Joy today is the smiles of family. The joy of a birthday celebration.

Joy today is the return of a dear brother, knowing I'll always have him there. Joy is having a listening ear, a familiar voice amidst my sadness. Thanks Sij. Couldn't do without you.

Joy today is easy laughter and seeing a familar face. It's the luxury of lounging in the heart of nature with people I care about. It's about having fun with family and those I love and those I couldn't do without. It's about knowing that I'm loved and that I mean something to a dear friend. It's about creating memories too beautiful to ever fade away. Most of all, tday's joy is knowing I've lived another day to its fullest.

After our orchard xmas lights escapade today, I was zonked but now I'm sitting here and flipping my album of BH photos. Tiredness expelled. I look at each and thinking about the happy memories we had. I miss going to KarYee's room for DMs. I miss vivi mummy tucking me into bed and covering blanket for me everynight. I miss vivi mummy running into my room to have late night chats. I miss teasing saich. I miss chatting with Wiz and Sal. I miss Raymond's superb culinary desserts. Warm fudge choc cake, crepes, choc ripple cake, tarts... I miss everything. Strangely enough I miss even the mistresses coming around to nag us. I knew I'd miss it all. But I never thought I'd miss it this much. I roll out of bed and think to myself each morning, oh i'm back in my room.

I miss the life of that big BH family... Vivi Karyee Noella jie Saich Wiz Sal Nong Tina Bess Carol Carmen Carmen I'm missing you all..
