La Thi Mo

Today I'm writing about a wonderful friend who has been such an amazing part of my life.

I think we either had lunch or had a merged P.E class together, because it was then that I met her.

Or so she tells me! I really don't remember much of those first few years. Just memories here and there. But she commented on my other blogsite, einnarox. So I'll go from there.

2002 - My first year of Highschool - Mo was in Form Class 8.2, I came late and I was put into 8.6 (apparently we were quite cool..!)

Mo and I didn't spend lunches together, but we did catch the train home together, with our good friend Wendy Truong, who looked after us and made us laugh a lot !

In 2003 - I left for Wynnum North High, and didn't come back to Sunnybank til about Term 3.
Everyone welcomed me back with open arms, and it was good to have familiar faces to talk to.

We celebrated Mo's birthday at school, and I think we skipped school to go get her a cake. We use any excuse to skip school! So this one had a plus!

In 2004, Mo left for Macgregor. I think it was 2004. We hardly ever saw each other, except when my bus vroomed by Garden City. I was still living at Tingalpa at the time.

More often then not I would go about and do my own thing, forgetting that I had such a wonderful friend who was close by.

In 2005 - I started my other blogsite in 2005. Mo continuously supported me and kept in touch with me.

I accepted God into my life early March, and I was so enthusiastic, I always found myself talking to Mo about Him.

Mo accepted God into her life not long after I did. We were now sisters, in Christ.

I loved that the most about my relationship with Mo. She was kind, genuine, honest and giving towards me.

She loved me with a love that I could not describe. I feel safe and that I can be myself around her, because no matter how weird, kooky, embarrassing I am, she would always laugh along and accept me, without any questions.

Mo's love for me, was like an older sisters love that I have never experienced. I was such a lucky girl to have her in my life.

Never once did she lie to me. Never once did she try to gain something from me. Never once did she leave me out in the cold to freeze.

She would always hug me, and tell me that everything was going to be OK.

She would always make me laugh, even when she isn't feeling that great herself.

She would always sacrifice her own needs to meet mine beforehand.

She would always make sure that I wasn't hungry.

She would always help me with my maths homework/assignment.

She would always be there for me when I needed her.

She never judge me for all the things that I did wrong.

These are the comments she posted on my blogsite. It still encourages me to this day.

For one of my birthdays, she bought me a name chain with astro-boy on it, I still have it to this day.

We graduated in 2006. On our graduation day, Mo met us at Sunnybank Plaza - where we use to always hang out and eat subway :)

Mo and I thought about moving in with each other. I would have loved that. Because we would have the opportunity to grow even closer to each other, and annoy each other with our annoying habits! OK, maybe not Mo, but my constant Hand washing, cleaning and alphabetising/colour coding and size organisation. We would have friends over and cook for them, play board games and always go out together.

I didn't see much of Mo after that, I just see her here and there, we'd chat on msn and text each other.

It wasn't until she started working at Easy Way that I saw her on a regular basis because my Lindy was a GC Easy Way Pearls addict. Mo would always give her discounts, even though she didn't have to. It was so generous.

I was always so busy and caught up in my own thing that I never called Mo out to have lunch/dinner or a catch up.

Funny how this all goes back to Ttran?

I met Ttran through Hop, who is Mo's older brother. Who I have always admired because he was such a gentlemen, righteous, and polite.

He is a role model that, in my opinion, most guys should follow.

Well, I started to really like Ttran, he made me feel safe, protected and loved.

Things didn't work out for us though. It would have been so perfect though. But who said that life was meant to be perfect?

I thought that it would be a dream come true, had Ttran and I ended up together, which was the initial reality, because I thought we were heading somewhere, and that our play days were over, we were both ready to settle down.

Hop would be his Best Man, and Mo would be my Maid of Honour. I couldn't think of anyone more perfect to witness our Marriage then Hop & Mo. Tony and I both have one sister/brother, and they could be the the groomsmen & bridesmaid.



I seeked Mo for comfort because I was really hurt that things didn't work out for me and Tony. I felt as though she and I have a big gap we need to fill. I felt really bad that I only ran to Mo when I needed her most. She told me that there has always been a connection between us even though we hardly see each other. I really wanted to believe this. But she was being nice to me, making sure that I don't get hurt. I felt the gap between us growing ever so widely, and it hurted me.

I have lost Mo.

I wish I didn't say some of the things that I did. Some of the things I should have just kept to myself and not drag her into the mess that I was in. I should have sucked it up and pretend to be stronger then I really was at the time.

I still feel the hurt that I've lost her.

And I realise that Mo has changed, she was now a stronger person. She was now closer to My Linh, and I honestly feel so jealous.

I'm jealous that I can't do the things with Mo that My Linh does.

I've lost such a wonderful friend, and I don't feel like theres nothing I can do but cry.

I really wish that things could have been different.

But they're not and I'm rambling a bit.

I will touch up this post later.
