Tribute to a Friend

Today, some of us learnt that we just lost a friend for good. We learnt a lesson, life could be short and unpredictable. Some things that really matter, shouldn’t be left aside for later. I got a harsh reminder today. Keegan was a friend, but yet I’m ashamed to say that I didn’t know him as well as I should as a friend. Now, there is no more chances to make amends to him. So I’m just doing the little things I can do for now, including this. Better late than never after all.

The Keegan I (and who knows how many others) knew was the fun loving (Pokemon, Neopets, DoTA and who knows what else?) and chatty guy. The cute and adorable Keegan, as he once loved to label himself some time ago. To be sure, we didn’t share much of the same interest in things (but that’s a lame excuse right?). He was decent company to have around. Well, it’s all gone now. The last time I was with him was driving to AsiaCafe after movies a few weeks ago. I still remember him playing around and chatting away. That would be the first, and now the last time I’ll be driving him around. Too late for more yam cha, movie watching, talking crap together. He’s someplace else now, away from us.

Rest in eternal peace Keegan, and rest well. Hope you are in a really good place now. Gone, but you won’t be forgotten.

To the rest, courage.
