gahhh...
been in the army for like what 4 mths alr? feels like a blink of an eye. i kinda miss all my prev frens and buddies, tho i have new ones in the army. ive been thinking alot since theres always some free time here and there, for all the time in the world given to me..
for frens, i hope that well always still keep in touch, for i saw charles, ian, christopher, kaixian, joey, and some more that i cant realli rmb since it was so long ago alr.. kekeke... some from sec sch, others from jc that even i forget and they yet still rmb me... i realli have to give it to them =) sometimes, thay kinda make the day brighter, and im like dull most of the time, lol. i can onli say i can try, but most rather than not, im tired by the time i reach home, and yet i still keep myself going till the midnights. i hope u guys still rmb me and keep in contact, youll be my frens for only so short a lifetime..
for those i love, i realli miss you all =( practically only able to squeeze out a bit of time for u all, but i still want u all out there to know that i still care for u all, priorities to you.. i may seem cold, but ill be your fren in need, be there as often as i can, but i need you to tell me what had happened, for most of time im preoccupied by the higher-ups to do other stuff, and i cant get back to you fast enough.. im abruptly and really really sorry for that, because i cant do anything to help it.. if i could.. ill rush over to u, keep you company, let you know that for whatever happens... ill still be there for you, ALL THE TIME! =)
for the time now.. im reconnecting myself with the outside world.. yes, im not exactly joking.. kekekeke... time spent in here sometimes bore me to the point where i feel like breaking already, but then again, i have to endure it, with my brothers, buddies and friends by my side, everyone playing a part in this whole period of time.. thanks ppl.. thanks T_T

TO MY CHILD
Just for this morning,
I am going to smile
when I see your face and
laugh when I feel like crying.
Just for this morning,
I will let you choose
what you want to wear, and
smile and say how perfect it is.
Just for this morning,
I am going to step over the laundry and
pick you up and
take you tothe park to play.
Just for this morning,
I will leave the dishes in the sink, and
let you teach me
how to put that puzzle of yours together.
Just for this afternoon,
I will unplug the telephone and
keep the computer off, and
sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.
Just for this afternoon,
I will not yell once,
not even a tiny grumble
when you scream and whine
for the ice cream truck, and
I will buy you one if he comes by.
Just for this afternoon,
I won't worry about
what you are going to be when you grow up, or
second guess every decision I have made
where you are concerned.
Just for this afternoon,
I will let you help me bake cookies, and
I won't stand over you
trying to fix them.
Just for this afternoon,
I will take us to McDonald's and
buy us both a Happy Meal so
you can have both toys.
Just for this evening,
I will hold you in my arms and
tell you a story about
how you were born and
how much I love you.
Just for this evening,
I will let you splash in the tub and
not get angry.
Just for this evening,
I will let you stay up late
while we sit on the porch and
count all the stars.
Just for this evening,
I will snuggle beside you
for hours, and
miss my favourite TV shows.
Just for this evening,
when I run my finger
through your hair as you pray,
I will simply be grateful
that God has given me
the greatest gift ever given.
-
I will think about the mothers and fathers who
are searching for their missing children,
the mothers and fathers who
are visiting their children's graves
instead of their bedrooms.
The mothers and fathers
who are in hospital rooms
watching their children suffer
senselessly and screaming inside
that little body.
And when I kiss you goodnight,
I will hold you
a little tighter,
a little longer.
It is then,
that I will thank God
for you, and
ask him for nothing,
except one more day..............
just.. one.. more.. da.y...
