Been a long while since I last blogged.
I was just watching the movie "You are the apple of my eye". It brought me tears, it brought me a lot of laughter, and most of all, it brought back a ton of memories.
In my high school years, I was an extremely normal girl. I was nerdy looking. My hair was always in a tight ponytail that was extremely messy... My clothes were always messy and sloppy looking. My shoelaces were permanently undone. My spectacles permanently on.
And normal is probably a compliment. I looked horrid.
I wasn't special. My grades were average at most. I had no special talents. I was average looking. I wasn't pretty. I wasn't skinny. I wasn't popular.
I was imperfect in every way known to me.
But I found you.
You gave me comfort when I needed someone to. You sent me off into my dad's car every freaking day. You waited for me after class. You were insanely annoying but yet irritatingly endearing.
And I remember all the times I'd sit down by the big window in the library looking for you in the crowd of uniformed boys. I remember all the time I'd stand by the ledge outside the library just waiting for you to finish up your training.
I remember our first date. I remember you freezing so much, your teeth were chattering throughout the whole movie.
I remember quick lunches at 7-11. I remember all the instant pizzas and sandwiches we shared while having to run back to school in the fastest possible time.
I remember that time when you were the parade commander and your voice broke.
I remember how annoying you used to be.
I remember how it was impossible to sit you down to make you learn literature.
I remember all the petty fights we had.
I remember the day you walked all the way to Tampines Mall just to try and find me because you thought I walked home.
I remember all the times you broke my heart and then mended it back together again.
I remember all the heartaches we had.
I remember how you had so many female friends that I was always insanely jealous of.
And I remember, and I remember.
But I am glad I found you. Because you brought so much tears, joy and laughter into my life. The amount of love I feel for you is probably not something that I can even understand at this point in my life. The amount of adoration is insane. The amount of fear I constantly feel for all your dangerous ways is also insane.
And I love you, and I love you.
