Best gathering in a loonnggg while

Had dinner w Julian, my comperes clubmate from long time ago.
We talked about so many things. comperes, the things we went through in the past few years and laughed at so many things.
Aside from hanging with Cal and the rest, its been such a long time since I had so many laughs and tears at one go!
It reminded me of the camaraderie that we had in comperes..

This particular friend of mine sank into his own world whilst in poly and amazingly enough, whilst came to realise that we never hung out with him much, I still had the fondest memories of the friendship with him. And we didn't stop talking till he dropped me off at my place. :) 

The similarity of our experiences in the past 10 odd years, have also been pretty similar. I guess thats how it is with people who went overseas to study. Especially since we both went to different parts of Australia. we both realise just how frail/fragile relationships can be...
Also we both learnt how to cycle and swim at the later parts of our lives. haha And it is true..those who learn it later, value and appreciate have mastered it differently. The determination to learn it, is different.
Just all these little nuggets of similarities that made our conversation a lot more hilarious.
I even filled him in on the recent comperes history and the silly things thats happened.

In the past 10+ years, we have changed. All of us. no longer the happy go lucky, giggly youth that we were. We are more emotionally contained...and cautious at showing out silly sides.

Im just glad that we had such a good string of conversations. Thankfully it didn't turn out awkward...

Some people in our life, somehow leave such a big impression on our lives that we can meet them after such a long while and still talk like nothing has changed and time had not washed off some of that glimmer in the friendship.

Thank God for those... :)

God Bless
