Friends
Friends meant the world to me.
At the very core, i am much who i am because of them. All the memories, the private jokes, the laughter and tears, and of course all the secrets... made who i am.
Was communicating with yen over long distance sms about why the sudden zest to go for adventure trips, with closer friends. And because of the limitations on how much you can express in a message, not to mention it's 50 cents per sms, i felt crippled when somehow what i really meant, was misinterpreted.
Since last year to earlier this year, i kept telling people, i'm too tired living out of the box. Spending time at home, nuahing seems like a luxury to me. And i could spend 2 weeks doing basically nothing during my leave.
Given the new stage, the free spirited moi starts to stir... Craving for a new kind of adventure. My own getaways, without the nagging thought that i gotta work.
Was glad to receive a couple of invites, but yet, i am also very picky. =9
Destination is of course the top priority, after which, will be the travel companions. Having been through many different sorts of travel companions myself, i know what i am looking for and hopefully, be an easy going one myself.
For the last 1 year, i find myself been blessed with pretty good company out-station, majority of the times. There are times when i forged weird forms of friendships/companionship: those whom we share the common enemy at work; those whom we have common things to buy; those whom we are stranded with for the next few days; those whom we just click and could share a little bit more about our personal lives, which we seldom do.
But sadly, no matter how much chemistry we had then, after the flight we remain acquaintances and hardly, or even never hear from each other again, partly given our roster. It's a pity, but that's life, that's the culture.
Over and over again. Like i was telling yen, i do get jaded.
Life is like a train journey, people get on and off all the time. But i would really like to know, if there are those who'll stay through all landscape and weather with me.
So it's time, i invest in my old friendships, something that i will always hold dear.
