How did this zero-gravity started out, nobody ever knows, all seemed happened so fast, and before we ever knew, all 8 of us are one happy family...
I guess our story started out in 1995, where all of us were in the same class, in JitSin HighSchool. ALthough all of us were in the same class, all of us barely chat with each other, yet destiny caught us by surprise.....I guess the major "ice-breaking" event was all of us joined a singing competition, where we did won the first prize for "I will follow Him". That competition gave us a chance to know each other more than never, and by no time, all of us seemed to be the bested frenz of all!!! We started to form a family, where the most wise of us , ChoonKhim would be the Grandpa, followed by his "children", HuaZit & WoanShien. Just to fit everyone else in to this family, we soon decided that both YingZee & WeiYing would be the children of WoanShien ( Choon Yee was our "lou tau" then ! ) while HooiShyuan & CheaTian belongs to HuaZit.
This sorta family stuff started to be part of our lifes...... In school, we never called each other names, just plain old " Grandpa" , "LouMou", or "Lou Dao" !! This unique bond tied us up, grewing closer and closer to each other, day after day. We took time off from our hetic schedules, went shopping around the Penang Island, celebrating birthdays in the Youth Park , and occationally , spent some nights in the appartment-stay. All those fun time we ever had, is indeed a treasure to everyone of us, nobody is able to steal all those memories we ever had....
As the time flies, its quite amazing to see that our family started growing .... some frenz joined in our family, and along the path, some chose to leave. No matter what happened, this ZeroGravity still has eight of its core Graviti'ans. TeikSiang, ChenChow, KhangYee and KoonWah were the later addition of ZeroGravity. All of them are still connected to us,by a simple yet strong bond, even till today.
As I tried to finish this website, dedicated epecially to my dearest ZeroGravity, I could never find suitable words to express what's in me for the Graviti'ans... maybe all the best I could do is just end this part with a simple poem I found on the net ( by Timothy E. Stevenson April 30, 2000© universalpoet.com)
With you... my friend
I have felt pleasure and enjoyment,
anger and heartache, laughter and tears.
Together, we've experienced...
the right and wrong, the good and bad,
the beautiful and the not so beautiful.
And many times...
when I've gone down that wrong road,
you've been the one, who spoke up,
and stood by me while I worked it through.
Time and time again...
Through the bad times as well as the good,
you've been the one - who's been there for me.
A true friend and more, is what...
I've come to know with - with you.
Because of you... my life has been a better one.
I know too...
because of you, our world is a better one.
And I just want to take this moment...
To thank you for being in mine.
