Blessing ...



When Prof asked me to say something about Xiao'ou during the group meeting, I suddenly ran out of words. There were so many thoughts flooding into my mind, but I didn't know where to start. 

I'm a stranger to her, but I can feel she's so close to me. 
She's young, smart, lovely. 
She's one of us who come to this island to realize their dreams. 

However, 
she's unlucky. 

I don't know what Leukemia means to a girl like Xiao'ou
but I'm sure that's a bitter feeling. 

BUT
she's still so optimistic, 
so determined, 
so brave to fight, non-stop. 

I started missing Hwa Chin on my way back home today. It was the first time I cried since she passed away. I didn't deserve to be her friend at all, otherwise I wouldn't have known the news about she caught cancer so late. If we could have helped her earlier, just like how we are helping Xiao'ou right now, maybe the story would be different for Hwa Chin. 

When planning the trip to Kinabalu, I constantly thought about Hwa Chin. I'm sure she would be one of the members who will join this trip, bring laughters to us, and accomplish the challenge together. 

Now, I can only miss her, and the missing turned into the desire of helping Xiao'ou. I don't want to miss the chance again. So, if you are reading this post, and if you have similar experience as me, please go to www.blessxiaoou.net   Appreciate your concern.
