Words said are music to ears..

After almost a month, I finally reunited with my own bed. But it feels like I haven’t left home and stayed at my dorm for weeks. Same place, same people (or in my case, same no people). I don’t know why I can’t sleep. I tried tho. So I just closed my eyes. And when I opened them, this is what I saw. Then suddenly, I felt nostalgic…

When I was in Highschool, my classes starts at 7:30 and 7:00 is the start of our Flag Ceremony. Sad to say, my laziness and “lateness” is already evident even before College. So I usually got up at 6:30-6:45 am. And when I saw this view, it reminded me of my Highschool life. Then I started to smell that “school breeze”… The trees, the cold weather, the feeling of my old uniform on my skin, the moist on the ground as I walk the covered walk. The smiles of the guard at the gate as I automatically write my name on the log book because I was late. That feeling of being at ease that makes me manage to stroll before heading to the classroom even though I’m late. The greetings of my classmates, not blockmates. I remember how I loved walking up the stairs because when I was still at the Elementary building, I’ve always looked up to that Highschool building with the thought that when I finally get the chance to be there, that’s also the time I can prove my worth as a student. Too bad that didn’t happen tho. And then I remembered what it was like before- Easy. Again, too bad I didn’t realized it then. I took advantage of it. Looking back, I realized that there’s so much I could have done. So much I could have said. So much. But I didn’t. Out of fear, out of shyness. Now, that’s one mistake I will never do again. One more year in College. And hopefully, when this feeling strikes me again after College, I will be able to say, ”Man, I did exactly what I wanted.”
