Scope

I think I don't have one.
I don't even know what's bothering me all this time.

I accompanied my mother to bring my sick baby brother to the doctor's over at Marine Terrace. Although I shift all over, the only place that I could walk around blind-folded is Marine Parade (and the place is not a west-side wannabe, Fariz). Not many of my new friends knew this, but despite the many big houses I stayed in, my second home was a 5-room HDB flat over Marine Terrace, around the vicinity are my primary school and secondary school, my grandmother's place, all my closest friends live around the area, and the old favourite hang-out place, Parkway Parade.

As I stepped into the familiar place, the feeling of nostalgia just naturally comes in. My mom parked her car at the carpark opposite KC, at the block where Rosanne, my favourite bimbotic shopping buddy, stay. Rosanne was KC's Latecoming Queen during my time, ironically she lives 500m opposite the school. Something very familiar to what's happening now, her mom would constantly call me to check up on her, just because I'm the more responsible one out of the two. Rosanne was my primary 6 best friend, and the both of us 'renewed' our friendship when we were sec 4. I miss that bimbotic shopping buddy of mine.

Adjacent to KC there's a private apartment where Vanessa stays. I remember going over her house back in the day for projects and stuffs, her maid is super friendly and her younger sister simply adores me ( I have no idea why), 'cause she claims that I'm 'sexier' than Vanessa. I love going boy-crazy with her, 'cause she's the ultimate boy-crazy girl you've ever met. I love Vanessa to bits, and I know she's the only one that won't allow any boy to steal me away from her.

Adjacent to St Pat's locates Rachel's forever-upgrading bungalow with a pool! The girls and I love hanging out at her place 'cause not only is there a pool that we could just dip in anytime, she also has an enetertainment room , something like a KTV lounge, and all those gizmos. Vanessa, Deepana and I seem to be part of her family already, after all these years. And it's super hilarious to watch Vanessa either hunt or oogle over Rachel's twin brother 'cause she has a huge crush on him, the only guy her age that she has a crush on. I wonder what she sees in him, 'cause all I see in Rex is Rachel.

I can't wait to hang out with my girls again, soon. We had so many dreams together, go backpacking in USA when we're 21, sign up for the Amazing Race, be each other's bridesmaids when we get married, laugh at each other's big tummy when we get pregnant, make all our kids each other's playmates and beyond, overall have this lasting friendship as long as we live. I love my girls dearly, not forgetting my baby, and they love me too (:
