A moment to remember...

Today, a colleague told me that at the prelims of the Company-wide soccer match last weekend, the team representing our Business Unit observed a minute of silence in memory of bernard before commencing the match.

I'm very touched. Thanks for remembering...

The evening before we left, bernard participated in an internal soccer match. He knew that i was very busy with preparations for audit, and told me it's ok, dun have to go and watch. But i knew my being there means a lot to him, after all, last year when i was in the organizing committee for staff events, he participated in almost all the events to give me his support.

So, i told my supervisor i really had to go off early and rushed over in a cab. (I wld tell her later on, that this is exactly what i mean when i told her ever so often what our priorities should be, cos in the end, one will never regret having spent too little time at work n too much with loved ones.)

He was amazing (to me, at least). He tried to do some scissors kick thing :) and landed hard on the ground.. wah when i saw him fall my heart sank... According to another soccer player, apparently it is very normal and not painful n i shouldn't be too concerned abt it.
Anyway, bernard scored the only goal! *yay* :)
He was very proud. I'm proud of him too..
