We Once Were One: A Story Of Classmate




WE ONCE WERE ONE
The day that we first met,
in my mind I still see,
you sitting in the class room, looking for some company.
I alone myself, sat down with you that day,
neither of us knowing what the hell to say.
But we got through the awkward times, and quickly came to be,
the best of friends to eachother, we could ever be.
The closer we grew, the more we left, the other world behind,
just me and you we jumped into a new place totally blind.
We prayed together our friendship forever, and always would stay the same,
but time has passed, only memories last, and little friendship remains.
WE ONCE WERE ONE! I screamed at you, I want my best friend back!
But we both realized at once it was that bond we lacked.
You think it doesn't hurt me, to see us back to two,
looking to my left and right to see there is no you.
But we both are moving on now, lets do it gracefully,
I hope our friendship still lives on in you memory.

I found this friendship poetry just now. I was so into it. It really touched me at the bottom of my heart. It reminds me of a school-friend of mine (it was... once). There were three of us. We were classmates Whenever and wherever, we are meant to be together. No matter where we go (to the cafeteria, laboratory, school-office, library, classes and etc.), we always go together. And some called us as "Three Musketeers".
But, this one (one of us)... I knew him before, he was such a pleasant guy. He cared for others. He cared for me. And every time when I was in trouble, he would not just ask what is the problem. Besides, he will think up something appropriate, and will do it for me. Oh, how great to have a friend like him, right? We always did online chatting with each other. We shared things and many more. But, unfortunately that was once. (ە˘_˘ە)

Nowadays, I found out that he no longer cares about me. I see that he no longer wants to be friend of mine. And as for my observation, he is such a choosy in friendship. He no longer contacts me. No longer text-messages me. I think, he has forgot me, for sure. I don't know if I got this wrong, maybe this only my self-side feeling. But, that was what I observed.

I am really sad with what had happened. But I will never forget him though. I never regret that I was once had a friend like him. He as a friendship will always stay in my memory. And I think, he is no longer my friend. He is only my ex-classmate. Whatever happened, I always hope that he will always happy/have fun/have a nice day in his life. And, I hope he will always success in pursuing his dreams. Plus, I will never forget his good offices. So long...

Tragedy: 14th of May 2011

Salam. On 14th of May 2011, I was planning to try to bake a cake, myself. So, I had looked up on the internet, to find a recipe. I had decided to try Lemon Cake, by Gia da, one of t he famous chef celebrities. I had printed the recipe. But, in this house... there were no much of th e ingredients needed. So, I had to go the nearest grocery shop. Unfortunately, no ingredients which are needed sold there. I had to find it somewhere else. While on my way to the second grocery shop, I was riding a scooter. There was a bus which suddenly overtook me. I was really surprised, and braked with sudden without noticing sands on the road. I'd lost control of my scooter, and fell down. I broke my hand, and there were so many wounds all over my body. Luckily, my helmet were not took off. So, no head injury. Alhamdulillah. I was brought to the hospital for treatment by an ambulance. I was diagnosed closed distal end left radius and closed fracture left ulnar styloid. Cast was applied for 3 wee...

When Hospitality Fails the Basics: A Guest’s Quiet Reflection

What does it take to turn a good stay into a great one?     For many business travellers, the answer isn’t grand lobbies, luxurious bedsheets, or buffet breakfasts. It’s the little things—the seamless service, the small courtesies, and above all, the peace of mind that everything has been thoughtfully handled. But what happens when even the basics fail? Recently, I had the chance to travel for work and stayed at a well-rated hotel, part of a professional arrangement involving multiple rooms. While the setting was promising, my experience reminded me how crucial it is for hospitality providers to walk the talk—especially in an industry that thrives on trust, service, and efficiency. Where It Started: The Missing Essentials: After a long drive and a busy day, all I hoped for was a calm check-in and a room stocked with basic necessities. To my surprise, the room was missing even bottled drinking water. I had to request it—twice. The staff eventually complied, but not without maki...

Driving-test Day: Worth Long Waiting For

26th of March 2009. A ssalamualaikum and good day, guys. Guess what, guys? I passed my driving-test! Alhamdulillah, praise be to Allah ta'ala . You know what, the few days before the driving-test day, I was very afraid, that I hardly ate. I lost my appetite. And I was having butterflies in my stomach. But, alhamdulillah, it was all went through as smooth as silk. Just wanna let you guys know, I went to the driving-school at 8.00 a.m., and my name was announced at about 10.45 a.m.. Fuuhh, it was a really long wait. And I started my driving-test at nearly 1.00 p.m.. I was the 179th driving-test candidates. While I was waiting for my turn, I watched the other candidates doing their driving-test. Some had passed it, and some had failed. While I was watching them, my heart beat so fast. I was very afraid, and it worried me so much. At about 1.00pm, my number was announced. And I had to start my driving-test now. The part that I was afraid so much is the mendaki bukit part. I ha...
