Of new beginnings

so i was thinking a little about this
and it actually got me quite emotional
i mean imagine
if your parents suddenly drop a bomb
and say
"hey we're moving to (insert country here)"
what is one even supposed to feel?
what about all the people you're gonna leave behind
think of the friends you're leaving
your family.
e v e r y t h i n g
everything that you've known all your life
the street that you grew up in
the different parts of this island you know so well
the national day
the patriotism when singaporeans come together and help each other
how are you not gonna miss that?
what if i don't wanna leave?
can i stay?
i'm not ready to give up everything i've known all my life
i'm not ready to start a new
i'm not ready to wake up in a new environment
away from the people i've known all my life
and the people who i haven't
but it feels like forever.
it makes me want to treasure every single minute with everyone
because how many other times like this am i gonna have?
but if you had to...
then i guess.
you gotta go your own way.
OKAY
friendly note:
i'm not implying that i'm moving


anyway
friends.
friends are the same people who cheer you up
make you smile on a bad day
keep you happy (:
but teammates?
that's
f a m i l y 
TEAMMATES are the same people who've seen you, and cried with you and been through the same pains as you when you're at your worst.
the same people who root for you, cheer for you, and are the proudest of you when you're at your best.
i would hate to lose anyone like that.
it's like losing family ):
but here's the magical thing about family love:

no matter the distance, it won't affect your relationship. the miles you put in between each other makes you treasure your family member even more. at least i have you in my life in some way rather than in no way at all.

even if it's with a heavy heart
that i have to bid you farewell
but if it's gonna make you happy
then go for it (:
because it's your happiness that ultimately makes me happy
all the best in whatever you do
you've been our cheerleader when we needed you to be
now we'll be yours (:
so blessed to have met you (':
i teared while writing this HAHAHA
