Hey hey, yes, I have ran out of immediate family members to talk about. So now, I am going to talk about my friends, the 2nd closest group of people in my life, after family. Who should I start first? How should I go about writing it? Well, its my blog, so I decide, hehe... Maybe I might do person by person or in groups. I am not sure right now. But one thing is for sure, there are friends out there that really made a great difference in my life. People other than friends, etc teachers, tutors, older people, will be included some time soon, in a near future which I do not know when will come. Now, onwards with my friends.
My 1st and only best friend. Best is subjective, because during that time, he was my only really close friend. Thus, being my only close friend then, I would alway call him my 1st and only best friend. Although nowadays we hardly talk, he will always be in my heart as my only best friend.
I knew him from primary school. Primary 2 in fact. He was a transfer student, and he happened to transfer into my class. According to reliable resources, it was his mother that was the 1st person to link him with me. His mother was with him on his 1st day in my class, and looking for people to be his friend, his mother chose to talk to me, and we exchanged phone numbers. That was the 1st day I got to know my best friend.
Thereafter, we began to hang out more often. I did not remember any facts, dates, or any specifies. I do remember I had a great time with him. I always hang around with him during recess, playing catching during our lower primary levels, and soccer with the rest of the class when we were in P5 and 6. We were very close, almost inseparable.
During the PSLE, I was hoping that we could get into the same school, and carry on our friendship. However, that hope was not realised. Although he was usually the one with the beter grades, I scored slightly better than him in the PSLE, and we had to have our separate ways. We promised to meet up often during our secondary school days, but I was too occupied with my secondary school life that I did not really get to meet him at all. Eventually, our friendship grew less and less close, until it became almost non-existent. Till now, I still blame myself for not being the active one in keeping our friendship intact. He was always the one calling me, asking me to go out, but I rejected him a few times, as I had my secondary school CCA training to attend.
Anyway, this is also one of my life regrets, not being able to maintain my friendship with my best friend. Now, I do have some close friends, but I still feel bad for being the contributor to the lost of my best friend. This is also why I cherish my friends so much. I do want to lose another friend because of my mistake again, not that I have many to really upkeep either.
No matter what, you will always be the one, my best friend, the one and only best friend I will ever have in my life. Without you, my primary school life would be very boring and dry. FYR, I wish you all the best in whatever you do, and hope to see more of you in our class gatherings, if I am invited that is.
