The file is classified. All I can say, is mutual causes, mutual friends in 2005.
I totally understand your feeling of belonging more to the world than to one place. I have ancestors from five different continents.
In 1998, she just starting on her Ph.D program and I in secondary school musing over everyone being silly about love on Valentines Day:
Me: I think everyone’s been bitten by the love bug.
Her: Love bugs don’t exist. I’m a scientist, I should know!
:P ;)
She’s a classmate of mine at college and also close friends with one of my best friends. Cool girl :)
It was the day before Malaysian Idol auditions in 2004 and I was in college. I was randomly talking to college people when I bumped into her – it turned out that she was going to the same auditions too.
We went to the auditions together and decided to hang out in college by the next semester (it was already hols during the auditions).
Ever since then, we’ve been close friends.
