It may seem to be a just a simple word, where normally would be used by most if not all across the globe. A simple word of 'Thanks' regardless of what language it may be spoken in, but for this post, my thanks is given to 3 special person in my life aside from my immediate family members. Guess I wont need to name anyone, as you read on I think you'll know who I am referring to.
If you had been reading what I'd written so far, I do not think that you'll ever miss a post where I would mention about the life being in the 'Junior Leadership Program' a.k.a Juniors/Shits/Sluts. We started off by being 10 total strangers, ended up being closer than friends but the catch is this, although 9 of us was left standing in the end, we clicked almost instantly and the whole process is beyond any words or phrases that can explain. The simplest way to put it, in to words of John New would be "Its MAGIC!". I believe all 9 of us came out from it being extremely thankful of actually signing up for it and being accepted to be one of the pioneer leadership program, credit to Jason and Jack Shen, our beloved Dads.
The reward we got from it, its not just the lesson and experience gained by working together, being through the ups and downs but I would think its something we all share, which is friendship. In my opinion, a friendship so pure that I would say,on any given day and time, we would stand up for each other of us and fight. Well, that is what I'll do at least.
Being in a group, like it or not, little clicks then would be formed as maybe we just found it more comfortable being around each other. I was with two, who described me as a 'pressure cooker that finally got the rice cooked'. I was E-X-T-R-E-M-E-L-Y quiet, back then even I know that and the irony is that it only happens to me when I was around them. Not a good sign I know but how wrong could I be. Not only when the rice is cooked, they accepted me back with open arms rather than cold shoulders for being so anti-social all those while. I was a person, reborn and walking down a new path with them still by my side. If I would not have broke the shell, then I would not even meet Michelle, which is the third person that I mentioned above. She is important without a shadow of a doubt but now I would not be focusing on her.
The other two that I had mentioned, one is a friend, closer than most of the others that I got and one - although we may not look like one another, nor have the same parents - that I call my sister. They were the ones who accepted the once again functioning pressure rice cooker and also led me to the light which the product is the me of today. Although still shy, timid and not really talking a lot its already a few light years' distance away from how I was back then.
What I can take from the experience that I had in Juniors, aside from the fond memories we all share together, is this. The brand new me but I do not think I would ever reach a point that I would say I found myself as I think no one would be able to say that. I believe that the whole Juniors experience would mean more to me than to anyone else, not saying its not important to them but yea....you get the point. Which is why, my passion for the Student Council and the new batch-es of such Juniors programs is burning ever so strong. People may think that I am lifeless, being so committed to the Council just to get a piece of paper at the end of it. But trust me, I know what changes it can bring to an individual and lucky for me, its all the right changes.
Well, I think I am running around in circles with this post trying to say one simple thing but as how I started this post, its beyond any words or phrases but I tried. Hope it make some sense to you if you are reading this. Lastly, to the 3 of you, I do not know what else to say but for the simple word, which is..

ReplyDeleteYour Welcome! haha.. *bangga.... lol.. And gosh! I cannot believe you remembered the slow cooker comment.! But well, you know it's true.. ;)
Anywayy, just wanted to say (besides your welcome that is) that your passion is a good thing, because being passionate about the things that you do is important, and it's absolutely great that you know of all the good that it has brought to your life because most people go through life without truly savuouring and appreciating the things that have changed them.
Oh and of course I wanted to ask as well, why the sudden the dramatic/emo-ness my dear brother?? We the readers are not used to it.. haha..
And yes, lastly, "She is important without a shadow of a doubt but now I would not be focusing on her." Well then... You better make sure the next post is ALL about her then.. x)
Hehe. About writing a post ALL about her in the next post, well I will see into that. Most probably will be after this Friday lor.
ReplyDeleteGot emo mer? Just looking back mar, savoring the good times as I think you could see what is coming next...
