Saturday, November 11, 2006 Looking back on how it wasIn years gone by And the good times that I had Makes today seem rather sad So much has changed Watching Army Daze (Link here) has made me notice how fast time has slipped by. Once upon a time I was watching this movie and laughing at it, my NS days seemed far, far ahead. Today, I realise that it is really soon that I'll be going in too. It really seems like yesterday that we were all donning that white uniform we couldn't wait to get rid of, and yet I believe what we used to hate is what we miss so much now. It was the sticking up to the man (Watch the movie "School of Rock" to get that reference) that was so great. The silly crushes and squabbles, they were just silly. Skipping school used to be such a sacred affair. You couldn't just skip school like that without your parents knowing. Brings me back to the time when half the class wanted to skip school the next day, and it resulted in me being half the number of people who actually did do it. No, Marcus and company, I know you guys are thinking 10 people, but it was 2. Now the thrill's just gone out of everything. Now that we're almost out into society, we're left to fend for ourselves, and no one really cares if we end up screwing ourselves up. Where's the fun in going against authority now? Hiding from Miss Ow in the basketball court; those were the days. Sorry for this rather random post. Try staying awake at this ungodly hour, with "Yesterday Once More" playing on the computer, and not feeling emo. You can't help it. I feel helpless. |
