My Road Family

Second Family. Non-blood family. Road Family.

Most of them are of my age. And of course, they are my lovely mushroomies, one-derful one-derous one-ders! HAHA trying to make special emphasis on my dearest 01 darlings. OK... too much LA now, but never mind! Time to praise everyone now! :D

The 01-ers are one of the best classes you'll find, because everyone truly cares for each other. We may gossip and all, but deep down, I really love all of them. Sometimes, they are just so hyper while I'm emo-ing, so I'll get even pissed-er, but it's alright, I still love you guys <3 just your class chair pmsing because all of you so naughty arh!

I talk nonsense with everyone, but personal stuff wise, only a few people. Megan, Wang Wei, Xuan Rong and Xinyi. I may not show it to the class, not even my closest buds, but yes, Xinyi and I are close. In Boarding, we were always together, but since most of the people lived on the other floors, you might not notice. But I really love her <3 because she was there for me every time. I love you auntie <3

I talk some personal stuff to a certain extent with the others. But the abovementioned... I talked to them about it most.

Then, the older ones. All my mommies, daddies, aunties, uncles, ahmas and everyone else. The seniors. More of the canoeing seniors. The team gave me a sense of security, and in a way, they gave something I wished my family would give me. A listening ear.

Like for council. Talking to my friends in 01 was different. Even towards Wang Wei, we couldn't talk much about it. But talking to the teachers, to the seniors, to Jiawen and Tammy was different. Advice by the older ones, I guess :) Sometimes, I prefer to get advice from the older people. They don't have to be my parents, because it's just so awkward at home now. I'm always the first to leave home and last to return. I keep on having rows, fights, arguments with everyone else at home. So canoeing kept my mind off a lot of things. I felt better being at macritchie, around the people I can trust, the people who are willing to listen and give their advice freely, without judging.

I was actually, well, really surprised when Tammy smsed me. I didn't expect Ms Tan to actually tell her about it. But I'm glad she did, so Tammy started the conversation, rather than I did, because it would seem weird in a way. But the point is that, I really appreciate what both of them did for me. Thanks for listening, thank you for all the advice <3

I love my road family <3
