E.R.N.I.E.
On a more optimistic note,HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY ERN!
-To you, my friend of 11 years and counting. I miss you.And to all the times that made you and I who we are today. Baking carrot cake for Teachers' Day. The clubs that we set up (remember the BSC Fan Club and the World Wildlife Travel Club?). Getting irritated at Jennifer's faux Canadian accent. Devising plans to make Cheryl less sticky to you. Losing shou ce's (though that was only you!). Angel and Mortal games in shoeboxes at the back of the class. Suzy's Zoo stickers. Our 'yarping' secrets. Endless letters on brown paper and scratch 'n' sniff notepads. Social Studies projects (remember Sarah's classic "A taxi is a car painted blue"?). Irritating Miss Jac Tan with our "When did you first throw your teddy bear out of the window?" questions. Charades in the swimming pool. Recess at the rice stall with a mountain of brown gravy and potato slices. Frozen H2O packets. Preparing for the stupid Lion King song performance. Flowers at dance concerts. Slumber parties at Gen's. Ice-cream decorating contests (we made a clown with an inverted cone, remember?). Sucking on warheads and seeing who could keep a straight face the longest. Talks at Thomson Plaza. Church together, for the first time in 8 years. Two hour runs to burn fat (!!). Sunday afternoons studying at the weirdest of places (remember that time we paid $7 for a stupid Nectar drink?). Picking ratty small bites for lunch, and then bingeing even more. Picking gourmet chocolates. Salsa classes.- I love you Ernie (only I am allowed to still call you that now!) Come home soon.
