While we were still young, we used to organise our reunion gathering at club or pub, order few buckets of beer, sing and dance together. We did enjoy, but we didn't really communicate so much as the environment is noisy for us to talk. To me, that's not really called reunion gathering but it's just a party night out.
Thanks god as we grow older and older, those 'too happening' place is no longer become the place we choose to hang out. In fact, we try our best to explore more nicer place in Ipoh to held our gathering but at the end, The Browns Cafe will always become the final destination where we go to have our drinks due to the reason that other places are full of people and out of seats during Chinese New Year.
Anyway, it's not a big deal for us to go back to the same old place every year to have our gathering as long as long as we meet each other. Even there's no expensive wine or delicious meal, there's always full of happiness and laugh in between us.
Time flies really fast but the gathering seems like bringing us back to the secondary school time as we were still wearing the little light blue school uniform. Sitting at the canteen there and bull shit around. We chit chat about life, about love, about sex, about dreams, about anything and everything. No secret hide from each other. Except Sook Yin... hehe... she still don't want to show us who's her boyfriend... and all of us are still having the question mark in our mind right now... hahaha...
It's a bit imperfect that Lee Yee, Lee Yng, Li Yin and Syiao Pey unable to show up tonight. But I believe that there's still a lot of chances to have a gathering like this... as long as we put each other in our heart and mind.
"A good friend is someone we can count on, as well as being so much more. A friend is someone with whom we can relax and just hang out, have fun and share our innermost thoughts, deep dark secrets, lofty and noble goals, or our hopes, joys, and fears. A good friend allows you a safe space to share your deepest thoughts and needs without worry of being judged, criticized or made to feel silly for feeling the way you do. Friends cheer each other on, laugh and cry together, and just plain commiserate and listen to each other. That's why friends are friends.... Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything."
I feel happy seeing all my friends finally stable down in their life. Found someone who really treat them good, doing things that they enjoy doing it. We see changes and improvement in each other while everytime we meet. We share our sadness with tears and happiness with laugh. Giving support and advise to each other towards our dreams. Ain't easy to maintain a friendship, but we feel proud that we made it!
Feeling good to spend my precious time with my friends tonight. Four simple words from me to my dearest old best friends, 'I LOVE YOU ALL...' :)
