do you remember me?

Have you ever lost contact with someone, and suddenly after years and years, you found him again?

Feels weird. Everyone looked so different. Heh but i still could remember them.. most of them at least. Doubt they'll recognise me anyway. I think i changed the most.

Yes i should be studying for EOS which is 3 weeks away. But damn i've been browsing this site for hours. Found a few of my secondary classmate. Heck i even found one of my primary classmates. That's like someone i knew since, what, 15 years ago?

I'm amazed. At the same time, it struck me hard. It had been that long.

It has already been 2.5 years in IMU. We're soon going to part ways. I really don't want the same thing to happen. The same feeling that i just had. The same thought.

That i hardly know any of them anymore.

That when i messaged them on Friendster, i wonder if they would think, 'do i know this guy?'.

I know, i know. We make friends, we lose friends. Friends become strangers. Memories fade. Names slip your mind. You get dementia from Alzheimer's. It's inevitable. We do lead very separate lives after all. The only thing we had in common was our paths crossed in the past. And highly unlikely they'll ever cross again.

Still.. i guess it will be nice to know that your ex-classmates still remember who you are. Even if it's just your name. And they spelled it wrongly. Haha.

Which was why i messaged them anyway, knowing half of them only know my surname, the other half probably not even remember who i am.

.. and it's nice to see that life has treated all of them pretty well :)
