It's been 4 months and 13 days. We've had the most amazing 4 months and 13 days. It's almost like we've known each other for a long time, maybe in our previous lives or something. We just clicked and things just flowed on so smoothly. Gosh it doesn't feel like its only been 4 months. "I'm glad you gave me the chance," he said. That was so sweet. We were just reminiscing on that day when he messaged me from out of the blue while I was having band practice in school. His number looked familiar but I couldn't remember who it was and I replied ,"Who are you?" and then things just started from there. Time really flies when you're in love...
We went to Ngee Ann Polytechnic today for the SSCD Paralympics try-out sessions. It was just a one-day even organized by HWA and by SSCD to let the handicap try out different types of sports so that they can discover their inate talents or arouse their interest. He tried wheelchair basketball. He's a natural. I'm impressed by the ease at which he (and those other seasoned players) can aim and shoot. We're going for the basketball training session together on Wednesday.
We met quite a few familiar faces at NP today. The usual expected-to-be-there people were like Judy, Gillian, Sherena, Dao Yong and Theresa. We also met Kathy and parents , Kay Choong and brother, Jovin...I also saw Rafi, Zaki and family, ShinMing and family and a couple of other TeachMe kids whom I recognise but cannot remember their names. It was like a gathering of old friends. Kathy was so excited to see me she ran all the way and she looked as if she was going to ram straight into me. She's grown taller now. We exchanged handphone numbers and she messaged me "I want to tell you that I miss you very much" That's so sweet of her. I suppose Kathy and I have this connection between us. Somehow, I don't know how, she's kind of very attached to me. She's happy to see me and she'll run up to say hi, and then she'll join her friends again after that. She's quite an amazing little girl (Okay, may 15 years old isn't that "little" anymore, but I've known her since she was in primary school so I kind of treat her like a little sister) You might have read about her in the Straits Times some time back when she did very well for her PSLE results and was featured in the papers. She's an inspiration to everyone. Through her, I've learnt that you don't have to limit your own abilities just because others have limited you. Her keen sense of learning and self-driven motivation is something not everyone of us, even the able-bodied, are capable of. I'm blessed to know her as a friend and happy that I have played a role in a part of her life, no matter how insignificant.
