end of year 1

and so year 1 has ended in a flash.


how quickly time has flown by, man seriously.
it still seems so clear... my first steps into sheares hall as a freshman, cleaning out my room, meeting my neighbours and level 4 short wing mates who will eventually turn out to be good pals and buddies, orientation and buaya week, and then the start of school where university life still seemed foreign as hell. remember thinking what on earth was CORS?


still, as fate would have it, we all pressed on and then before we knew it finals were over, sem 1 was over. december holiday passed by next. and then sem 2 flew by, almost like an exact replica of sem 1.


looking back, i guess the main positive thing to take away from this academic year are the friendships and acquaintances made.
the people, the friends, the random tutorial groupmates even.
friendships that were forged, already existing ties which were reeled in and made even tighter. and even though some of those friendships slowly fade away as you cease contact...
i believe it's times like these where you make good friends that will hopefully be there even after we graduate, something we should never take for granted.


and to this noble thing called true friendship, i am sincerely grateful to those i have known for so many years now, those who have known me as well... as a person, as a friend, and as a bro haha.
really warms the heart to think about the awesome times we shared, and then to think that these people are still around and will always be around... just makes me wish that i'm as good a friend to them as they are to me.


yep, and not only friendship man! we should never take anything for granted.
family... health... all the good times...

always remember to appreciate what we've got and enjoy the moment.

so ima try my best to make full use of this holiday and not take it for granted as well.
time to execute those plans before year 2 starts man, godspeed.

yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
yesterday is a promise that you've broken
don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
this is your life
and today is all you've got now
and today is all you'll ever have
don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
this is your life, are you who you wanna' be?
