Blast from the past

I came across some drafts that I had written a few years back. Stuff that happened, that I thought noteworthy but didn't want to post on my blog. Maybe I was a little embarrassed by the sentimentalism? Or did I just feel that it was too early for them to come and read about themselves on my blog? I don't know now, but when I read it back, I got all warm and fuzzy inside...good memories are like that.

I hesitated about posting them up here, though. It happened so long ago, after all. And in a way, we've drifted apart. I don't think he remembers doing all that stuff. Even I had forgotten all about it, until I read about it again.

Then (since I was browsing old posts) I came across this quote that I had found in 2010:
Friends come and go, but it doesn't make any of them less valuable while they were with you. -Philip Wang
(I got this off his blog, but the link doesn't work any more, so I guess it's pointless to put it here)

True. So why not? Why not share a little fuzzy feeling, a little smile, a little good news? So here goes:

At that time, I was playing badminton every Wednesday after work. We get off at six o'clock, and badminton starts at seven. I would usually leave at around six-thirty.

That day, we couldn't finish something (I can't remember what we were working on). Here's what I jotted down the next day:

Yesterday, past 6pm.

"I don't think we can finish this today. You go and play badminton lah."

After I came back from changing clothes:

He tells me about the problem...partly?? Then: "I'll tell you tomorrow lah."

Kena halau... I ♥ my senior.

He kicked me out to play badminton.

Jamie shared some links, saying "so cute", followed by the links.

I copied the whole block of text to a notepad file to look at it later. But later I moved to Jonathan's computer to test out the serial connection, while he moved over to mine. He had to restart my computer to use it...and he saved my notepad file. Not just once, but twice! He saved a first one under the name "so cute". But there was a blank space (a file I'd just deleted) on the desktop, so the icon went there and I guess he didn't see it. So he saved it again, under the name "socute".

I found all this when I came back to my computer. And that really made me laugh. :D
