` 11:44 PM
As i sat quietly in front of my table...silence falls around me...slowly i pulled out the 2nd drawer..rummaging through the layers of papers..i come across a booklet..outside written "56/04 Bravo Wing "....i opened it..and read it again...5th time?..perhaps....i looked through the pictures..think through the words...then i pulled out a huge book..with a photo of myself on top..nicely laminated...on the first page...'
Today is my first day here, feeling abit weird in the new environment.....'
i couldn't help but think that time really passed that fast?...i continue my hunt in the drawer...took out a nice cover photo album...started with the photo with the letters "EN"...how could i ever forget?....i have yet to complete the album...and i will do so...looking through them...7 months in the blink of an eye....time....
Pulling out the 1st drawer...lie beneath the piles of receipts and envelopes....i took out one which has been left on one side...one which i still do not know how to face it....to rejoice or dread?...
'Dear Mr Song, We are glad to inform you that your application for undergraduate studies has been accepted, commencing in October 2006...............However, we would like to point out that should you be unable to provide substantial and adequate fundings for your studies, the college has no means of providing any form of assistance......'
Suddenly the surrounding feels so quiet again....no one talking..no insects...no cats..no cars....total silence.....
i realised i am the connection between the past and the future....now...at this moment....
what can i do?
~Mr Jen has spoken.
