treasures

here am i, saddled with the burdens of uncompleted projects . and i am blogging.

well, i was digging up for old stuff to donate to the kids tomorrow and i came by stashes of letters, autograph books, valentine day knickknacks. left from those years at school.

and it was quite painful to read through everything. in a bittersweet kind of way. because i guess we wouldnt really receive such cute little notes anymore. and the fact that everybody's growing up is quite painful. and as we grow up, we become too absorbed in our lives to keep in contact with the people we once shrieked, howl, laugh and bawl with.

i have sweet little entries of primary school friends in my little mermaid autograph people that i dont recall knowing. and i have pretty birthday&valentine's day notes from jc. and embarassing neoprints from those secondary school days.

will we all just grow up, and forget?

and i guess things will always be different now. looking through all my dusty old stuff reminded me of how much i miss things as it was back then. how we all could be completely crazy and carefree. how we would never be able to do the things we used to do.

meanwhile, i shall hold these memories close. and be half grateful that i have such memories to hold on to, yet half sad that such moments wont repeat again.

not likely, at least.
