They say don't spend too much time thinking about the past.

I have been in a world of my own for the past week or so. Especially last night. I finally found the earpiece to my phone and I blocked out the world on my way to class with the sounds of Corrine Bailey Rae, Silverstein, Iced Earth, a few RnB tunes, Damien Rice, and Ephyra (ian's band). Its an awful compilation, where in one song, I'm drifting on the clouds, and the next, I'm subject to the screaming of screamo-tastic bands.

I say, don't spend too much time worrying about the future.

Music, or rather, screaming to my ears took me to familiar places. Familiar laughter, childish arguments, and what not. I thought, how foolish of me to be worrying about the future, when I have the past to smile at, the lessons learnt, the little things that made me human. The weather added to that floating mood of mine.

I guess the testimonials I received and the people I bumped into started this whole "back to erdi's world" thingy. 2007 seems to be just fine for me, with shattered pieces being glued back together. All thanks to past memories.

Reliana and I met on the first day of primary school. Now she's all married with a darling of a baby girl. When I first got back into contact with her, I kept on thinking, "How fast we all grew! yikes, in a few years, I'll be carrying a kid of my own, and meeting her for coffee where our kids will play. How about my career? I don't want to be a stay home mom. blah blah yada yada".

Now I think, "I remember the fight I had with reliana in malacca after our psle. The funny things that pissed us off. Her crush on Faris.. how faris, her and i made up our 'gang' on the very first time we all met."

These things keep me sane, and too caught up to bother about the claws of present enemies. Why run from being clawed? When all else fails, put them in a little bubble, and burst it!
