we getting closer to each other in 1999. bendan sat two rows behind me in class. bendan was still shy and quiet, so we always bullied him (mind you he is no longer shy and quiet now :p). 

the only conversation we had initially were:
"can i borrow your scissor?" 
"can i borrow your glue?"
bendan even brought nail cutter to school with him everyday, so whenever there is spotcheck i will be the first one shouted for bendan to ask for nail cutter :p 

we were in the English singing competition together (together with a group of people), and we got first runner up in the competition (if i'm not mistaken). 

in one of the practices (we went to someone's house for practice prior to the competition), i was sitting on a chair, and bendan came late, there isn't enough chair so i jokingly offered him to sit together with me on my chair, and guess what, he really came forward and sit next to me. i was shocked but acted normal :) 

we both joined St John Ambulance at that time, for some reason that i couldn't remember now (might be due to his encouragement), i signed up for a camping that held by St John Ambulance. It was a terrible experience. i can't/don't know how to set up the fire for food, so i was starving most of the time, then this kind-hearted bendan came to me with instant noodle every night. 

one night, it was raining (or it wasn't?), we were "trapped" inside the camp. I saw his little "secret" in his wallet. He had a glow-in-the-dark 明 made by him in his wallet. It was written: to ming, from wei (or something similar), obviously he wanted to give that to me but wasn't daring enough to do that :p 

then on our way down the hill (it was a steep slope all the way down), i kept falling because it was raining the night before and it was slippery, again this kind hearted bendan never left me alone, he followed close behind me and lended me a hand to hold on when i need. After i reached home, i was covered with scratches and cuts all over my limbs. So i blamed him for asking me to go for that stupid camp :p

to be continue ...
