sherry...

when i woke up this morning i planned to go back to sleep then thought heck,i wanna write in my blog.my dear friend sherry has been bugging me to"update ur blog!"ah yes,since we're on the subject...my dear friend sherry..since it was her birthday on the 18th of october i shall devote an entire paragraph or more(i bet i'll overshoot it by a mile) to her.(ooh..i found out how to edit the font)

sherry..

sherry had the longest name in std 6,(i think it was then)..it was sherry amy ooi mei lian.gosh.what's up with that?i mean yeah,when i was in my first year in kindergarten i called myself marilyn j.fox.cos i liked micheal j. fox.sheesh.can't believe i said that.but yeah..i think she was exploring some alternative identity phase or something.whatever.(hehe.hi sherry darling)
for years,in the midst of experimenting with various different "close friends",sherry and i were always drawn to each other by one very potent factor.we both loved to write.and sherry always had a really engaging flair for writing.not that she would ever admit or acknowledge it.(aww,come on sher...then what's with the blog?!)and so we had this bond which let us peruse the wild and crazy frontiers of language and literature,our idiosyncracies in realtion to our literary pursuits and looking back sherry has always been not only one of my biggest supporters in my imagined destiny towards writing, but has also been one of the few whom i really look to for approval .not only in writing but my other artistic endeavors.apart from that,we used to have oodles of fun with our fake americen high school accent,like oh my Gawd!!!i,was like,u know,like,so glad,we,like had those moments..heh.sherry and i could so master the art of being in class yet not be there and look like we're perfect little schoolgirls.(or so we thought...bm teacher was cool,though)
we even did an inventory of our wardrobe together,by describing practically every article of clothing we owned and comparing,hehe.(yes,sher...every humiliating detail)and after all that,she had the nerve to kinda lose touch with me after our secondary school days.so glad we caught up though,huh.oh sher,forgot to tell u how honoured i was that u let me spend ur last day in penang with u and hah,I drove u around.ur a lousy driver.hehe.
to date,i have never met anyone like u,sher.and i doubt i ever will.not only taking into consideration who you are as an individual,who by the way simply dazzles,ppl.be warned!but who you are to me.i have to say we have a truly unique friendship.one i'm proud of and one that i would'nt trade for anything in the world.so,happy birthday sherry.revel in the wonder of knowing that beyond your very limited perception of yourself is the truth that there is no one more sherry than you.and in saying that i don't mean the name but the heart and soul that you have attached to it for us all to be fond of..hugs..
