first link of a chain

I have this picture from the past!

Look at the two hijab teenage girls sitting at the edge. Hehe. That's me and my munching partner. So long time no see.. I think I miss her! :)

"That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But, it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it and think how different its course would have been. Pause, you who read this, and think for a long moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on that memorable day."

Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

PS: It's no ordinary picture anyway, for the event has led me to a road in which I am standing now ever since. Just think of how my path of life would be if I were not included as one of the participants in this event, it must be quite different. But that's the art of life, let's say. :)
