Cherish them even after they're gone.

In the midst of lecturing lecturers, sounds of keyboards being typed at, powerpoints shown on the screen, nodding heads of classmates, turning their attention back and forth the front and their computer/laptop monitors, I stumbled upon a blog. A particular blog of an unfortunate soul. The girlfriend of a guy. A guy who had just recently passed away in the most unusual circumstances. My classmate's cousin. Reason of death I won't state. But he did leave a whole lot of loved ones and to chance upon the blog of the one most loved (besides his mom I guess) by him is heart wrenching.

Reading through the posts before and after that unfortunate day, I could see the deep contrast in the feelings of the author. From happiness, joy and a healthy kind of missing to the sad, empty in heart feeling. It was like watching a sad love story playing back and forth in real life. It was just like the ending of...SEPET. But me with my hard as stone feelings didn't cry. Why? I never cry. During funerals, during deaths, during breakups, during failures. Nope, not a tear in my eye.
Why? Is it because I'm insensitive? Is it because I'm cold hearted? Real men cry, as some would might say.

But this brings me to another thing. To cherish my loved ones. No not family. They're already up there. Stuck there with thick cement like glue. Nothing can push them of their perch high up in my loved ones hierarchy. But it's that special one that I'm talking about (no guys not Jose MOANrinho).Some say that it's teen love (cinta monyet). Others laugh and make jokes on how I go all lovey dovey with her. But hey, don't you ever want to NOT go lovey dovey with your very own special one? Not me. SHE IS SPECIAL. Nuff said.

On another thing very dear to me:

Come on RedMen! Liverpudlians! Kopites! Let us pray and hope and support the team you love. The team made up of different, special, unique individuals who bring glory to the name Liverpool FC. Founded by John Houlding, moulded by Bill Shankley and now run by Rafael Benitez. Let us sing loud and proud for the club we all love and let us don our red shirts, kits, jerseys with pride, regardless of the outcome of tonight and show the world that we are proud to be Liverpool supporters and WE WILL NEVER WALK ALONE.
