These four days had really been a very tedious process for everyone. From thurs til today, everything still seems like a dream. But of course, we all know its not. All tears held back flowed down badly today. And today, me too, cried it hard loud. I could no longer hold them back cuz you, my dearest friend left for eternity. I know God had brought you to another better place, a place we will all meet eventually.
For clifton, everyone will move on strong. Cuz i know you want us to be happy and not grieve over you. At least, i'm proud of you clifton. You are indeed a very good and popular guy that everyone remembers. You did everyone proud. You did 08 proud. You did your family proud. You did your gf proud. You left with glory.
For charlene,
Although we have no encounter with you before, but pls be strong. Like you know, clifton wants you to be strong and happy. Its definitely a tedious and sad process but i know you can do it. Stay strong and smile. Clifton will want you to smile sweetly cuz you are his queen. You are warmly welcomed to join us on behalf of him. Anytime, anywhere. Jiayou! 08's behind you!
For clifton,
Its tough to accept the fact that you, the most important guy in 08, left. As the leader of 08, its hard for me to accept someone from 08 left. We bonded so strong over the years and your departure was a big blow to me. I bet with the guys i wont cry but i lost, badly. Its a fact that we cant change that you will no longer be physically present for future 08 gatherings. We will all miss you. But like i promise you at your wake, i will bring along your spirit wherever we go, whenever we meet. And, together, we fulfill our promise made on 1st September 2006, 08.08.08, we'll meet to celebrate. For you, for the bond we all created. An unbreakable one. And also for you, i will organise another 08 chalet. Although i got no more love shaped luncheon meat, birds chatting, go-go power rangers from you, i will always remember those times you brought joy to the class. All the fun and laughter. And lastly, i gave you the present you always wanted, something that belongs to you from 08. A book just for you, just for our 2LT Lam Jiahao, a book no one have but only you. We've read everything and showed everything to you. I hope you are happy. You will never be forgotten as you are always in our hearts. I will never forget you. I will remember your words, voice, smile, etc etc.
And last but not least, I want something from you. Pls promise me you will come find me in my dreams whenever you can. I got lots of things to share with you. This is the only thing I ask from you.
We love you Clifton. You are once a 08, forever a 08. We'll meet you at the end. 家豪，好好上路。
And to all others, treasure everyone around you. Clifton taught me that nothing’s for granted. It jus take 5s to sms your fren to say I love you. You never know this 5s means lots to your friend. Treasure and cherish every moment with everyone so you wont regret. At least, I never regret my times with Clifton. I had fun, lots. I’m proud I’m his friend. I am, really.
We all need time for this wound to heal and we hang in strong together, hand in hand. Jiayou everyone. Smile for Clifton.
08.08.08, so near yet so far. Its a promise I will fulfill to you. And I salute you, 2LT Lam. I miss you Lam Jiahao. Go, go, power ranger..
