I met him when I was a little girl; he gave me poetry; and he was my first

After years of being clean from MSN Messenger, tonight I have decided to download it and join the 'real' world. I grew bored of it and it really kept me away from the important things in life. It's crazy how time flies when you're online. But it did improve my typing speed... apples and oranges...

However, I am not being completely truthful with you. The only reason why I want to download it is because I want to get connected to Philip. Who is he? He was once a very integral part of my early twenties. I am proud to say that he was one of my closest friends and he was a pure Beng as well. Yes, you heard me. Ah Beng.

I met him online and no, it wasn't anything romantic. We could get along pretty well and when the friendship progressed to phone calls, we would spend hours talking about most things under the sun. Eventually, we met and as cliche as it sounds, it felt like we've known each other for years.

Years, is also how long we've lost touch with each other. I find it strangely sweet that of all my lost friendships, his is the one that I am actively pursuing. I always did refer to him as my Beng-Best-Friend (BBF).

Wish me luck!!
