The much anticipated mid-weekday is now behind, what is left is the thrilling memory of how Manchester United successfully dodged Barcelona attacking flows and progressed to the UEFA Champions League Final in Moscow, repeating the dream which they registered 9 years ago that seemingly fading as they had previously came close to it in many occasions too. This one is even more emotional than they were during the first taste of UEFA Champions League Final back in year 1999 in Nou Camp, not because they have a better chances to beat their opponent, be it Chelsea, or Liverpool, yes, their potential opponent is Chelsea, or Liverpool, you might start to wonder if i am actually talking about FA Cup Final or Carling Cup Final, but i can assure you that i am not talking bout neither of those, yes! i mean to say, this is an All English UEFA Champions League Final, what a marvellous achivement, what a sensational milestone to mark the era of English football. As a matter of fact, Chelsea has successfully edged Liverpool off this competition, avenging their failure in the previous 3 years, where Liverpool had dumped them out on 2 Semi-Final. Even more emotional, the man who sent United through is the one who had missed out on the famous 1999 victory in Nou Camp, number 18, Paul Scholes! With an ambitious strike, he has not only sent his team through to dream on this wild dream, he also rightfully earned himself what he missed out 9 years ago, salute his genious and patient to wait with such fantastic resilience in these 9 years time!
Back to the realm of reality, 9 years seemed to be such a pain-killing long period of time, unaccountable numbers of days and nights embedded in between these 9 years, but lets face it, time does fly, 9 years is not actually that long, it is just like yesterday only, isnt it? Similarly, 3 years ago when i first stepped inside UKM, i thought i was about to have a very long spell in this place, 3 years!, that was what in my head that time. But again, look!, the end of this 3 years is only, 3 days away, and in between these, is like a dream only. Life is wonderful, and life likes to plays with the people who live it, and when you began to feel accustomed to seeing the same people and been to the same place, or when you began to love doing those thing you used to be doing in this place, it rings on ur doorstep and alert you that you should wake up and wave goodbye to it. Pathetic.
This is actually a post to dictate my gratitudes to those people who have walked across my path during these 3 years, be it intentionally(excuse me?) or incidentally, without the blessed presence of you, i would have lived a very much different life, and that means i would have a great feeling of remorse, so i really appreciate, and thankful to all of you. Some of you may have already faced this last year and already graduated a year ago, some of you, may have still another year or two or three year to salvage, some of you may graduate together with me this year, whoever you are, you must have been wonderful, because i found that everything has been memorable, been difficult-to-shake-off from my memory bank. Most of the people i associated with, they were the reward to my wise decision when i signed on the form to become a part of the big family in the 2 association i got involved into, namely HWB and PTUKM. I believed so that everything happened with a purpose, and what has happened means i have to be a true friend to those who walked across my path, i have tried to be someone reliable and helpful, but if i havent been a satisfaction to you or might have been offensive to your feeling, i wish that i would have the chance to send you my heart-felt apology. There were times i might seemed to have forgotten some of you, but i would never have abandoned anyone known to me, all in all, i’m glad that some of you have willingly shared your time with me, every minutes shared is every minute that filled positivity and happiness into me, you did what other people could not buy with money, this is magical, this is invaluable, this is lovely!
” knowing you,
is something i cherished,
it makes my life merry,
it marks a milestone.
friend like you,
in memory you never perished,
in life we stay happy,
through sms and phone.
let me tell you,
our friendships shall never ceased,
for you are one that is trustworthy,
together we will never be alone. ”
