Neighborly Lurve

Did this collage for my dear final 4th year neighbors...
Felt all nostalgic compiling them while I was rummaging thru the countless memorable pics taken for the past 3 years...

The first year of ridiculous 6am IBG trainings that initiated our bonding...

The late nights spent chatting (or rather crapping) about...

The regular choc/dessert sharing sessions (i.e. fat distribution program :oP) tt always seem to foil our weight-losing attempts...

The notorious roars of laughter from the "Noisy Wing": daylene's unstoppable high-pitched guffaws, farah's & my sudden outbursts, olea's alto cackles, ophe's & liyi's soprano laughters, felie's hurhur chuckles, cj's, dandan's & jiayun's somewhat more civilized giggles...

The rare and ever-delayed neighbors' outings (50% attendance would be considered a success)...

The many DnD moments late-night practicing for my 1st year pageant item, burning & double-sided taping cloths to conjure up suggestive harem ladies or kinky snow white & 7 dwarves costumes (well, the lesser the better, since we were on a budget anyway, haha)...

The years of rag dances enduring backaches, blisters, absurd body paintings, skimpy costumes & stripteases...

The ever-elusive "Swimming coachings for sherry" program... when ah?? (ok maybe I should contemplate achieving washboard abs & chopstick legs to squeeze into them skimpy bikinis first, lol)...

True, I haven't been much of a block/hall resident for some time... Had surrendered to the fact tt I simply don't possess the inhuman stamina to endure those countless activities and yet attend lectures w/o falling asleep or going "huh?" every 5 seconds; decided instead to switch to the Selective Enthusiasm mode before I collapse from breathlessness...

Call it getting old(er), being a chao mugger (tho it doesn't really justify the cap, haha) or just being plain lazy/boring...

Whichever the case, I feel fortunate enough obtaining sth meaningful out of hall-life, particularly the special bond shared with these special babes... since I'll always be assured knowing they'll be the ones understanding & not being judgemental of my disposition and my rationale for doing the things I do... and most of all, being there when I needed sound advice or a shoulder to cry on throughout an emotional rollercoaster ride of self-discovery...

Thanks for everything dears, hope our bond will be as strong as ever even after we've turn grey-haired n wrinkly 40 years down the road aye? Heh :o)
