The School Break

Yeah…yeah… i know the last university break i had ended 2 months ago. But i’m still going to write about it.

This particular holiday was especially… how should i put it in words:… meaningful, to me. (Despite the fact that i was mostly rotting away at home.) By the time lectures began, i was feeling sorrow(”melancholic” sounds more suitable) as if i had just said good bye to a precious friend.

During the break, i’ve been doing a bit of travelling. I went to Taiping to visit my grandma & and grandpa. Everytime i see them, i just couldn’t help feeling calm and also sad sometimes. You know that they would not be around for much longer, but i just can’t seem to visit them often enough. I’m so afraid that one day i would be so caught up with my own life that i wouldn’t remember them anymore.

Back to KL, I’ve been mamaking with a bunch of primary school friends. People change, and people don’t change. Most of them (or “us”, for that matter) looks like what we used to be. And we still talk and behave the way we are. The only difference? We are are no longer cute, but gorgeous and handsome, Haha. As we were chit-chatting i realised that soon, everyone would be graduating soon. In fact, some had already found work. And one had begun working in Singapore. Not that most of us keep in touch all the time, but knowing that once we start working(and ‘pak toh’) no one will really bother with mamaking anymore.

Then… people Change.

I miss the people. I miss the innocence of childhood friends. I just afraid that one day, when all of us change, will we still be friends as we used to?

Yours Sincerely,
the FRiend.
