Dedicated to Jasmine Kueh Wui Thing

I'm on a blogging spree now!!

Okay, fine, this post is only on because Jasmine pestered me too.

Hence, the blog title.

She challenged me (well, more so bugged me) to write a blog post. So when I asked her for topics, she said, write about me.

So I'm now writing about her.

Jasmine. Hmm, what comes to mind about her?

(adopts the really annoying Noel's tone when answering questions) I know I know!!!

Jasmine is a really annoying person ;) who always bugs people to do stuff for her. And she never thanks them.

NEH, KEEP YOUR HAIR ON JAS, I was jk.

Well, first let me tell you of Jasmine's royal relations. Once upon a time, on a table in the school canteen (okay, mebbe not so long ago but still... :P) there lived a royal family. And this royal family was really wack but still, but still (unfortunately for the rest of us civilians) they were royalty.

And the royal lineage started off with Jeremy as King and Jasmine as Queen. (Hint: See I'm not coughing to signify anyth Jas!) *innocent look* And Sat as Prince and Tan as Princess *coughs violently* ;)

Jasmine was a very nice Queen (compared to the rest of the family *cough* Tan and Sat *cough*) and Jeremy was a very quiet King. And the Prince and Princess? Well, let's just say that they're boisterous. And noisy. And annoying. And irritating. Oops, did I say too much?

Well now, this royal family got servants (I SHALL NOT USE THE TERM SLAVES HERE) Whereupon, Jackie became the Royal Butler, Lee Lip became the Royal One-Man Orchestra (ask Tan for demo of Lee Lip playing orchestra music) Emmeline became the Royal Personal Basketball Couch for the Princess and I became the Royal Physician. We were all upgraded from servants mind you.

Okay, digressing back to the topic of Her Majesty, Jasmine Kueh Wui Thing, the first of that name (or so I believe)

Jas has been my buddy for like... almost forever. Sure there were a couple of years that we... you know drifted apart. I'm being totally honest here, okay! Yes, come to think of it, there were a couple of years where we found new friends and sort of drifted apart because our friends weren't exactly into each other. But well, we were always classmates ever since I was in Lodge. And I remember her and MTYP as my longtime buddies no matter what. Because after all, they were my very first friends in Lodge. They actually came up and made friends with me when I was in Kindy! I still remember Jas going, "Hello, my name is Jasmine. Wanna play?" It's so sweet eh? Considering, I was just staring at my rattan basket.

Yeah, we practically watched each other grow up together. I watched her blossom into a pretty, vivacious girl (don't deny it girl!) with maturity that far surpasses my own. I dunno what she watched me grow into though!

I've watched guys fall for her (Now you seriously can't deny that coz even Kim agrees). I've watched her going through her good times and bad times. I've watched her fall, I've watched her rise. I've watched her trail through kindy, primary and now high school. And though she doesn't know it, she's been a great help to tons of people, including me, more so during the past year.

Jas has been an utterly great rock during the last year to me. And continues being one too. Noel looks up to her (or so he says) and asks for her advice. I do too. Believe me, she's very level headed and can give good encouragement. Just ask her for it, and she'll be there to do it. Trust me.

She has also been my number one schemer in trying to disturb Kim. Or even to haul in money for the both of us for eg. the do-your-homework-and-sell-it-for-one-buck scheme. :P

Okay, okay, I'm starting to make this sound like a crappy love story (not that I'm a lesbian mind you and if you ever say so, I shall make you eat my fist) and making this sound too soppy. But it really is true. Jas has brightened my day more than once.

It's been a long time. From our first steps together in Kindy and now to those rare moments of laughter that we share while burrowing through SPM stuff now. She looks the same and pretty as ever. Her heart remains the same throughout those years, always looking out for her friends as always. And her heart might have even improved coz last time she was a little evil :P Wait, she still is. :D

Overall, Jas has been a great friend to me. She always cheers me up whenever I get too tense or too stressed out over my work. Especially when I'm worrying my head off about Prefectorial Board or organizing some event. She's always there, calm and cool-headed and ensuring me that whatever I do, I'll be able to pull it off.

Thanks Jas, for being such a great friend.

I will miss you when we finally have to continue on this journey of life, leaving school behind.

Cruel fate.
