~May Your Light Shine :D~

Everytime I want to surf the net for the sake of it, I will browse thru Friendster, all because I have nothing else better to do. Then I will look thru the scores of friends and their friends and see if there are people whom I know. Its quite interesting to catch up with people whom you havent seen in ages. Everyone changes and its delightful to know someone from the past remembers you.

Was looking at the friends of my oldest friend (known her since we were 5? but unfortunately never got the chance to catch up with her) and then I came across this guy without a picture. His name jolted my memory and if I am not wrong, he aint a total stranger.

You see, when I was in Pri 6, I attended this friend's church and even went to her church camp. Now on the day we were to leave Singapore (which was a Sunday at midnight), we had church in the morning. Upon arrival, being the 12yr olds we were, all the children around our age started teasing one another about boyfriends and girlfriends. Soon I became the subject of teasing and I was taunted with a name of a guy I did not know since I was pretty new to the church.

Later on, my friends told me this guy was staring at me all throughout sunday school. Completely baffled I asked them to show me who he was and I found out he was pretty cute BUT 1 yr younger. Being the 12 yr old I was, I took great pains to avoid him throughout the camp. Although I did not know what to make of the rumours, I still felt extremely awkward. However as fate would have it, there was this little boy who was very clingy to me and one day during worship, the little boy dragged me to sit next to that guy... ok thats about it. Haha, we never talked though, but now I can't help but wonder what he really thought.

Seeing his name on Friendster, with the right connections, I am pretty tempted to open what might be a Pandora box. The last time I added someone who did not know me and I did not know personally, it has developed into a beautiful friendship. But what if I had made a mistake? Won't that be so embarrassing? Suggestions anyone?
