Climb Further Up The Ivory Tower

I attended a wedding dinner last weekend in KL. My secondary school classmate was getting married.

I had not seen her for the past 11 years when she left for Australia to study, and got her PhD 2 years ago, but she still looked the same; pretty, dainty and a bloody BRAINIAC.

The most poignant moment during the groom's speech was when he said, "... J***, you can't climbed further up the ivory tower..."

And I added silently to myself, ".. where else to go?"

Where else can I go? Cos I am only one step behind her...
