knowing me, knowing you

i think i overslept. as in slept too much. i actually have the same feeling as overeating. thus i didn't feel like sleeping so soon this morning. i decided to pass time by blog surfing, but i wasn't much in a reading mood. so i started randomly selecting people to talk to on MSN. those whom i've not spoken to in donkey years. people whom i've not seen in such a long time i'd have to pause for a second to remember how they looked like, or which class they were from back in school.

it's pretty cool. first i started talking to my high school prom king, Sunil. he was amongst the jocks in school, the hot basketballer whom we ogled over once in a while whenever he does his thang at the bball court. he is currently doing a flying course under AirAsia. he's flown to melaka i think, or somewhere domestic. he'd be finishing in a year's time he says...cool!

then i messaged Rhenita, a former classmate in form 5. we weren't particularly close, but we did exchange his and byes back in class and eventually along the roads of ss15. i sometimes spot her at a nearby mamak where she meets with church mates i think. i kind of forgotten she has gone over to Inti Nilai, if not i would've asked her to come watch the biathlon. she's doing engineering if i'm not mistaken.

oh, and i started talking to Khai Boon, who was the queitest guy in my class. he sat next to Rudy, and i swear, i've never heard him speak in my 2 years of being classmates with him. but he somehow managed to get my msn contact, and was talking to me under a pseudonym for a while. i had all the while thought of him as a friend's friend, never thinking that he was 2 seats away from me in class. then he told me who he was after spm. ha! anyway, he's doing pretty alright now. a pro yo-yo player apparently. funny too, im still talking to him now. pretty cool how people turn out to be. :)

i wanted to talk to Kevin from my SAM class, but he had a test tomorrow. so that would have to wait.

yeap...it was nice talking to these people again. just to know what they're doing. there was an episode of One Tree Hill, where the teacher in the class pairs up his students of different cliques, like jock and geek, prom queen and loner, etc. and let them off for 50 minutes. they had a list of things to find out about each other. it was cool. i wish a lecturer would do that in college.

anyway, i may have filled up many invisible gaps between myself and a lot of random people today. or perhaps i've created a bond which was never there in the first place. but one void remains gaping, one which i feel kinda sad to see getting wider and wider. i know i should do something to stop severing the ties, but i dont know how. i dont know if i can go back to how it used to be.

remember when we'd write letters
and passed them around in school
letters which turned into books
of which we wrote pages full

remember when we'd go for recess
and we'd sit in that huge gang
eventhough we never really belonged
with the "popular bunch" we'd hang

remember when we sat by the window
and watched the guys play basketball
giving commentary as they play
remember how we crushed on them all

remember how we'd sleep over
and we'd stay up all night talking
over guys and gossips and friends
until one of us just started sleeping

remember how we'd say we'd go
for an 8 scoop chocolate Swensons earthquake
just for the both of us
because no one would share that for our sake

remember how we use to perform
for clubs we joined back in school
dancing silly for the world to see
how we can be such moronic fools

remember the heartache we went through
cause by arguments or guys and stuff
how we always end up making up in the end
and dust it away with a laugh

remember the times when people assumed
that we'd always be with each other
remember the times that we had
moments that we shared together

i miss those times.
