Bedok Green friends and brothers and sisters and others too

Dear Felicia,
I have always wanted to let you know that I am very grateful for you. Though, I didn't really know how to tell you. So with my birthday as an excuse, thank you for being in my life.
Thank God for you, for letting me bother you when we were year 1 in bedok green. In the new environment and I didn't really know how to be sociable, I didn't have much friends then, and you were my first friend in school. Thank God for you.
Not sure if you knew, thank you for sharing the joy of reading. Before you lend me the Chinese Cinderella story, I only liked reading picture books, but after that I started reading more. Would never knew how much I love reading without you, thanks. Also, you are probably the first to introduce God into my life. Though, not through intentional evangelising, but you let me realised that there is a God that I never knew of. Again, thank God for you. And that is probably why God placed a burden for you in me, and I have been praying for you ever since I converted, which is almost 3 years now. Very sorry though, every time I saw you, I'll said I contact you but every time when I get home, and get into Facebook, I don't really know what to talk about with you. So in the end I just let it slide. Now that I think about it, I probably wanted to thank you for all these time, that my younger and still insensitive self wasn't able to recognise. Thank God for you, and I pray that you will one day come close to God once again. May God bless you, protect you, and help you find joy in whatever you are doing.


Dear Anna,
How are you and your family doing? I'm praying for all the best to you. Thanks for your coming to Singapore. Your presence had such an unforgettable impact on my life, not sure if you know it though. Firstly, thank you for introducing Chiou Torng and I to each other. Even though we were in the same class over a year, we were seated so far away and if not for you, we wouldn't even be acquaintance. Thank you for that. Secondly, thank you for your massive pool of cheer, energy and motivation. I really like your openness, since awkward little me always have trouble expressing myself and you were one of the first few people I am closed to, who are so good at unhiding anything. Thank you for your example. Thirdly, thank you for looking out for me, pushing me to study and help me cultivate better habits, diet wise and study wise. Thanks for keeping me close and being my friend, although I think that I could have been a better friend to you. Fourthly, thank you for your hospitality in Taiwan and your home. It will always be an unforgettable trip and a precious memories to me. Even though we have inconvenienced you and your family a lot, you guys were still so thoughtful and so welcoming. Thank god for you and your family in helping us to make the trip a wonderful one. Lastly, though there are many many more, thank god for being part of my life. Getting to know you and Chiou torng, knowing more about the seriousness in studying, having a international friendship, have been a big turning point of my life. I really have learnt so much from you and if time allows, I know there is so much more for me to learn. In fact, seeing how you are doing through Facebook, let me learnt more about you and your spirit of perseverance. Distance isn't a reason, it is an excuse. Thank god that he had put you the the pathway of my life, you mean a lot to me. I love you very much and I pray for all the best for you and your family. Be safe and be happy. God bless you.


Dear Chiou torng,
Did you know that you are probably the first one, other than my family, whom I had a quarrel with for nonsensical stuff? Still remember when we were in lower secondary, we were in popular fighting over what to get for our notice board. Really LOL!! Omg, how did that happened.. = = hahahaha....
Thank God for you all these times. Thank you for being my friend when we were in secondary school, for standing my monotonous humor and my extreme mood swings. That even though I wasn't being a good friend at all, you still stick by me. Thank you very much. Thank you for liking to talk so much that I don't feel bad not saying anything at all. Haha... Thank you for encouraging me to write and thank you for lending me your books. Thank you for accompanying me to JCG, and thank God for being VP together with me. It would have been lonely and helpless if you weren't there too. Thank you for sharpening my sadist thoughts, which had been very helpful in organising camps and games. Thank you for sharing all the good places to eat, and sharing your life and everything else, really. Thank you for showing me what is it like to be a good friend, and thanks for showing how to become sisters even without blood ties. Thank God for you, thank God that He place you in my life as well. This has been a very fun journey of growing up and learning more about myself. I pray that as we get older, the friendship will only gets better. And I pray that you'll live the life you want to live, and be happy with everything you do. Life is short, so don't waste time to worry or regret things of the past. I love you very much, and I pray for everything good to come your way. God bless you mightily.


