A little conversation in Baa's comment box triggered a memory in the deep rusted recesses of my brain. I suppose it will always be spoken of as the RJ Odac tragedy. It's been more than 5 years now, but I don't think it's become an urban legend yet to batch 21 and beyond. The accident at Ubin still plagues us. When we think it's been forgotten (and rightfully it shouldn't), it comes up in a random conversation which leads to a random google search which leads to this:
Rachel Wu's guestbook.
Which up till February 2004 had been regularly visited by a loyal friend and her boyfriend. Her homepage (which xiaokai showed me a few years ago) no longer exists. Nor any of the links to websites of her friends and homepages dedicated to her. Five years after she has passed on, she has ceased to exist on the world wide web, save for this guestbook.
But she, and Sharon Lee, the other victim of the accident, will never cease to exist in the memories of RJC Odacians.
