It's always difficult to pen down my feelings whenever I received a sudden depressing news.

Jeremy Ng Wei Chong; a primary school friend of mine; lost his life during an unfortunate accident during the week of Christmas 2011, which his motorcycle collided with a cab.

Reports were shown on the papers and news, Facebook entries were placed but I didn't notice it at all. Maybe I was busy at work, maybe I was engrossed with soccer, maybe I was just mad about my Playstation3.

I felt guilty. Guilty for not paying a little more attention to the friends I missed out. Paying attention to their replies of "Hi" and "Bye".

I could say, we had great times when we were young. Recess was all about fun - visiting the library, playing catching at the canteen and many more. We attended Scouts together and went to door-to-door for donations.

Once in awhile, I do have the chance to visit his house for some games and relaxation and I still could recall the whole collection of balls, literately balls (for soccer, netball, basketball, tennis, ping pong, etc) and list just go on and on. His family members are nice and it's always been fun whenever I visit his home to play.

Time past. Secondary education splits us to different schools and there was no way of contact point till Facebook appears. He managed to add me and talk to me but it was all short conversations.

We have grown, and yes from missing a friend till founding a friend yet I lost another instantly. I felt rather worried for his family as his elder brother was the only one left in the family to take care of all matters.

Thanks Mah Chin Wah for telling me what happened and I really wish to pay my respects to him, one day, of course.

I felt the pain when I heard the news but I didn't tear. I was much braver, calmer than before. I had learn to grow up as a young man, to control myself from these hurt.

I thought being extraordinary could make my heart, filled with steel, no pain, no fear. Yet, the news just reminded me that I'm born human after all.

Till then, my dear friend. Rest in peace as the gods will guide you to a better place.

十一年过了，我们却没机会对彼此问候。
但四年之间的友情，我会深深的记住，无法难忘。
再见了，朋友。
