Last day again

Every semester we face a "last day;" today was it for my Year 3 Sem 2 (not exactly if you consider exams). But I've been through worse when I bade my "last day" in Stockholm goodbye three months ago...

I wanted so much to post this #throwback last night marking my three months back in Singapore and reuniting with Ms Blur, but...

Just like many phase in life, there's always a "last day", and we've been coping pretty well, moving on with life when one chapter closed, haven't we? What's passed is nice to reminisce but we probably don't have to harp over how exciting it is because, well, we wanna know what happen next right? Two more semesters, and I'll be closing yet another chapter. Reading Samuel's blog made me think about many things, particularly about how the past four years have changed me as a person and as a conscious being. But yea, I shall leave that to next time. One year from now perhaps. Doesn't matter. 

Looking at the bigger picture, these four years are but a small part of our lives isn't it? Why I'm saying this? 

When someone you grew up with moved on with life BIG TIME. Like, not the next chapter. The next SECTION. It hasn't hit me till now. This is not gonna be a four-year thingy. It's like a forty-year or eighty-year thing. This is a chapter that's not gonna close till the end of the book...

So much that we've experienced the past 20 odd years are but the "introduction" chapters really. It's the most interesting to keep you flipping the pages; but it's probably not gonna amount to much when the climax comes... So yep, let's just flip the next page slowly, patiently, and with a smile.
