801号房. . .内心深处的心声

Sometimes I ask myself why life is so hard on us. I thought I can skip this question for a while, but no this uncertainty just pop up today.

News of Peter’s misfortune hit me hard. I got a call from his wife. Her shimmering voice sends shivers down my spine.

Sometimes, I conjecture what is Life?

What is the connotation of Life? I tried and tired to reminiscence what I learnt during my Dharma Class. Nevertheless, I can’t recall any. Why can’t I recall any?

Is life really that meaningless? Why does heaven needs to be that unsympathetic on us? Why? What wrong have we done? What erroneous has Peter done to make him go through this?

He has a successful career, a beautiful wife and a loving family. Why does he have to meet this adversity?

Is it all about karma? Why Karma always has its spell on those who are kind and good?

I don’t know. I’m really tired out. I lost my mood today. I really lost my mood today. I had lost my friends to traffic accident, SQ007 catastrophe and illness. I hate all these.

We all shall pray hard for you Peter, we know you have strong will, because you are our main pillar in design and aspiration.

No doubt, I always remember what you have taught and I used it on my work and our works.

Honestly, I cried. I can’t recall how many times I cried. I don’t know. I really don’t know. I tried to put up a brave front. However, my parents knew who I feel deep inside. They knew how much I respected Pete.

Sorry, Joey, I can’t pull myself together. Sorry Kent, give me sometime and I will pen the proposal by tomorrow morning.

Hey, I should stay strong man! I should be, as we need to rally that spiritual energy and pray for Pete’s speedy recovery and to his wife and family.

Pete, get well soon and we all love you!

Stay Strong Pete… We want you to wake up soon and get well soon. We want you to walk with us throughout our postgrad journey.

You have to be there to see us graduate! We will pray for you and your family, especially to your wife, who’s due next month. Peter wake up, you have a baby waiting for you!

And you have your family and us little brats like us waiting for you to come back to us!

Friends out there, gather as much people as you can pray for him! Pray for Peter!

Peter, we all knew him since when we were in school. He taught me while I was in my uni days. And now he’s sort of like a supervisor to Christine, Joey and me. But to me Peter is just not a teacher. He is just like my big brother and friend to me.

I must admit that I do upset him sometimes. He seems to be disappointed when we didn’t perform well. We all love him. We all do. And we all treat him with great deal of respect. He ain’t just nobody. He is somebody. We love every minute that we could spend with him during class time.

He is intellectual and he is orginial in his design thinking. And only Ling Hao could match up to him. He is always humble towards everything he do. And he always blush whenever we spoke about his project and pester him to bring us to his work and feel the poetics of it.

He is a poetic fellow, who schooled in Architecture Association, London, under the supervision of Rem Koolhaas. Both he and Ling Hao forms a unbeatable pair. Just like brothers in arms. Always together. Ling Hao been the one who love to write. Wrote a few articles before, correct me if I’m wrong. But I got hook on this article that he wrote.

Well, Peter, we know you are fighting for your life now. Your wife just called me. I was in shock. In fact, Joey and Christine were in shock. Peter, we will pray for your recovery. We know that you will be on the table in 2 days time. We will hold vigil for you and pray hard for you.

Peter, we promise you that we would work hard, we would work towards your teaching and wait for you to return. We promise you that we will let you see what are capable in design.

God Bless Peter!

Oh God! Why am I keep on typing the wrong word! Damn it!

Mrs Tay, we will always stay by you and walk through this bad times with you!

Peter, JIA YOU JIA YOU!!!!
