Big Weekend!
Friday, May 26, 2006
I've been waiting for this weekend for a long time. A childhood friend from Asia is coming to visit for the weekend. Ming and I have known each other since grade 4 and have miraculously kept in touch through handwritten letters for the entire 16 years since I left. Doesn't that boggle the mind that we still keep that up?
I've always found myself in limbo sometimes, having moved here when I was 12. So many of my friends here have a long history with many of their friends, whereas my friends here only know me as an adult. At the same time, my friends back home only have memories of me as a child. It's nice when there is the connection of both past and future.
The last time I saw Ming was about three years ago and it was a very brief time because I had gotten a horrible reaction to Singaporean strong coffee. It'll be so nice to have her for two whole days and to show her a glimpse of my life here in Toronto.
