This afternoon I visited my college friends. I went to their apartment after Sunday service. That apartment was our home base back in our college days. It was where we would meet up almost every weekend and just stay there or go for a night out. Now most of them had already moved out, two more will be moving out this coming April, only one of the original people who stayed there will be left behind, and new people will be replacing the ones who left. Also one is getting married this coming December. Life has indeed changed for all of us. I cannot help but miss our college days, when everything was less complicated, and we have each other's company almost all of the time.

Back at home later, and still having that feeling of nostalgia in me, the big crystal glass that doesn't elicit any emotion from me (it's supposed to be just a water glass after all), made me remember the original reason why those glasses were brought. One summer a few years back our family had a knack for halo-halo, a Filipino mix of sweetened fruits with milk and ice, and we use those big glasses. I then remembered, and went back to that time, and enjoyed the feeling for a moment or so.

Of course I didn't wallow in the feeling, because I have to live in the present, and for the future. But it sure is nice to go back every now and then and feel the good times once again.
