Friends for life

When I look back at my life, at the different phase in life, there are friends that you will remember for the rest of your life. Friends who made a difference at some point or another. Friends who matters..

I still remember:
Kindergarten - err.. no friends (was a dropped out kindergarten kid)
Friends at sekolah rendah laksamana, kota tinggi. - each year my close friends changed..
Darjah 1 hijau (1980)- was close to Siti Zalifah
Darjah 2 biru (1981)
... to be contd


Nneka's visit has made me realize and appreciate the type of friendship that I have with certain people over the years. We were all living 'global' together, there's me, Berenice (Mexican), Ruping(Chinese) and Nneka (Nigerian). Each bringing our own brand and flavour from our home country into that 4 room flat in Victoria Hall. It has been a memorable and great experience each of us, (I know) are grateful for. We had fun, sharing experiences, thoughts, recipes (we even had our own international dinner- me cooking nasi lemak, ruping- cucumber fry & chicken (halal)-tofu soup, berenice-choco cake, and Nneka (special mash potato- not Nigerian but equally delicious). Altho we are now world apart- with Bere just got married on Saturday in Mexico city, Ruping -still enjoying her time in Guangzhou, Nneka working in London and myself in Kent. This I have to say is a truly international friendship.
