And yes, the past do haunt us and there are times when we cannot avoid it because it will be there in our minds.

Well, I don’t really like it when my past catches up with me because it brings back old memories…

The hottest girl is no more the hottest. She is married with two kids and a 2 year old stretch mark.

The hottest boy now owns a 36 waist and receeding hair line. He works so so as an engineer in good international company.

The classroom monitor is now running a chain of restaurants and the girl with braces at 16 is now the center of attention.

The one with the biggest boobs ended up as a SIA stewardess. She is still known as “Oh that’s Tina with the huge *cough cough*”

The wallflower is now a successful and beautiful corperate high-flyer. She buys a property in Damansara CASH each year as a present to herself.

The ones who were slim and beautiful are more often than not, not so pretty as compared to their ugly duckling sisters, who are now just so damn gorgeous.

The smartest boy ended up as the professor in uni while the naugthiest boy is now owns a factory earning billions for him while he’s playing golf somewhere on earth.

The class nerd has 3 kids, shared between a wife and a 18 yr old mistress. He also drives the swankiest car in the class.

Life handouts the funniest future.

Nevertheless, time never truly heals all wounds. It merely dulls them. Which makes memories all the more… sweeter, for lack of a better word. Better to cherish. Both good and bad.

It rules to be a goldfish!
(Sorry ah, a bit contradictory. Friday mah!)

Things are pretty much the same between us since the first day we have known each other but can’t really say about the other friends that I have lost contact with. I even forgot some of them when I bump into them :oops:. But yeah they do dig out your past when you meet them, because that’s the last thing they know about you and that’s the way they think they can connect to you. It’s just an initial thing though because after they know your present news, they won’t bother with the old.

I’d like to meet my bully during secondary school and get my revenge on him though..:twisted:

Yes, you could say “I’ll do what I feel is right” or “I won’t do something that would please everyone but not me”. Quite true in fact. However, I just feel that when it comes to friendships and making them last, we still have to do our own part.

To be there for the friends that we know are truly sincere and not for the “hi-bye” ones. Unless, of course, you just simply don’t want to put up with the faces or uncomfortable remarks from the latter. Which brings us back to the issue of “Why should I?”.

Take care, mini.

true, we will always remain the same person that we were in the eyes of certain people, simply because the perception they have of us from high school seem ingrained into their mind.

likewise, our perception of other ppl will never change, like the old adage - you can take the person out of the high school, but you can’t take the high school outta him. certain traits will always remain the same, no matter how old one becomes…

the fact that in their eyes, I will always be the old ‘me’, and never who I am now.

maybe it is rather haughty of both of us to behave as if we know better, eh? but then again, why do i so agree with you?
