the weekend…(8/11-8/14)
i just got back from a weekend with the bruhas…it was a weekend intended to be a break for all of us who have been so busy living our daily lives…but it was more than that…
More than anything, it was a weekend of self-discovery for me. I got to know myself even more…I learned to appreciate the simpler things in life…I got to know more of my friends of 14 years. I always thought i knew who they were…but being able to share a room, a bathroom and a tiny refrigerator in a 20 sq. meter condo was a totally different experience…I learned that Has is one of the most patient girl with the widest sense of open mindedness. I learned that Eng has grown to be more than a pretty face but a woman with character, substance and principles. I learned that Christine, although almost ready to be a bride, still has that childlike heart. I learned that Joanne, though almost absent the whole year through, still is a part of this group….and I learned that even without Anne with us, we will still continue to keep her part of the happenings….Bottomline is, I learned that i am trully blessed to have these girls with me…Not only do they know, believe and understand me, they also accept me for who i trully am….complete with my strengths and failures…
Now, were back to our own little worlds…and i miss them dearly…i miss the early morning struggle to wake up and the constant fighting over the mirror…and even if i’m back in my spacious room with my comfy bed and 4 pillows, i find myself missing the feeling of having to hug just one old pillow while being able to talk and listen endlessly about each others’ daily struggles…Until next time brus….Hong Kong awaits!
