High school reunion

I have a headache a runny nose, and had one of the happiest days of the month today !

I met up with my high school friends (a small reunion), it was great seeing the changes and the latest news that everyone has been up to. Some gained weight some lost weight, but they all looked so great and happy and content. And that made me feel wonderful!

I realized that getting in touch with old friends is one of the most vital things. New friends (the one I made whilst studying here) are great too but are far more different than I am. They are more quiet and calm, I sometimes tend to be more on the wild side, yet spending much time with them I have adopted their characteristics and am more reserved than what I used to be. For example before, if I had to wait at a Doctors office I'd jump into a conversation with a complete stranger that’s sitting next to me just for the sake of wasting time. Now I'd just smile and fiddle with my phone till my turn comes up.

Today whilst I was with my friends from the past (they all study in the states except for me) I realized how wild and much more fun I was back then. And I kind of missed the old me. I was in a time machine that took me back to high school, where all our forgotten memories were brought back with laughter and joy. As we were huddled on the floor next to the fireplace, I was reminded that I had gotten school suspension for plagiarizing the teachers signature on my project, I really had the nerve back then. I'd never do such a thing now, I’d be totally terrified of committing such acts. I'd think it over 1000 times and then decide NOT to do it. My mouth hurt from all the laughing and shouting we did, I was four years younger today. But of course a quick call from my mother fast forwarded me into the present and I realized that I had to be responsible and consider the time and be home before the clock hits 11:00pm. I reached home 11:10, I got a cold stare, but what the hell! I had fun! After today's meet up I know that I had totally changed, and I guess it's for the better. Change is part of growing up I guess, and not being as wild and mischievous would probably be the more lady version of me, with a few twists every now and then. Ahh high school! How I would give anything to be back!


P.s
Tomorrow I guess most of us are going to be Fasting, so taqabal alah 6a3atkum and have fun :P
