To Jonathan Lee (1986-2009)
Hey,
The memories when we first met still lies in my mind. You know, the first time when I settled down my emotion that Germany will be a great place for me is because of you. I remembered cleary that my mom told me that there's a senior also from Kuching studying in Germany but not in Baden-Württemberg. And I thought that might be a thin chance to meet someone outside this state.
That was my thoughts when I was back in Malaysia.
Then, God surely knows how to throw me surpises and yes, I actually met you. I still remembered that we first met each other during Das Festival 2008. That time I felt how to spell h-o-m-e for the very first time. To have someone back from the same hometown Kuching, that feeling was certainly clear and will be remained clear in me. It certainly a thin but significant chance. You know, Das Festival 2008 was special to me because of you. I still remembered we talked about Kuching while eating the fruits dipped in Chocolate melt. Well, I treasured that moment a lot, because so long, so long I had none to talk with about Kuching. We chatted. We laughed. We talked about the best things in Kuching. We talked simply about Kuching. About how you were told that a junior from Kuching was coming to Germany and how I was told that a senior was studying in Germany. God drew both of us close together.
That was the Festival 2008. On the last day I actually prayed that we would be meeting each other in Festival next year (2009). Then... you got cancer. Although we did not go through a lot of stuffs, but I do dear you because we from the same hometown. After all, it is a fact that Kuchingnites are most friendliest people in Malaysia, or the whole globe, I dare say. It was a shock for me, because I never expect people in my generation to leave us, forever.
But if our good Lord calls you back, He must have prepared something else for you. Your 'departure' is certainly a huge lost to people around you, for you are a great person. I still remembered during Festival you became my translator to understand Pastor Marcus Rose's sermon. I still remembered the fun times when we jumped across the yellow fields, doing different expressions, different styles, burst shots, timer shots... Yes, I remembered them clearly. You will remain as one of the best seniors who I've met in Germany.
I respect you, Jon. You showed a character of a man fighting the hardest and suffering battle in life at such a young age, something that I really respect you for. Rest in peace, bro. It was really an honour and privilege to know and meet someone like you. Your presence will be missed. I feel sad whenever I think about you, but I also feel happy and proud because I got to know someone like you. Rest in peace.
God bless,
Vincent

Restless rested.
Hehe, guess what, the holiday starts today.
Actually it started yesterday. But I spent my birthday night rearranging my room. Yea, you can call it a change in FengShui but honestly, I don't believe in those things.
Anyway, finally I can have a good rest, after so much of works and revisions. I'm not expecting good results, as I've screwed up the very first paper and thus had a bad start. Well, I don't know. But I guess, yea as I turned older, technically we're growing older by every small increment of time, or dt. Sorry, stucked with those terms quite some times. ANYWAY, as I turned older, I noticed some 'aging' signs in myself:
I was chatting with a friend that day about how I tend to lose memories, either short term or long term. Well, I remembered vaguely that I asked her before when she is going back to Malaysia long time ago. But that day when we chatted I asked this very same question again, and if I'm not mistaken, the same very words. Then I was like, deja vu (whatever you spell it), "a black cat passed by and then another same one..." "Is it the same cat?" " I don't know.."
No no no, I'm stucked in Matrix again. I mean, I felt like I've asked before but I couldn't retrace the answer. Sigh. Felt awkward when I asked her again. Maybe one day I should buy myself a rememberal ball, similar to Neville Longbottom's. What's wrong with me?
Secondly, I noticed that my over-clocking potential has dropped tremendeously. Seriously, I recalled that last time my maximum power (work done over time) is around night time, but nowadays, I got myself a big headache instead. And then I told myself, before sleep, I will take a aspirin pill, but guess what, the problem 1 occured and I totally forgot to take medication. LoL.
But I'm happy, now that my room is once again tidy and clean. Even the air also nicer. Feel like opening up my windows, but it'll also mean that tomorrow I need to clean up my room. Germany is dusty.
Anyway, finally have a much deserved rest, throughout the weekend. Monday I need to start on my programming project. It must be done in next week.
