3 years since..........

I was just aimlessly browsing and clicking through my facebook profile when I chanced upon the old note which I wrote when I ORD-ed. Thinking back, it has been about 3 years since then and I must say, so many things have changed.

We have all started studying. Some have finished, some are finishing and most have about 1.5 years more to go. It’s quite scary how time flies isn’t it? Gone were the days when you will tell your friends ‘ehh, lets meet 12noon at mrt station”. Now, you will ask like “eh, whose driving today ah?”. LOL. I think this is one of the most prominent changes so far that I’ve noticed. Well, I guess adapting to these changes means we are all growing up. Slowly but surely. ( or at least I want it to be slower).

I often hear people commenting about “not wanting to grow up”, “not wanting to grad” because they don’t want to embrace their next phases of life. I agree totally but I guess it’s something we cannot escape from so we should like totally embrace it right? Throughout my 3 years of education in uni and my few internships that I’ve did, I’ve learnt one thing. Its important to be happy and stay positive even through shitty times. Most people will probably go “ayee, what bullshit, of course must do this la!” But sadly, talk is cheap. If you really feel and act this way, you will probably feel better. So for now, I’ll look to everyday with a positive light!

Some people come, some people go. Well, I’ve heard so many breakups and so many couples getting together. I feel happy and sad at the same time ( obviously you can infer why from the previous line right?). If you meet the wrong person, then good riddance! It will probably do you more good than harping on it and hurting yourself.no? If you’ve found a great partner, thats great! Learn to cherish them. For myself, I’m glad I met you pohyu=).

I do believe that my train of thoughts and my actions have been different today compared with 3 years ago. I remember saying things without thinking much of the consequences(b4 i joined the army), but not so much now. I’ve always wondered if it is just a phase of maturity or that you learn as you grow and be more sensitive to your surroundings. Anyway, I think its a plus to think before you talk. #truestory. You never know how people will interpret you and its better to “sense” the ground before shooting your mouth off.

>. I think most people probably caught this show eh? This movie really kinda reminded me of the younger days in secondary school where we prank a lot and practically do nothing but play every day (cept jerking off in classes). I kinda had a flashback to all the good old days where we just play basketball and soccer everyday and had a blackjack addition (who can forget all the cornettos and chilli crab nissin noodles). Those I must say were the happiest times in our lives when we have nothing to worry about and you just have to look forward to where you are going to play next and what you’re eating. Fun times. Really.

Well, I’m not too sure what spurred me on to write this note on facebook but I guess it’s just some emotional outlet I guess? Probably feeling more so after catching up with practically every other group of friends this Christmas and festive season. From pri6 class, to sec sch clique, to jc mates army bros and uni peeps. Practically everyone who played an important part in my life =).

That’s it! One more sem to go, before embarking on a new journey. Till then.