Dear Marcus,
It is so awesome knowing you! Thank God that he placed you in my life. =]
First and foremost, thanks for introducing crunchyroll, the IT idiot in me would have never been able to discover the goodness of Internet by myself. By the way, thanks to you for starting the ball rolling, letting me get in touch in anime, letting me know and learn a lot of Japan, discovering that I really liked it and caused me to join TPJCG in poly and had so much fun. And of course, if not for you, I wouldn't know about one piece and chopper. Well, I would probably know it one way or another, but thank you for starting this interest of mine. ^^ and I just realised that I was first hooked to church because the person who out reached to me is an otaku too... Haha... I guess I got one more thing to thank you for indirectly making such a big impact in my life. Also, a big thank you for being a great brother. Really want to affirm you for your thoughtfulness, sensitivity and always not forgetting to be inclusive of others that are not in the circle. Thanks for your encouragements, comfort and concern during the few years in school together. You are someone who is very comfortable to talk to, and it is really a blessing to be your friend. I pray the God will keep your relationships strong with you and your loved ones, and that He'll pour so much blessings onto you that it will over flow to the people around you as well. God bless you.


Dear Zheng Yuan,
Thank God for you and your spirit of sharing. I am really blessed by you. Thank you for sharing about one piece stuff, about their events and poster. Great to have a friend to talk about one piece together^^ Thank you for always welcoming us to your house to do nails, and the stuff you have blessed us with. Thank you for going new places, and trying new things together. Thank you for your amazing and adventurous company. It is really fun hanging out with you. Thank you for not minding our tendency of weirdness and thank you for being a great friend since long ago. Thank you so much and Thank God for you! I pray that whatever you have in mind to do, you'll do it, with great success. May God protect you and help you in the challenges you face, God bless you.


Dear En Hao
Do you still remember the star shaped keychain ring I asked you to help me make? You gave me a keychain along with it too. "God is with you."
I thank God for you. The subtle reminders that god had never gave up on me since long before I even know him, and without me knowing, he is always looking out for me.
Little messenger of god, Thank you and I pray for all the best to you.
God bless you.
PS. I don't know what happened to you but I can tell you that God have not given up on you, He will fight back for you.


Ms Stephanie choo
Thank God for letting me meet a teacher like you. Not sure if you remember, I have always been very bad at studying, including Social studies which you had taught our class. And there was once when I scored extremely badly for a class test, I think I didn't remember there was a test and I didn't study at all. So when you were giving us back the marked papers, you told me to go find you during recess time. You probably have no idea how freaked out I was. I was really scared, because you seems to be really mad. And when I went to find you during lunch, you didn't blow off the top but seated us down at the macdonals tables and chairs to have a talk. I haven't got a teacher who cared enough to discuss with me why my studies were so bad and I really thank God for you that you have shown this much care and concern. Thank you for being so patient too. Ever since then, I would write notes for most of my subjects, and thank you for helping me realised how much I like writing. I couldn't thank you enough! I pray that God bless you and your family, and the students under you.


Dear Mrs Lynn Teo,
Thank you for believing in me that I can become a student councillor, it means a lot to me. I think that was the first time that I experienced some form of responsibility and acknowledgement from the outside. And feel that there's something that even I, who had terrible grades and was not serious about studying, can do. Joining the second in year 2, it was also the first time that I experience it in person and learnt that it wasn't too late to do what you want to do, better too late than never.
Though the time was short, it was fun and fruitful. I'm secretly very proud of my council badge.
Even after we had graduated and moved on, thank you for your care and concern. Thank you for your help. Thank you for worrying about me, though I am really sorry to have imposed on you.
Really glad to have met a teacher like you. And I pray that your feelings for your students each and every year will pass through. God bless you and your family.
