'Old' friends

Reunited with a few of my really good friends from back in college during this weekend in KL. While many things have changed and many have stayed the same, one thing's for sure, we have grown up or turning into "adults". Here are some recollections, realizations and afterthoughts for this weekend:

- We are scattered around the globe that get togethers are harder to organize and have fewer attendance. Back in the days, we'd be spending summers and Christmases together.

- Those summers or Christmases usually were accompanied by alcohol. Not anymore.

- Finding an activity becomes limited to somewhat boring ones. What used to be anything goes will have to be carefully considered if everyone's up to it and if we are too old for those kind of things. For example, a game of laser tag or ice skating to pass one afternoon of. It has something to be out of the ordinary or unusual ex. Skating in Finland may still be something of interest. (Hi Cy!)

- An evening out usually involves minimal alcohol and at lounges at the most not clubs. It's more for social drinking and having a conversation over alcohol not for getting crazy/partying. It's still an option once in a blue moon maybe but not as much.

- Conversations with old friends are more relaxed and laid back. You can openly discuss your feelings without too much fear of being judged and you can expect them to be honest with you anyways.

- You start to look back on your past adventures and reminisce a lot. 

- You may drift apart in the future but these are the friends you are really fond of and would like to keep. :) 

Cheers! Until next time my dear friends!
