Still remember few days ago, had a gathering with my closest girlfriends. We talked about everything. The past, now and future. Life is like a drama. People judged whether we did something or not. All of us play a different role and each individual films their own debut. Fate brought all of us together, amazing isn't it?

All of us lead a different life, different background, walking alone & fate brought us together and made our paths crossed.
It requires alot to bring strangers together, and unravel the future together. Perhaps hand in hand with our lover.
None of us can predict the future, we don't know what could happen the very next minute.
I remember few yrs ago, daddy had to undergo this major heart operation and i often dreamt how life would be if he left just like this.. And i will wake up with a teary eyes.
Been in & out of NUH, visiting him daily and my heart ache each time i see him in pain but he never show it infront of me. Never.
And that's when i tell myself i need to cherish what i have currently.

Don't know it's human nature or what, but we always take things for granted. Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. It's always when we start to lose something then we learn how to treasure. That's when the word 'regret' come into the picture.
We need to be grateful for what we have instead of being bitter about what we don’t have.
Somehow, it is our nature to always want things. Then, when you get them, you get bored and want more things.

Dad & mum brought me to this world, giving me their ultimate love and care. I know i can't stay under the protection and the shelter they used to shield perils away from me. Most of my friends should know that i was pampered by dad & mum since i was little. Not forgetting, having a bunch of loving cousins, all of us grew up together. Although now we're not that close but it's nice seeing each and everyone of them living so well. Just that i kinda miss the times, all of us play catching, blind-mice, cooking the imaginary food together. Those times when i act like i'm teacher and my cousins are my students and times when we always digged out our mother's heels and try to walk with it.

I grew up and got into NYPS, one of the best/top primary school in SG. I don't have much friends in pri school because i wasn't one of the 'cool kid' or 'smart kid' back then.
All i know was play, play and play. But i changed, I rmb pri6 i was trying very hard to be the best student and role model in class. Erm sad to say, i kinda failed. LOL.
Back in NYPS, we got pink and blue form. If i rmb correctly, pink form is like a compliment whereas blue is the opposite.
I rmb i strived very hard everyday just to earn a pink form. I also joined chinese dance for the sake of keeping long hair. FYI, my pri sch dont allow girls to keep long hair unless you're in dance. Stupid school rule.

PSLE ended and i got thrown in Regent. A school i never wish i would enter.
The reason is stupid. Because i need to wear a BLACK school shoes. HOW UGLY WILL THAT BE!!! Happiest person on earth is our mother because black = no need to wash! Oh and their newspaper-alike uniform. Thank god they alr changed their uniform.
Got into the worst class, need to adapt to a new life(many typical seniors walking to and fro the corridor, finding troubles with the sec1 students)
Regent is also one of the bad reputation school in the neighbourhood. Y'know hw it's like whenever we enter into cck library and the librarians will gave us a look saying 'Oh damn, it's regent AGAIN'.
Only can blame myself for not doing better in PSLE but the best thing that could happen in life is that i met a bunch of awesome friends that lasted till now.
Did things which many typical students will do in secondary school. It's always the stage when many of us start to be rebellious. Fall in and out of love. Friends come and go.
It's also the first time i stepped into the working industry. Miss those working days, miss those xmas party celebration, miss those days we cover the CCTV with a cloth. LOLLL.
Get to know many girlfriends and another best thing is, we're still in contact now! It's never easy finding friends who truly care for you.
O lvl ended and got thrown in RP. It's not a school that i wanted too but there wasn't a choice for me and i need to be thankful that RP wants me. If not i would have waste another 2yrs in ITE.
Get to know many friends and i thank god for them because it's not easy to enter into a poly knowing that i don't have much friends here. Life got a little better since then..

So yupp, that's a summary of my life. Indeed, a very quick summary. The way that fate works, life is really amazing yeah?
Again, i need to thank god for all the people i've met. Those who made changes in my life, those who stand by me, those who give me reasons to look forward tmrw, those who love and care for me wholeheartedly.
Life is full of ups and downs. Each time i managed to overcome each stage, i would give myself a pat on my shoulder and tell myself, 'Good job Daphanie, keep it up!'
What doesn't destroy us will only makes us stronger and we wouldn’t know what is happiness without sadness.
