9 missing, including one in the States and another in China.We…don’t exactly make the perfect group. There’s this love/hate thing going on since the beginning. Almost everyone among us knows how much we hate one another at some point of time… Haha.
In a matter of four years, things have changed so much that we don’t get to hang out every few weeks or so. Especially when two of us are overseas for internship and study abroad programmes. Others have gone on into society while the rest still struggle to finish their last remaining laps of school…
Would I be the current Wanni if DGT didn’t happen? I’ve really thought about this. Around the time when I met Jiahui and Huiling, the other friends I had outside of school were… pai kias. Ah Bengs. ‘mats. Those whom you see playing basketball at night with smoking breaks.
I was like the person who walked on both black and white (will make sense in Chinese), able to get along very well with them although I studied in a good school, didn’t play truant and didn’t smoke.
But give me a few years… maybe I would have taken the same path as them?
I’m thankful for DGT. Love and hate relationship…
Sometimes I wanna roll my eyes at them (and they will do it to me too) cos we are known for being stubborn, and feel very annoyed that I cannot please everyone.
But other times…
I wish time will stop so that we can just cherish that moment of everyone laughing and clapping their hands at some absurd remark… or the peaceful talks that we have while lying on our beds and talking in the dark, not even bothering to look at each other while we speak. As if everyone had rehearsed, we will take turns to talk on the certain topic.
And slowly the short silences will get longer and longer until we fall asleep.
Ah… those simple things…
