to pursue a dream

i remember when i first started out in KTAR as freshmen,
Mandy was already working and it was a strange notion to me,
but it wasnt that strange either cos she's always different,
i mean, its only normal if you hear her say when she look at a sofa
"i want to walk all over the sofa on all fours",
can you imagined a cat doing that on a plush sofa?
that's how i grew up with Mandy in high school,
its like, eccentricity is normal, and normal is boring.
she accepts normal, but she also has eccentric in her.
i usually attribute these to her Aquarius sign,
the unique one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
it was long time ago when she said that she wish to pursue her studies,
i was already in sophomore or senior year i think when she said it,
and she really did, she took up courses with independent institute,
it was not so long ago after i came back from LJMU UK,
i think she said that she might consider studying overseas,
which i thoroughly am thrilled to hear because no experience,
is like the experience to study overseas,
but there's one problem though, she will miss her family tons
yes, even on a 5 day holiday trip to Korea,
she cant wait to come back unlike most of us who might
wish to linger longer outside of Malaysia..... :)
Anyhow, she's finally decided to head to NZ for a year,
she actually pulled out of it 1 week ago and decide to stay in Mas,
until her cousin convince her thru long distance call,
only then she decided to go ahead, because deep down,
she knows she'll regret it if she doesnt,
i was nearly screaming on the phone when she told me the story,
im like in my head 'no way in hell ur gonna pull out!'
pardon the language, but we all know if you never tried,
you never know and you live with regrets.
and so we head out for a party, basically,
it is someone else's party but invited Mandy along,
and i tag along because she's there and i have the time,
if not, it'll be such a waste for not going,
cos i havent seen her in like....2 years!
have a safe & memorable trip my dear friend!
