I am a sociable person. I get along well with friends, colleagues of all levels, business associates, acquaintances etc. I can even make friend while queuing and running errands in the government offices, anywhere. It has always been my joy and passion to meet people and make friends.

Connection.. connection is something which I have never realized that I am lacking in. I make friends easily but the friendship normally doesn’t last. I can’t remember the last time I contacted my best buddy in university, I just can’t recall when was the last time I spoke to my room mate and I don’t even have her contact! A former colleague who was a good buddy also seemed to have lost contact with me. I have met many of my breasfeeding support group forum members during our previous visits to UMMC, PICU and I don’t even have any of their phone contacts! I have so many friends whom I haven’t been contacting since I left school. Is it really happening, out of sight, out of mind or am I too tied up with my personal priorities that I have no time for old buddies?

I was devastated when a close friend from Sibu smsed me to inform me that our classmate passed away due to ovarian cancer. I have not met Mei Siang since I left Sibu to further my studies in KL. She was a charming and caring girl. I remembered vividly how we used to talk about our infatuation with the boys, our passion for make-up, fashion, our dreams, our ambition etc etc. I would never have any chance to meet her again. Mei Siang, we miss you and may you rest in peace.

A lot of times, people always take things for granted until something occurs that threatens our happy state. I will be making a trip back home, back Sibu in a week time. In my previous trips home, I had never made any effort to meet up with my former classmates. It is time that I start to rebuild the connection I used to have with those bunch of nice gals and guys to re-touch our hearts sincerely.

People don’t care about you until they know how much you care….
