quick commute

Rode a jeep going home from the mall after buying some grocery items when I met a classmate back in 2003 when I was still starting college. We talked for awhile and asked what happened between then and now. He just got his degree and is now working in a bank for 4 months. That was 6 years ago; a lot has changed.

He transferred to another school and so did my brother and I (we were all classmates in the same year level). Now, he has a diploma and we, we’re still a bunch of undergrads; only we’ve been working for almost 4 years or 5 while he just started in the business.

Funny how life can give you a flash back of days when you were all too skinny and pimply but had all the innocence and dream that a change was going to happen big time. A quick commute was all it took to pinch you to reality that indeed we all have our own paths to take and things may have turned out a lot of ways. We are not the same and yet we are not different.
