In any case here's a goodbye to those who've departed and are departing for the Western havens, especially my fellow Lit S chapette Shafa.
Ya'll had better enjoy yourselves wherever you go and dont do drugs. May you have many friends and learn more about life- real life, not the canned life that is all Singapore has. May you have time to appreciate what you've got and the opportunities- the vast infinite opportunities- that await. Remember: studies are your second priority. Living is your first.
And Shafa- dont brood over that issue. Friends are not just friends, they can be more. There is more to friendship than either normal casualness or red hot attraction. It's called siblinghood. And its best that way if you get what I mean. Good luck and dont be overwhelmed by it all.
