a star

a star

So very much wanted to blog yesterday but jus couldn't find the time. sorry ppl, having been updating you guys. haha. i'm so much better this week. thanks all for the concern.

Oh ya, i saw a star yesterday night! it was an awesome sight! it's large, flickering with red, blue, green, orange, purple! jolin was the one who asked me along when the astronomy club people spotted that particular star. they then brought their equipment all the way from 7th storey to the 2nd storey! wow. it was very efficient of them! everything was set up in just a few minutes! saw seraph on the way and asked him along too! haha. yupss. and we were like so amazed by that star. through the telescope, it looked like a diamond with various colours. it's lovely! how amazing God's creations are!!!

Seraph said sth that struck me that night. i cant remember the exact but its sth like, probably we might have ever past by this star before, but we didn't pay particular attention to it. i agreed.

You know, sometimes we go through life so fast that we didn't realise things around us that are so special. it's only when someone asked me to look up to the sky and see, it is only when i really invested much time to observe, then i know how beautiful that particular star is. likewise, sometimes we just have to slow down our pace to look at the friends we have, to really invest time in them and to understand them indepth. not jus superficial chats like, how are you, i'm fine, thank you. but really, heart-to-heart chats. heart-to-heart chats are like looking at them through the telescope. only then will you realise sth beautiful abt them. you will also be able to understand them better, like, why do they behave in a certain manner and not find them weird. personally, i think that friends are like stars. they light up the dark and guide us through our journey, even at times we don't realise it. but when one is missing, you'll feel that the sky is much emptier and dimmer. then you'll start missing them, especially the brightest one that had caught your attention and the one that you've invested much time in.

After gazing for like 10-20 mins, that particular star gradually, noticingly descended and hid behind the sch building, beyond our view. only then, we reluctantly left.
