All too surreal

Disclaimer: this might be a post of what most of you would call as....emo post!

nonono, i'm not emo. in fact i'm no longer that kind of people who goes through the emo phase easily. of course during some "special" time, it would be exceptional then =P

anyway, just feel like typing what has been on my mind, that's all.

it makes me wonder, how many of the people that i know here, will actually remember me after i've left for good?

yes, we might have had a really great (or not so great) year hanging out and getting to know each other

we might have had been through a lot together, the ups and the downs

we might have had a lot of shared moments

the laughter, the gossips, the fun, the not-so-fun, the days and nights...etc...

but honestly, will you actually remember me once i'm gone?

not remember as in "oh ya!! that one ar...that one leh..." that kind of remember.

but remember as in you will think of me out of the blue, and wanting to know about my wellbeing and all that stuff, and keeping in touch.

sometimes, i'll imagine that by the time i head back to penang,

whenever i recall the time i spent in adelaide, somehow it will all seem hauntingly surreal. it's like having a really really long dream. though a really real one.

eventhough i know what i've been going through in adelaide is real, but the feeling of being here is not. time flies...it passes too fast until i couldn't really have time to actually feel the realness. i'm not sure whether this make sense to you guys, probably not..but this is what i felt, and have been feeling..

every single day, i meet different lots of people. some are what you call friends, most of them are what you call acquaintances, some are just plain strangers.

and more often than not, these people don't really make an impact in your life, at all.

they come, and they go...eventually

oh well, what to do...

谁曾是你这一首歌，你记不清楚

我看着你离座

真高兴给你爱护过，

根本你不欠我什么

-谢安琪 <年度之歌>

the familiar view of my house,

the familiar barking of our neighbour's annoying and smelly dogs,

the ever so familiar "little arguments" amongst my family members,

the view of my cloth-covered organ and piano...

make things real once again :)
