A Red Sky. Old and New.

I remember back then the sky in the morning would always become red at around 0730H. The cold air and a little breeze to your face, was the kind of thing I would always remember before going to school.

Anyways. That wasn't what I wanted to talk about of.

The hot topic currently being talked about is "where will you study" but perhaps, let's have a break first and reflect our past for a little bit. How far have we gone through changes in our life? Perhaps from this you may even laugh a little better than yesterday. ;)

Let's forget about our iPhones, Galaxy, Android and stuff. What you only have is that thick-squared Nokia phone which had three main functions: telephone, sms and snake game. HAHA! That's right. ;DD

I wonder if 20 years to come or so, we would see friends our age on papers and say "that guy was my friend sitting next to me in class". Should I say, smile only?

It has been few months, or finally should I say a year past that I graduated from high school. I was arranging some stuff on desks and drawers. I saw some past pictures of me back then. Of course, I was surprised. Happy should you say. But I would confidently say, that was my glorious days. I'd be glad to return back and do what I used to do. I just simply love it.

But I would admit I'm still young. There's a long way to go.

Youth life. There are lots of things to learn, isn't it?
Studying, friendship and everything. There was lots of things to remember.

Each of us had different ways we go through, different ways we got into. So our memories differ. But for some people that knew each other, probably their memories were connected to each other. Like friends. Meaning, they have the same memories like you.

As time ages, we worry of where we would end up to. What would we become of. Do our friends fade from our memory or so.

Even so, I don't really think there is a reason to worry much.

The world evolves. Everything around us evolves. It's normal. Goodbye is a word that you need to get used to. That's why see big buildings today, that's why we can use iPhones, Galaxy and stuff. Because who made it has dreams. They chose to move on. Otherwise we'd still be using those thick nokia phones. Kalau baling kat anjing yang kejar kau pun mati. They probably don't think the same, but we can it's a metaphor. A change.
You don't stick to one place at a time. And the "law of time" doesn't stays stationary. It moves each seconds.

But should there be a reason to forget? That is up to everyone's opinion. They may like what they've been through. So they remember. Others don't and would better off forget them.
But I don't think so. Friends are what supports you up until now, right? Family, teachers, friends. I guess you can name everyone of them, have probably contributed their best towards you, correct?

New things may not be easy. But it shouldn't be rejected. Mankind needs faith in order to face new challenges. Past times shouldn't be forgotten. Because you gotta admit you made mistakes in the past. You learn. Otherwise, you'd have forgotten you learn something back then.

It's bitter, isn't it? The moment you study. The moment you try to learn new things. The moments you realize you made mistakes. The moments you thought you were matured enough to face things. In the end, you started seeing in the mirror how unmanly you are. That moment is when you know you gotta stop for a while, think and stand back up.

I do have bitter memories. I admit that I made mistakes back then.
I do have dreams. I kinda have doubts. But I always firmly believe in them.

Sometimes we felt like trembling, falling apart. Even so, we just have to laugh.

Can't really give no damn about it, right?

Who knew.
