i found a cheap way to get from the downtown to airport. just a dollar for the bus as compared to the horrible 30 dollar plus tips taxi ride. it was a good moment of catching up and it felt as though while we all went our separate ways around the world to study, time stood still for us and now time is running again. we have changed, things have changed, definitely, but it felt as though in our friendship, nothing has changed. it feels that way with my friends back at church and I am very thankful for that.
it's strange how there are certain people in your life in which the lack of contact will result in the drifting in relationships. in the end, it comes to nothing and you look back and wonder what had happened. yet there;s another group of friends, that you can't bear to leave, worrying that you guys will drift apart, going separate ways etc etc. but I realised, far away from everyone, that although life continues going on for each and every single one of us, it feels as though our friendship has merely hit the pause button and when we return and reunite with one another, we'll hit the play button and there'll be no need to start all over again.
sleepovers, movie marathons, laughing and musing over the past, roast duck etc etc etc.
it's scary how we now contemplate about the future. realising that it's really not too far away ahead of us. I realised with great shock and horror that after graduating in 3 or 4 years, i'll be married in another few years (hopefully) and next thing i know, i'll be taking care and worrying about my family :S
it's hard to picture all of us all grown up, each with our own families. will we still be the same way as we are now?
interesting food for thought :)
