A new chapter of my life began...when I left a small lil' island called HOME to a much bigger island called TASMANIA... but, life is still going to be as blessed or even MORE BLESSED and CRAZY because God is watching out for me. :-) SO here's a testament to that!...

am i missing too much???...

for those who faithfully visit my blog... and for myself too...

i'm doin fine... still healthy and all... just been really busy for the past few MONTHS, hence the "terabai" punya blog...

just a thought though... does anyone around my age/was my age ever felt that life is moves really fast??..too fast in fact...

i feel that since i entered college, time is just "fast-forwarding" before my eyes(reminds me of my old faulty vcr player..;-) ) ..one year of college is way too fast... can't imagine leaving for uni next year... i feel like i'm missing the essential things in life right now, like spending quality time with ur family and friends.. instead all that i've time to do now is studying and attending to my assignments... cuz my future depends heavily on that... is this a point of no return for me??.. like once i miss this point of life where i'm at right now, will i ever get to re-live some of the best moments and memories??? i guess not....

i'm compelled to grow up at a faster-than-usual pace... some may see it as a good thing as u get more freedom and all, but i see it as a platform of more perpetuating responsibilities... and besides that, things around me are just evolving and becoming more and more complicated these days...

i miss being able to talk and laugh with my close friends and not have to think about whether or not i'm intruding their space...

i miss just being around my closest frens and not worrying about whether i'm being a "lampost" or not cuz my closest frens have became "closer" themselves...

i miss being friendly and not making people think that i'm fake...

i miss people showing sincere concern on me and spurring me one with simple words of encouragement..

i miss being able to come home and ask "mum, what's for lunch or dinner???"...

i miss being driven around by my dad and having those lil father and son talks we had in the car...

i miss going for youth camps and thinking that they were the best 5 days and 4 nights i ever had...

i know i'll never get to re-live those days again... that's why i missed them so... but the fact remains is that life pushes you forward without ur consent... and as inevitable as it is, i still wished that i'd had the opportunity to appreciate those significant lil moments that put a smile on my face.

but no. the cliche is that...LIFE MOVES ON... so must i...nevermind the nostalgia... it's the heavy heart i leave behind...

ya, you know i kinda relate in some of the aspects you mentioned, especially the part of not being able to relive those memories we had with our friends in the past... but i guess like the saying goes, some people come into your life for a season, a reason or a lifetime. it IS sad how some people close to you are slowly drifting away, but that is life, right? but maybe there's a glimpse of hope that they will be back by your side again. =) i think when we feel a certain kind of loneliness or emptiness, we should really look to God. i've been doing that lately, and it helps a lot. new friends will come into your life soon, i'm sure- it's always like that. friends come and go, some stay, some leave but have a certain impact on your life. growing up hurts in many ways- but i'm sure it has its benefits too. cheer up! /pats

anyway, be sure to know that i'll always lend a listening ear if you feel like venting. =)
