P.J is such a small place to be.

Incident 1- JPJ office

2 days ago, I accompanied my sister to the JPJ office at the state to renew her driving license. On the way walking to the office, I met Brandon, my college mate who took a few same subjects as me last year. He curled his hair and it looked very different from his previous hairstyle, the "Rain's" hairstyle that I recall. We greeted each other and kept the whole conversation to a 2 minute long. It wasn't the first time I bump into him as I met him at his workplace last time with my other college mates.

Incident 2- On the way to Federal Highway

Then another day while I was driving and paused for the traffic lights, I looked out the window and surprisingly I saw Valerie's parents waiting on my right. I waved to them like a ShaPoh until they saw me! =) After that, we went on to separate roads when the green light was on, but car-meet-up incident was very out of expectation and slightly lightened my day, Val's parents are one of the friends' parents I'm familiar with, partly because the binded friendship Valerie and I have, and the neighbour relationship we share. There was one year whereby I met Val everyday from Monday-Sunday because we joined the same society on Saturday and self-defense class on Sunday. Those were the days I had with Valerie.

Incident 3- Fotosun Digital Image shop

Today, I went to take passport-size photos at a digital image shop in SS2 but unfortunately I was told to either change into a shirt of a darker colour or to wear the provided L-sized coat, which the length of it is quarter longer than my usual one. I decided to go home and change it because I feel it's a must and since I'll be paying, I'll make sure I look alright to worth my pay for it. On my second return to the shop, I met Melissa, my secondary classmate when I was waiting for the photos to be fully developed. In a small shop, a afternoon, of all places, it took place in a photoshop. Everything happened in that 20 minutes of my stay in the shop, and we met in between that, how coincident was that.

This chain of series happens one after another and I feel strange as these places aren't very highly crowded public locations, moreover I don't visit those places regularly. Some people claim this as fate, but I think it's disarranged plan for me to meet up as many friends as possible before I leave, in between my packed schedule. Friends have been grumbling on my schedule these days, I feel bad as well because those are the unavoidable things needed to be done, such as Visa application, air-tickets arrangement, course registration,training for my work, becoming the driver of my both nephews etc, I feel dried up at the end of the day(head straight down to the bed). Speaking about farewell, I'll leave it to all of you to decide it , whether to do it big or do it small. What I really seek for is the quality of time I spend with the good friends here before I fly off.Gah, going to celebrate birthday alone this year =P, don't laugh at me okay? Hahaha, I think there'll be more self-celebrating birthday to come in the few coming years.I've the most invitations during my busiest time, I feel extremely bad to turn down every single of them, but I promise will settle everything as soon as possible so that I share equally good time with every one of you. That's very important to me.

End of the day, I can't help but to agree with the saying , P.J is such a small place to be. With the limited people I know, I still managed to meet few out of the few.
