A lil' reminiscence.


Came back from a dinner with Meiling, one of my best girlfriends from secondary school days whom I have not seen in 2 years. Nothing extravagant and nowhere near town area. It's just Mos Burger at AMK Hub. But we had a great time just catching up, filling each other in on each others lives. The feeling is just so surreal; we changed a great deal, but deep down, I feel nothing's changed at all. Its still that warm feeling of the good ol days of deep and true friendship.


While walking back home, I can't help but think back to those days when we had our lit classes together (yakking most of the time), running to the tuckshop (yah, very old school) to be the first in line at the economical rice stall, choosing a good seat (usually right across our crushes, haha...) and getting all gigglish over everything small and insignificant.

Oh how we changed. Our conversations, our dressing and our experiences. We became very different over a span of 8 years. I have not a slight inkling back then of how I, the tomboy would become someone so girlish, and how Meiling who was the girlish one, would become less girly-girl. It seems like we have switched roles.


It really scares me sometimes, to think how time and life circumstances can have such deep lasting impacts in each of our lives. Will we still find time to meet every once in a while when all of us are on our separate paths to our aspirations and dreams? Are we still on the same path or are we going different ways?

And, I'm thankful for this small get-together because, I realise even though we might be on different paths, going different ways and meeting different people along the way. At the end of the day, we are ultimately on the same path of friendship. In my opinion, friendship is like this highway, each of my friends are different roads all leading to that common highway. Haha, seriously, I do feel this way. No matter how busy or how different we turned out to be, we still make time out for each other to rekindle that warmth in our true friendships. We need to make that effort, take time out to ring each other up for a catch-up session.

To all my girlfriends and friends who are reading this, I love all of you! (eee, I know, its kinda mushy.. ) Ha, I do mean it. I'm so glad we are all part of each others' lives. =)
