There was a class gathering today, just several of us sitting round tables, eating, catching up, reminicsing of the old times, discussing about the possible futures. We were young, and perhapps still are. We are still in the education system after all, though it will not be long before this change.

I could imagine what it would be like in another 5 years’. Perhaps the places we go to will be more posh. There will be much less restrain by concerns about catching the last bus or train. Perhaps there will be more boyfriends and girlfriends, and probably spouses joining us in time to come.

It’s almost classic, almost television-like. In a way, we are walking the ways of those who have already gone before us. I guess there are some things in life that will not change, growing up being first and foremost.

I find it extraordinary how in spite of the technological advances, the changing landscape and lifestyles of people, the science of Man will ever be constant. In the end, we are all driven by the same needs and motivation. We all think in ways that can be categorised into several schools of thoughts, and this classification is more or less subjected to genes and more significantly, the environments in which we grow up. It’s ironic how differences are violently fought over when we all share so much.
Maybe a part of me still wishes for the peace that i know will never come.
