I miss you (Yap)

Last night I had a dream. I dreamed that I went back to China and got together with my classmates in high school.
I think I should tell them: I miss you.
I really had a good time in the dream. It is already more than half a year since we graduated from high school and I have not met them again since the reunite in July, 2008. In my dream we had another reunite. Although we all had changed a lot, we still felt familiar with each other. And I felt that I was still a high school student and we could still study together.
I did not know our friendship was so tight until we separated. As a matter of fact, the students in Shandong province have more pressure in study than any other students in other provinces because we have so many high school students. In our class, the competition was even severe because all of us were chosen from the honor roll in junior middle school. However, during the three years we built up tough friendship. We helped each other in study and life. I took our friendship for granted and did not feel its importance until we separated. Then I knew we were not only classmates but also good friends. After we were admitted to different universities, I really felt very lonely because all the things around me were unacquainted to me. Fortunately, I have so many kind friends, they encouraged me and helped me to adapt to my university life. Then I knew how valuable our friendship was.
Now I am in Singapore, far away from my friends. We keep contact with each other regularly and I am always asked: When will you come back? I know they also miss me and I always feel gratified when asked this question. Actually I do want to go back and meet them. But the fact is that I cannot because of the school system. Even though, I do not care so much. I know that I must work hard and when I go back I can tell them that I have not let them down. They are the motivation for me.
I miss you, my friends. I miss the days when we strived for our dreams and our bright future. The hard but fruitful three years will stay in our memories forever.
Take good care of yourself. You always tell me this.
Please take good care of yourselves. I want to tell you. Wherever we are, our hearts will always stay together and we can strive for our dreams together.
I really miss you, my friends.
