point is, I would do close to anything to bring her back for you and just to see you smile the way you did before. I miss you so much more than words will ever be able to express. And although you’re all the way in Argentina now, I hope we stay close. Because I would tumble down without you. I cried so much after you left. Hah, practically cried myself to sleep on the nights I could get to sleep. I need you. I depend on you more than I should. Te quiero mucho y te echo de meños, Manu… <3

• Ronald Adam Newbery

You pretty much define my life. You legitimately bought me a ring when we got facebook married, haha. I can’t even begin to describe the extent of my love for you and how much I miss you. I cherish you. You’re always proving to me how much you value our friendship and it means a ton. There’s so much to say about you, but I’d rather not bore everyone… But, I’d like to add: I still remember that day when you confronted me about how I used to like you. I told you I didn’t want to risk losing you and you told me that I would have never lost you. From that day onwards, I promised myself that I would do whatever I possibly could to make sure you stay a big part of my life. Forever and always? <3

Thank you… For changing me for the better.
