Changes

[invitan]

Dear flist, do you find me changed at all over the last year?

This winter I reunited with my friends from a lot of places, from my secondary classmates to my high school class mates, to even dearest HnG's fam. Who, surprisingly, all have one thing in common.

All of them remarked that I haven't changed at all. 

So am I really that static? And is it a good or bad thing that I don't change? That I remain the same?

And all the while I thought I have changed a lot.

I don't know. I just feel somewhat... disappointed. I really don't know.

Sigh.

Yeah, I get to hear my friends saying that a lot too :-?. We have so many things in common, do you know that?

Not changing, I think, is a very, very good thing. Changing means you're no longer the same person your friends befriended with. It is not the same as become mature, though. I think you've become more mature.

As for me, I just want myself to not ever change. Maybe grow up in my point of view towards life, become more experienced. But not change :-?.

Of course, that goes without saying, I don't want you to ever change either XD

Isn't maturity some sort of change :-SS ?

On second thought, perhaps I'm just too quiet to be seen through :-? I'm not in the habit of talking about myself (or talking at all T_T) in face-to-face conversation. In that sense, my private self might have changed drastically while my public self remains the same, I guess?

I'm not really sure. But you're somewhat right about the view towards life. My perspective has somehow got a lot less angsty, and yet more complex at the same time. As in my view towards the world becomes a lot more optimistic, and yet a lot deeper simultaneously :-? Feel like I have managed to outgrow teenage crises quite early.

About you... I think you have changed, yet still the same person I know you are... :-? So... yeah. That's pretty much what it is :-? (and now I doubt I even make sense anymore = =)

Er :-?.....Well, to my mind, when someone remarks "you've changed" it kinda feels like I'm completely no longer who I am, so :-?...At least, if you 'matured', the basis of yours is still there, right?

And dang if I don't find your habit completely familiar :-S (Aka I'm just the same). As I said, we're too much alike (I've known this for a long time now, but it just comes back and hit me in the face 8D)

And as I said, I think I've 'matured' :-?. That explains everything, amirite 8D?
