The timing’s just plain off.

Its been a while since I’ve updated, but I’ll give you readers some food for thought.

I miss the times when we all had school holidays together with the rest of our friends, thus giving us more time to hang out with each other. I used to think as school as sort of a restraint, keeping us from spending time with our friends and loved ones, just plainly because its been hardwired in our system since we were young to do our “best” for exams. I entered college with a mindset that there would be more freedom to some extent, more time to spend with my friends and loved ones. I entered college thinking that I’d be able to talk to and hang out with some friends more and more.

How wrong was I.

I’m finding now, with most of my friends, that things aren’t going the way as I had made it up to be in my head. I find that most of our timings are just plain conflicting with each other. When I have exams, classes and assessments, they’re free to some extent.

When I’m mostly free or have time to hang out, most of them are neck deep in assignments, quizzes, classes, etc etc etc etc etc, and the list goes on and on. That, and the fact that some of them have gone abroad for studies.

Maybe that’s what its supposed to be like.

Maybe that’s the world’s way of segregating us, by making us just too plain busy to be able to spend time with each other despite our differences.

Maybe some things are meant to change, for better or for worse.

Maybe some of things happening now are just a test to friendships and bonds. To see if some friends are truly worth weathering the storm for.

I’ll tell you one thing for sure. With all that’s happening now, with time slipping through my fingers like sand, with all the friends I feel I’m losing.

If this is what growing up really is,

I don’t like it one bit.

Don’t mind me, just felt like posting this up.

To any of my friends out there whom I’ve neglected in any way, I apologise. I miss hanging out with most of you guys!

We have to appreciate whatever time we have to spend with our friends.

I posted up this post just because I suddenly felt like doing it. =D
