The Departed - get real

I'm an emo. And right now, I'm feeling damn emo.

Just came back not long ago after sending my best friend to the airport. He had to fly off to Brunei for his OCS training. If it were other people, I would have hesitated driving that far from West to East since I had never driven all the way to Changi Airport before. But for the sake of my best friend, I did that! And that was the first ever time! So I went over to his house to pick him up before driving over to LiJiao's house since she wanted to tag along as well. After that we just went on quite a long journey to Changi Airport. Thankfully for the clear road signs in Singapore, I managed to reach Changi Airport smoothly. And there were so many cars on the road man.. some New Year Day holiday trips to be made I guess.

So we had Fish & Co at Terminal 2. Aaron was feeling extraordinarily emo all the while. I could sense it. A change in him is easily noticed by me since I have seen him change ever since we were 2 years old. And I actually know what's causing him to feel this way. Having to go through 9 days of Brunei training inclusive of 5 days of jungle training is no joke. You girls will never understand the pain, or rather the mental torture. Anyway, something urgent cropped up last minute just now. Aaron was supposed to gather at 2359 with the rest of the cohort. But around 2315, he noticed that the rest of his friends whom he saw were wearing long white sleeve shirt while he was wearing a white polo tee. He panicked and called to confirm with his superior, which to his anxiety found out that he had to be in the white suit instead. We were all in a frenzy, trying to look for alternatives, calling every possible friend for help. Then Lijiao called one of her friends staying in Bedok. After much persuasion, the friend took a cab down and reached the airport at 0000. What a close shave! Though Aaron was marked to be a bit late, at least it wouldn't be that bad, I hope.

Anyway, leaving was a hard thing for Aaron of course, not exactly because of the dread of the whole thing, but because of the mental instability to cope with other near-home-close-to-heart issues. I totally empathise with him. All I can hope for him is that he can remain strong throughout the whole journey. I pray that he will do well and excel in whatever he does.

1st Jan 2007. The first day of a new year and we were at the airport. It shall mark the soar of a new beginning. We shall take flight and soar to new horizons!

I shall believe in that. :)




And I'm already beginning to miss him...
