then recieved a call from Joseph.
he told me that Thaddeus Cheong passed away this morning.
He was cycling in the morning then his heart just stopped.
Thaddeus Cheong Wing Kit.
I met him since primary 5.
and he also went to Catholic High Secondary.
As we both took the bus 58 back home,sometimes i would happen to meet him on the way.
or sometimes Joseph, him and I would take a cab home.
He is a Tri-athelete
he can Swim,Run,Cycle..anything just name it.
Now that hes gone.
its just weird.
Now im just staring at his hotmail nick.
It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference..
he is just 17!
why?!
why take away a life with such promising future?.
Thaddeus, if you can hear me or listen to my thoughts right now.
i would like to tell you that
you're the coolest guy
and that i've always
always
looked up to you
and i hope.
that it is a better place.
in Heaven.
heres his photos.of his marathons, tri-athalons..etc
