5 girls
i was just stoning today and daydreaming; when i suddenly remembered a time so long ago, that i hardly think about it anymore. but it is such a happy memory that i couldn't help smiling.
a group of 5 seventh grade girls, best friends. BFFs. we were all so different, coming from all over the world. france, australia, korea, usa and singapore.
it was megan's birthday sleepover. we all had our sleeping bags, ordered pizza and coke. we played crash bandicoot till our thumbs were sore. then we just sat around gossiping and talking about the nonsense 12 year old girls talk about. boys, bitches in school, hooking up at dances, boys, starting high school, boys. and uh, boys. espcially micah-forgot-his-last-name-damn-gorgeous-green-eyes-micah. HAHAHA! okay so it sounds damn bimbotic. but, like, whatever! it so totally is not!
okay anyway. the thing that makes this one of my favourite memories, is that, we were so culturally diverse yet got along so well. from bus rides to school, to homeroom, to lunch, to after school.. everyday was spent together laughing till our sides spilt. :) and not forgetting all the shit we did and came up with.
sigh. good times.
it was 6 years ago. i still have our locket in my drawer, and all the notes and letters we ever wrote each other. it's bittersweet whenever i look through my old yearbooks.
it's amazing how far we've come. i've kind of lost contact with all of them, but i'm so glad to have known them once upon a time.
alexandra wanted to be a world famous chef.
kelly wanted to be the first woman to climb mount everest.
hye lim wanted to be a writer or journalist.
megan wanted to be a singer.
gwyn wanted to be an astronaut.
and i still remember a pact we made to meet up outside the ISB (international school of beijing) gate in October of 2010. :D
i want to be 12 again. i miss those times. :)
/edit/
look at this! i just did this career test thing on Tickle:
Gwyn, you're an Astronaut!
If you had your way, there would be no gray areas to any problem. When you live by the facts, as you do, and are challenged by a search for truth, unsolvable queries are the bane of your existence. You're a true data head. You're the super-woman the world calls when it needs to pad a case with facts, get the numbers to add up, or explore some scary, uncharted entity like tax returns or outer space. Since you're a team player and tend to believe that two minds are better than one, you can be relied upon to contribute viable solutions, and you're great to keep around the lab.
Who's like you:
Jane Goodall (famous primatologist)
Likely careers:
Astronaut, VP of technology, lab Technician, archaeologist, botanist, marine biologist
FYI, i wanted to be an archaeologist and marine biologist once upon a time too. hurhur.
