♥ 11:11 PM
From: Elizabeth Chin (AKA DA JIE!!:)
I know this email comes at a weird time, I mean 5:30+ in the morning. A bit crazy, huh? But well, you see, I just read this book by Cecelia Ahern called The Gift. And cried like for an hour. Give me a few minutes of your time and read through this mail please? God I can't believe I'm writing such cheesy shit myself. But at five in the morning, how can I explain myself. Alright, I'm not good with summaries, but do bear with me k. The story was about this work-obsessed cheating rich dude called Lou who meets this poor beggar called Gabe (Gabriel) and his life kinda starts to change when he encounters these weird things Gabe does. Lou was like so obsessed with himself and his work and stuff that he practically like ignored his wife and kids and family. Then, well. Spoiler, but Lou died in the end in a car crash on Christmas' Eve night. But before that Gabe kinda gave him like some 'magic pills' that let him split himself into two to be in two places at a time. And just before he died he ate the last pill he had. Then he took the chance of the remaining few hours to spend with his family and telling them how much he loved them and all that shit. And then, come morning, he was gone. I just, well, writing this kinda brings me to tears again. God this is so embarrassing and out of character for me and this is going to go to so many people, I'm afraid of showing my face in public again, lol. Well, IN CASE I die or whatever (stupid imagination), I just wanna say that well, I know I haven't been the best person like since forever. I'm pretty much very work-obsessed (I'm so sorry Tiffy & XW & SR cause you guys endure my shit about how 'time is of the essence' during project meetings...) and I sometimes, okay most of the time, hurt people's feelings out of carelessness and ignorance. But if I'm going to die anytime soon, which I hope not, I want to like say that well. I'm sorry for all the shit I've done and whatever I could have offended you with and thank you for all the awesome stuffs we did before. I know that was kinda vague, but as much as I like to brag about my English (yes I know I'm damn conceited and all that shit, sorry), words really escape me now. Wow, how Christmasy huh. You're receiving this mail on C's Eve too! YAY. I just want everyone to know that if you've received this email, you've probably been friends with me (and I hope you are still my friend?) and we've probably shared a word or two (or an hour or five on the phone). And I want you to know that even though I'm a bastard most of the time and have probably dissed you like several times, thank you for just being you and existing. Cause there's a saying that people you meet mold you (though I hope it's not true cause I can look in the mirror and tell you all the evil I see). No, really cause you've all said/done something that impacted my dumb brain and that's why I remember you as my friend. I could name everyone, but then the email would be so long it'd crash the whole of cyberspace HAHAH I'm so funny right. :/ Anyway.Thank you for taking the time to talk to/instant message/sms/call me in the past. I know I haven't been properly appreciating everyone, and yes, I'm ashamed to admit that I might've stood some of you up when we were supposed to meet up too. Shit I realise I'm such an ass. Anyway, in the spirit of Christmas (what an overly used phrase) I just want to let you know I... Er. (This is kinda hard, cause I don't like to say these kind of shit out loud.) Just thanks for everything and I'm sorry. And I would really like to have coffee/lunch/dinner/a walk in the park/five minutes if you have it to spare. Just maybe to talk. Or to IM. Or sms. Or hug. Or act gay and freak people in public out. Or randomly point and laugh at people. Or copy each other's poly term break homework (kidding). So as of this 'new year', I'm aiming to be less (what's the correct word here) ANAL about school work and more mindful of the words I throw at everyone, and also spend more time with people. I know it's hard cause everyone's social network is so damn huge and we're all busy people who have clashing schedules but hey, if you're willing then I'm willing. My number is like below, in case you lost/deleted it... :/ I hope you guys don't feel grossed out by this email. If you do/did, delete it and we'll pretend the never happened. :D Okay lah. Enough of my 5AM-turned-6AM gayness.MERRY CHRISTMAS to those who open this before Christmas! MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS to those who open it after!I hope no one thinks this is awfully insincere or anything. Cause I guarantee plus dunno what chop thing that it comes from somewhere deep inside my small screwed up heart ): Once again, I'm sorry for everything I've done. Thank you for everything you've done for me. And please do take care! (FOR THOSE OVER 18, DUN DRINK & DRIVE THIS CHRISTMAS!) Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year! God bless (god I haven't used that phrase since I left church :/). With all my love (and I mean it this time, I know usually I'm so fake and insincere and all that. Sigh),Elizabeth Chin aka Liz aka Lizzie aka whateveryoucallme.(Shit now must go and attach all the emails. SO LEHCHEY!!! ASDFKDKFDKK! Okok I'm going to do it now.) -- Elizabeth Chin
