Jeremy Piven: "This is the time of my life."

i'm reminiscing about a lunch meeting 2 weeks ago with a friend i hadn't seen in a long while.

maybe this is a little belated, but i couldn't bear to live with the guilt of taking time away from work to do something as frivalous as blog.
that said, i have no problems blogging in between an assignment that was due and completed 5hrs ago and 2 presentations in 11.5hrs and 14.5hrs respectively.

so i met up with a dear old friend two fridays ago.
dear because he is a special friend, and old because, well, he is. haha. happy belated birthday.

so yes, that was the purpose of the meeting, a belated birthday celebration for a now even older friend.

lunch was a simple affair, a free meal at long john's jurong point.

we then sat at the landing of boon lay mrt and chatted for the length of some 3 trains.
it was rather sweet, sitting at a windy spot of the landing, with our feet up on the marble seat, just talking.
my fears about not making it through year 4, his assurance that things will get better, that everything will work out in the end.

seeing him again reminded me of how much i miss him, and how much i love him.

is it possible to love a friend who is male?

i suppose i do love my friends, like huazhen, kim and priscilla.

and yet, it isn't quite the same.
