realization
Wednesday, March 19, 2014

gone were the days where everyone are not tied down with responsibilities and commitments. where holidays meant nothing but fun and impromptu meetups. yes i love those days.

but its kinda sad how i have the time, yet no freedom then. but now that i have the time and freedom, my friends don't have. kinda slow to only realise that. we're all already in our early twenties (apart from my girls in school, im talking bout my sec sch and ite friends). most of them are already in the workforce holding a 9-6pm office job. and here i am, full time studies in poly.

perks of being a full-time student is of course the long holidays, the after-school activities with the clique, student meals, student everything, and lower expenses! now that i am having holidays, planning a meetup with the secondary school clique seems a little harder than before. mainly cos 3 out of 5 of us are already working, having their other halves, their families, and other commitments.

as much as i love meeting up with them, we can't always afford to due to responsibilities. there is so much to consider. about the day of the week we're meeting, how late they can hang out, no impromptu plans cos they have work the next day, and whatsnot. am not complaining. it's just that i suddenly came to a realization that all of us has grown. from teens to young adults. i understand everyone will have to experience this as time goes by. but how many of them actually realised?

seeing friends around me in the workforce, some studying part-time, some who are struggling to save for their future home, and everything makes me scared. idk what's in store for my future. but i definitely know that i will have to treasure my current as this is my last sem studying as a full-timer. still unsure of the path that i will be taking but i rly hope that it will be the correct one.
