I stayed up late last night, until about two in the morning to clean up my side of the room. Oh my God the stuff that I keep! Since 2001, when I was in Sec 1. There was a box full of letters my friends gave me in school. We could talk to each other in school but noooo, we wrote to each other. And the stuff that was written in them spells out a whole new meaning to the words LAME and GEEK! I think I was the geekiest girl in my school. Gawd! Pretty humiliating that I didn't know that until now. Ok maybe I stopped being a geek when I got to sec 4. I think.

Some of the letters have turned yellow. Some stuck to each other. Some that are folded, are so fragile, I worried I'd tear them by accident. Some I can't even make out the words. Read some of the letters written to me by my friends. Some (now that I'm older and wiser), I could read between the lines. Wasn't that good. Some made me laugh out loud with disbelief. I can't believe how childish and narrow-minded we were. In all letters, there's at least a topic about a person they like or who other people like. Or who they dislike. Oh my God. Anyway, I threw most of the letters away. I mean it's not like I'm keeping them to show my grandchildren or anything. I only kept the special ones. =) Sigh.. Yup the special ones.

Then there was another box FULL of postcards. I used to collect them last time. But now, I can't wait to find someone I can write to and post them. In that box also, I found greeting cards from my family and special friends. It almost brought tears to my eyes as I recall the fond memories. I found the birthday card by NATALIE KOH my junior! Omg it's so sweet la. In one envelope, there were like 3 handwritten letters, then there were quotes and friendship stuff and there was this birthday card with a picture of Vic Zhou in it! It's so sweet. I miss her.

Then there was this Hari Raya card by Jaclyn and her sister and her maid! She posted it. It was so sweet ok. They personalized it so much that I can see the effort. Made me smile a lot! I don't think I'm EVER going to throw it away.

Then there's birthday cards and other occasion greeting cards from long long time ago that I think they could pass off as something buried from centuries ago.

Oh and James, I still have the brown envelope and the wrapping paper that you wrapped the book with that you airmail me. The whole package! Hahaha. I don't know why I keep them.

Anyway, I'm off to get ready to go out.

Bye.
