Where should I start with this… perhaps to start off the whole post with whatever happens in the morning till afternoon.

Somehow the idea to drop G a SMS came to my head while I was trying to sleep last night. As I had down 2 cups of Chinese Tea, so due to the effect of caffeine, it kept me awake for a while. So in the midst of trying to get myself to sleep. Thoughts of this person, G came to my mind. Thinking back it had been almost 2 years since we last communicated. Its like after the abrupt end to our SMS, we stopped all form of communication until today. So in the morning decide to pluck the courage to drop G a SMS, while keeping my fingers crossed that, G will reply. Well, got a reply from G an hour later and from there we start our short conversation via SMS. As expected, after 2 years of no communication, the conversation was kind of formal. But at least a first step out for a start.

Anyway later in the day, got a call from my this God Mother that I known during my days working at the private school. Though we had left the place for many years, but we still keep in contact. Somehow, during our days there  we will always encourage each other, as the place was governed by this crazy HR that creates hell for everyone that is not on her side. This God Mother of mine is also one of those (I got many God Mothers) that taught me a lot of those Life Skills (作人的道理) that till date I still remember quite a bit of it. Anyway, the purpose of her call was to invite me to her daughter’s wedding. As she mentioned that since we had both been trying so hard to meet up and catch up, might as well use the happy occasion to meet up, as she will also be inviting a few of the other ex-colleagues as well. I guess it does seem a good reason for a nice gathering with the few of the folks from the old workplace. Some-more over a joyous occasion.

Thinking back, 2008 seems to be a good year for marriage. As till date, including the upcoming wedding invited by my God Mother. It will be the 6th wedding I attended for this year alone. A new record set for the number of weddings attended for this year by me.
