In Loving Memory of the Bestest Friend Anyone can ever have -
Jordan Tan Jun Jie (30th March 1990 - 15th February 2009)
This is one of my favourite photos of Jordan, cos it really captures who Jordan is. & he is wearing my hairband.
The other favourite photo is of course, the other one that I posted on the other post, which is also the one on Wanbao & NewPaper.
JJ, you have truly been a great friend to me, as well as the rest of us. I will miss you very much, & even though right now I'm hurting very much, I know I will let go in time to come. There are so many things to say about you, but when it comes to putting it down black & white, I just don't know what to say anymore. Jordan, my only regret is not seeing you today before you were cremated. You know that I would never attend a funeral/look at a corpse/watch a cremation. But I did all of it for you. JJ, I know I always tease you about alot of bullshit, I always complain that you're damn slow & whatsnot. But I always go to you when the rest bully me & make fun of me. This experience has definitely brought the clique much closer together, we only regret that you are not here to be with us anymore. We are no longer a clique of 10. & we are definitely not the same without you. I want you to know, that you'll forever remain in our clique. Everytime I think of you, I'm reminded of all the fun times + crazy moments we had together. I can't believe we didn't take a photo last last Friday at our clique buffet.
I'm so glad you're in Heaven with Jesus right now, bet it's good there for you. Lucky you, no Bchem, no Mobio & definitely no INAC. I'm glad I did the right thing after struggling for two nights at least. I'm glad that I can say that I have no regrets at all. Some people may regret doing things, or regret not doing things. But I have none. You know I'm not good with words, I can only process & write things out.
Like what Tim says, the biggest impact you've left on us is your selflessness & that you always tried to make time for all your friends regardless how much it took of you. I will never forget your smile, your laughter & the first time I saw you on our first day of Poly.
Your memorial service is tomorrow. After that I hope that all of us will be able to have a proper closure. Jordan, you will always be a part of my life, you will always be my good friend, & you will always be missed. Every other class outing/bbq/chalet we have, know that we will be thinking about you. Yes, I'm upset that I will never see you again, I can never talk to you again - but I trust that one day, we will be together again.
Thankyou for helping us realize that we should really treasure what we have, & cherish all our friendships/relationships. You have been the biggest blessing in my life. & I'm so thankful for knowing you.
I Love You, Jordan.
