It has been a while since my last post. Much has happened since - very much indeed. Only not too long ago was I agonizing over unrequited love. Troubled by unappreciated overtures that left me heart broken, crest fallen and forlorn. My fondness for her wasn't reciprocate and I was sad.

Yet a series of serendipitous occurrences that proceeded that situation brought beyond much needed relief to my wounded heart. Had I not left my completed ES1541 assignment in my room. Had I not met Yik Ting. Had I not mistake the camp date. Had I not been by chance assigned to her group. Had it not been for that fateful night. Had it not been for Boon Peng. Had it not been for all these, I would not have met and kept in contact with her.

Coincidences becomes improbable if not impossible. I remembered pondering if I would ever find a someone who I would be comfortable with. Someone who I could allow into my world, a world of vulnerabilities and insecurities that insofar as I am concern, not many, if any has seen or will see.

The past five months - though short it may be - has imbued in me much, experience and lesson alike. I am blessed with extreme rationalism and pragmatism. I may - at times - be too much of a realist and thus become pessimistic, but I will always strive to be honest for I see merit in such a trait. Nothing is certain in this ever-changing world except this - as the days become weeks, weeks months, I am beginning to develop an attachment for this relationship, for the person, for you. It is very much early days, but everything - however grand - has its humble beginning. Ours started five months ago, and long may it stand the ever so cruel scrutiny of time.

It's not the time we spend together, but the time apart that made me realize how much you have changed me, however gradual. It has been two years since my grandmother left me. She will forever occupy a special place in my heart. But it's about time someone else enters into my life. In his time, in his time.

Thankful to him for everything I have.
Thanks Jesus.
