Wow.
I'm not even joking when I say this.
It's really hard to believe that the last time I was active on this blog was when I finished High School. That was April, 2014. That's basically a year ago.
A lot has changed in the past year. A WHOLE lot.
For one thing, I can feel my writing style change. Shorter sentences and more 1 word paragraphs. I learned that from Medium, a new blogging platform that I tried and liked for that matter. It had a personal feel to it, like every post was suppose to be meaningful and I kind of wanted my posts to feel that way. I guess now I realised that it doesn't matter what blogging platform you use. You just have to enjoy writing stuff.

I'm in university now. SIM in Singapore if any of you know it. And I'd just completed one of the biggest events that the Indonesian Community Club (InSIM) had to offer. It was a musical. Just like the good ol' days in Gandhi I guess. Only this time, it was actually fun and it meant something to be a part of this musical. It wasn't just another excuse to miss class. It was a situation where you wanted to give everyone a good show, something that you had to be quiet heavily invested in. Especially if you're part of the cast. I was part of the marketing department and that there was something extremely special that I'll never forget. But more on that later.
I've learned alot about myself and have felt myself changed in more ways than one. Yeah, going to Uni does that to people. I've met different type of people, different backgrounds with different lifestyles. Some of them I may not like that much but there are others that suit me just fine. Needless to say, Amongst all of the friends and acquaintences that I've made in my short time here... I still don't have that "group" friends yet. And that's alright. A couple of months ago, the thought of not having that "group" of friends would've ticked me off.
"It's been x number of months and I still don't have that "gang" of friends that I wanted!"
or
"Gah! what's wrong with me! it wasn't suppose to be this hard!"
These were the thouhts that buried in my mind the past couple of months. But now, I'm starting to realise that it's a marathon, not a sprint. Now I look at the friends I have now and I'm happy and grateful that I still have friends to hang out with. I've met some people who've had it worse than me and I'm glad I'm not on the same boat as them.
Anyways, right now, life's good. I do miss being in the marketing team and all the fun stuff we did though. I guess time flies when you're having fun. I'm in my 2nd semester now and am still figuring things out about myself and I'm sure there's still many more things I'll discover in the next couple of years.
