Addicted to our Pasts
I was catching the Leverage series online and one of the episodes, Sophie Devereaux said this, "we're all addicted Nate, we're all addicted to our pasts."
It struck me, but not to the extent that i have to pause the video to take in the moment. HAHAHA
in any case, after reading kris's blog, i realise i'm the only one feeling nostalgic and this strong yearning to go back in time. I think we take some things for granted. In school, we can't wait to get out of it. After school, we can't wait to live it all over again.
Now 2 years after we've graduated, i still look back at the pictures we have in YJ and smile at the memories. However, that particular episode jarred my experiences now. Have I become too addicted to my past?
I think acknowledging where you came from and to relish in memories is a good thing, as long as it doesn't hinder your future. In NUS is the time i miss 222 the most. i still do...HAHAHA, XY and nat always talk to me about how things will be 10 years from now. (Nat has no hopes for JH btw, big surprise..hurrhurr)
the part i like abt 222? I think it's our ability to live and let live. To keep things casual yet when things have to serious, we don't shun away from it as well. I think that's what's keeping us together.
I don't think many people know. My memory is a sieve, I cannot remember past events as well as other people. Some of the things that kris mentioned in her blog, old and new, help stir these memories. Sometimes i wish i have taken pictures of every moment we spent, but alas no. In any case, keep those memories alive ok! So that i won't forget them...it's starting to fade and i don't like it =(
Hahaha.....as usual, my aim has always been looking forward. Let's start to make great memories together AFTER graduation so that we have more to smile upon.
