Good Old Times

One bad (actually good) thing about boarding school is, you can never move on from the lots you befriended there.

It is far past my glorious high school years. I've met many new people, acquainted some, befriend some, and get close to some. But none of them can really replace my high school buddies. Maybe it is for the teenage hormones or crazy memories, but i think most of the credit goes to the fact that i was exposed 24/7 to these people; we're boarding-schooled, what more can we say? :p

I spent this New Year's Eve on my friends' place, a nice-but-smells-cow house in the midst of Depok. Last NYE i also spent it there, guess it'll be some kind of tradition for us. Before we're graduated from university, before we really go our (each) own way at last, might as well spend times together, while we're still be able to make it.

It's not very rare for me to hang-out in Depok, since it's just 40min away with KRL. I still feel some unexplained attachment to my friends there, a feeling i can't describe. I just love being back with them and chit-chatting about the good old times, about our young, careless years in our very-beloved boarding high-school. Most interesting topic talked is probably about update of our dreams, and, well, crushes.

We're 20 now (most of us. I myself still is a child by the law :p), and only a few of us got a serious boyfriend. Of course, we're told not to have such a "boyfriend" because that's just inappropriate. But crushes, well, you can't ignore that you, at some point, deep inside, have 'em, can you? "cause it's just natural :) and that's what we do. Talks about crushes can never be boring. It popped up anywhere and anytime we're together, even in the mid of our UNO games. And that made me realize, even if we move on from our high-school crushes, they do have special place in our hearts, regarding the way we're still happily talking  and tease each other about them (what i'm talking duh). Like the last night, we talked about our old friend and his new GF (also our old friend) and how we see it. ok now really, what i'm talking?

My point is, crushes is not something you confide to anyone, only to some trustworthy friends, right? (except if you're some sort of drama queen who whine to everyone you meet, of course) That we still constantly tease and update about each other means we're still good pals deep inside. I have to admit, no one, not even my college best-friend, can replace my high-school pals, in that way. I LOVE YOU guys, i do. I hope our sort of friendship will last forever and after :")
