the friend request that sparked off a series of thoughts.

i had this random friend request on facebook today.
and i contemplated for a long time on whether i should add him because 1) we had no common friends. 2) that name sounded uber pseudo. 3) his profile pic looked damn beng. 4) i dont add strange people.

then i decided to look through his profile and all, and found out that, hey, he is from ntu! so i MIGHT know him after all. but that profile picture really didnt help much. then i decided to pry around somemore and saw a few familiar names whom i recognise as jie's and peezac's friends. ok, so that's another possibility that i might know him too. curiosity piqued. and i went on further to look through his photos... click click click. err still have no idea who it is. he just looked like another guy trying to act cool. then that sense of familiarization grew... hmm... i think i know him! and it hit me, gah, tt's like.. my long lost primary schoolmate! the last time i saw him was during PSLE. haha.

pseudo name aside,
ahbeng looking profile pic aside,
i was glad he made the decision to return to facebook.
and glad tt he still rmbered me enough to bother adding me.
i decided to just msg him for the fun of it, because, hey! i was excited about finding another exclassmate!
then he said smthg along the line of me being his first friend in primary school.
(everyone say 'awwww' now.)
he made my day unknowingly, not because he rmbs me or because he said that i was his first friend.
but because he brought me back to my primary school days.

i miss that 6 years in peichun. alot.
they were undoubtedly the best years of my life.
people often say that the 4 years in secondary school will be the ones to mould a person.
but it was those 6 years in peichun that moulded me.
even though promises of "keep in touch!" "frenzzzz 4eva!" were made, we still broke them somehow as everyone grew and had their own circle of friends in sec school.
glad that some of us still managed to find one another and meet up once in awhile though...
(:
we may not be the best of friends anymore, nor will we be as close as before, yet, i know that we will nvr forget each other somehow.
at least, they can be sure that i will not (:
