Ju Hua is one of the 1st people I knew in UCL, even prior to even stepping
foot in London. Well, I met her on the 22nd August 98 (giving the exact date sounds makes me sound really anal)
during one of those sad loserish Summer "get-to-know-one-another" type of chalet session. Oh but no no!
Ju Hua is no loser... well, not all the time lah. You must be wondering how we got such a long ridiculous name
for her. Oh for her credibility sake, I will state for a fact that she did not bestow that nickname upon herself
because if she did she would be 100% LOSER! Well, we gave it to her cos one night while in a pub called The
Professor in Leuven, Belgium, we were all deciding what English names to give those with chinese dialect names
only... well, of cos everyone knows that she is called Lynn, but dang she looks like no Lynn... so I decided to
rename her Chrysanthemum cos she reminded me of one... dun ask me why but then again she also reminded me of a
Cha Siew Pao (in a good way?) and Karen reminds me of a Mama San so my judgment cannot be considered
very sound. Jia Ying is a really great friend who is always very on to do everything (including watching Star
Trek Insurrection even though she absolutely hates it) and partying is not precluded. This ex-RJC girl does
not live up to the stereotype of an RJC student (in Jason's words, it would be Nerdsville). Apologies to all RJC
students who are not geeks. Well, Chia Yin is really in a class of her own.. dunno what class that would be though...
low class??? Ok ok... even insults... she's really great and my life in London would really be miserable without
such a live-wire like her... really love this girl! Stay groovy baby!
