have i ever told you i love you?
today's entry will be on da. yes, my beloved da. it starts from the first time da got me a gift.

i still remember the first time da bought me a gift. it's a bag of cookies from famous amos. received it on the day we met up to go over to mi to check out the place. we were supposed to meet at clementi because da wanted to go get some stuff first. who knows, it turns out to be a bag of cookies for me! i think da went all the way to town to get those cookies before heading to clementi. thanks da. thanks.

the days in mi were great. we went to school together in the mornings, meeting weird taxi uncles who spoke to 2 students in hokkien. and a few taxi uncles who took us on a roundabout, thinking we didn't know the way. haha. we came home together at the beginning, with weicong and guotai. slowly, we began to have our own lives in school. however, the morning meetings were consistent, till the day da withdrew. from then on, i started taking a long bus trip to toh tuck all by myself, for about 2 weeks, i think.

da's birthday falls on jan, which is during the mi period. wanted to get a wallet as a gift but i never had the money. can't be helped when i am such a glutton.

da and i stopped meeting when jae started. then again, we never met even before pae so it's life back to normal. we will only see each other when we somehow bump into each other on our ways home. those chances are rare, considering the fact that we live really near. on my birthday, da came over and gave me a doraemon coin bank and a can of doraemon sweets. had a good chat before parting. that day, da also found out i retained. guess da's the first to find out other than my classmates/schoolmates. life goes on till a little before da's birthday. went shopping with ahma for presents! a fragrance and a pullover. we wanted so much to keep it for ourselves right? ((: ahma said i splurged but hey, you splurged months later too. so, peace. heee. anways, da said it was the most thoughtful gift ever. maybe it was said with the purpose of making me happy, and guess what? it did. (:

bumped into da twice this year. once when we were messaging when da suddenly called and told me to turn around. there da was, just walking behind me. amazingly,da recognised me from the back. haha. another time was when i was wtih merv when we saw each other. only managed a hi and a smile because i was talking to merv. the last time we met was to pass me my birthday gift. da was trying to be thoughtful and got me a wonderful gift. now, it almost never leaves my side.

in all, i just want to say thank you to da. for being here for me all the time. you never fail to brighten up my life with the little thoughts. you never fail to show me concern at the appropriate times, like you can predict whatever is happening. you might not know this but, you gave me the strength to continue on the journey. thank you, really, thank you. no amount of thank yous will ever be enough but, thank you. and i thank you once again.

a song that goes out to da.

Celine Dion - Because You Loved Me

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed I
'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

da, i love you.
