life in the fast lane

(this is not a post about graduation - read closely!)

time goes by so fast.

like my nigga said, it was just like yesterday when i came back for [what is hopefully] my final round. it seems like yesterday when we graduated from grade school and entered what is now the fully-explored world of high school.

the final frontier is almost upon us.

i honestly cannot believe that we're grown up already. my two sisters are not what they used to be when i first came across them. most of my batchmates underwent radical transformations over the four-year time period. it seems like yesterday when both froques and rod were still fat. it seems like yesterday since our band tagaytay excursion. it seems like yesterday when i was still standing at around 5'3". people have changed so much since the old memories i have of them.

nostalgia is a good thing, and maybe i'm tired of the present already. maybe that's why i draw upon and cherish the past more. they were the good times, weren't they? you could do anything without people giving a damn about you.

i still can't fathom it. people have changed so much, both inside and outside. and guess what - they're still changing, and like i told johann (albeit in a different context), "i'm not used to it."

maybe i just miss our old selves.
