I've known Ed since 1999 when we were were freshmen in uni. Somehow we ended up in the same hostel. Somehow we clicked. Somehow we ended up in the same 1st year business tutorial classes. Somehow we both ended up majoring in Marketing. And somehow we ended up being Final Year Project mates.
A lot of somehows haha. Fated to be friends I guess.
I remember the time he accompanied me in a campus security car to identify some Bangladeshi worker from a lineup of suspects. That worker had flashed at me twice on separate occasions. -_-''
I remember the times when we skipped lectures to sip milo in the school canteen.
I remember all the times I was his Aunt Agony. For all his relationship woes and tribulations. Till now actually hahaha.
We didn't keep in touch frequently after we graduated but our friendship was one that was strong enough to withstand long periods of non-communication haha. He spent 4 years working overseas and we hardly communicated during that time. Yet we are still good friends now.
We've even more in common now that his son is just 6 weeks younger than Little Baby.
He popped by my office for lunch earlier on and I had a good 2hour lunch with him. Going over things like kids and jobs, to parents and in-laws and cultural differences (his wife is non-local).
Thankful for having him as a friend. :)
One of those friends where things just pick from where we left off previously without missing a single beat.
