The end of summer brings about the start of a new academic year, many of my friends haf left for uni. Although there's always the promise of visits and probability of crossing paths again, in reality things are easier said then done. So it would be rather accurate to say that I probably wouldn't be seeing them in a LONG time. It's a relief that I still sumhow manage to keep in contact with friends who haf left earlier.

Sad to say, this is an inevitable part of life. People moving on and going their seperate ways. Friends have always been an important part of my life and dats why I've always found goodbye to be one of the most dreaded words in the dictionary. But with departure comes arrival, so all is not lost.

Graduation is always bitter-sweet. The bitter parting but the sweet anticipation of new possibilities. High School grad was difficult, as I had to part ways with people I had known for years! Thrust into a new environment, away from my 'safe' haven ( not literarily safe because high school had it's share of politics n my high school in particular had LOADS, but safe in the sense dat everyone knew everyone so u dun hafta work extra hard in the socialising circle..)At the same time I was eager to start my 'new' life....but sumtimes when I think abt how we have lost contact, it gets pretty depressing.Dats y I was always get pretty excited to be reunited with my ol peers at any event!
College graduation was just as tough, although I would still be in the same campus I had to part ways with frens I saw more often than my family. Was really difficult getting used to not seeing their faces every single lesson, break and outing...*sob*mb it's the closeness that I had with my college mates dat made the start of uni feel so miserable.
Thankfully it wasn't too long til I warmed up to my uni mates and yeah the 8mths with them has been great!! But then with the end of 1st yr, I will be parting ways with sum of 'em...sighh
Dats not all I've had to say goodbye to. With the end of the final year production, it's the end of my relationship with SPA so to speak...everyone goin their own seperate ways , back to their busy lives...


It's so sad how we hardly see each other again, the time we spent together haf become nothing but fading memories...
BUT. I'm never the person to sit around and watch all my friends leave and forget me, so I always try my best to stay in touch and meet as often as poss. =P
They say you only find your true friends in uni, friends for life, I say the friends ( friends from whichever part of ur life) that still stick by u when ur in uni, those are ur true friends, ur friends for life.


So here's a lil tribute to my friends who haf left or will be leaving the country for uni this summer...
