Leave

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

To clear some of the balance of my leave, I took 5 days off & went to KL for 1 week in Jan

07.  I could go to other places, but then, I would be travelling alone, & I don’t know much

people in other places.  Although it’s logical that I use my leave for CNY, things are

different now.  I’m back home, after all. 

It was a trip of ‘relessing’, & to a point, that objective was reached.  What did I buy? 

What else?  Gundams & books, of course.  Oh, bought some new clothes too. 

Also, met a few of my old fwens.  It was nice to see them again, but only time is definite. 

Meaning, things change, & people are among those things that change.  Simply put, it was

there in almost all of them.  Maybe it’s I who has changed, or maybe it’s because of the

lack of contact all this while.  Still, can’t deny that it was no longer the same, & that

saddens me.  Why?  There is no ‘why’. 

Well, not that I can’t do anything about it, but like what I told others, there’s only so

much one can do.  & like others, there are more responsibilities to undertake now.  Fwens my

age are getting married, buying properties & being their own bosses.  Not uncommon, but

really now, isn’t that something of an achievement?  There may be a catch to all these

things respectively, but looking at them in a larger picture, they are merely another step

taken in life.  So, how many steps have been taken? 

My short trip got me what I wanted, & at the same time showed me what I no longer need. 

While realizing what I have to do, I also noticed what I must let go. 

Well, just going through the motions of living…
