Today is public holiday, which is New Year for Muslim. It is a suitable day for me to go out with my friends and gathering after I screw all my assignments and my exam (yesterday). I suppose to go to Sibu today and the plan is cancel because of certain reasons, so I have to plan to go Sibu next week with my friends and hopefully I can do it and go further to Miri if possible.
So I went out with my friend Ricky which we have not met for nearly 4 years and others buddies. He is one of my best ‘bumi-putera’ friends I have. We go to play badminton during the morning. This friend of mine physically do not change much since the last time I saw him, just his mustache is even more longer and look mature a bit. We share our 4 years experience in about 3 hours, and we still have not finished our topic because there are too many to be discussed. So during the badminton matches we only have a few matches in the whole morning.
He told me that he really miss our school life, where we spend our time together in doing school events, tease friends and teachers together, manage our prefect team, camping, cooking, travelling, cycling, and tackle some girls. Is just like the incidents were just happened yesterday although is already 4 years. We talk about all of our classmates on where are each of them is but at last we do not manage to know where all of them are because we have lost contact with some of them. I event bring him back to our school last time, many things have change, from the colour to the student and then to the physical looks of the secondary school. We both smile when we look at it, a lot of nice and remember able incident come to our mind. He takes a few pictures as memories. We saw that the ‘Herbs Garden’ that is initially create that by us have become more beautiful, and the tree that plants by us have grown tall is nearly my height now. We are very proud.
He tells me that his old habit of only look for Chinese girl friend still has not change. Although many girls like him in his college, but all of them are not interested by him. He told me that, all of the girls often say he is ‘cute’ that is why they like him. Then he asked whether I currently have girl friend or not, and I tell him that I am not as handsome as him, there are not many girls interested to me. I tell him that all of them are not the pattern I like, and majority of them interested on me because I am more ‘mature’ in their opinion. I really do not believe that I am mature, gishhhh….. :P
Then I bring him to Boulevard and The Spring Shopping Mall to have a look and took some nice pictures there. Thanks to our friend Steven who likes to bring EOS camera and took our pictures ‘professionally’. He tells me that Kuching really change a lot in 4 years time, and he really likes Kuching. He hopes that he can do his practical when he finished his studies, because Kuching people are friendly compare to west Malaysia. He said that Chinese and Malay in west Malaysia are ‘divided’ in their daily life, as ‘bumi-putera’ they really suffer because they are at the middle, so they have less choice for friends there.
Before we split out, he teases me to help him to look for a Chinese girl friend when he come back next time, and I agreed to help him with a happy laughter. I hope that he will find his love easily and faster, and success in his studies and work in the future. Of course, I hope the same things will happen to me too. Also hopefully the next time we meet; we will be more different and changes on either physically or mentally, may luck be with us. :)
