Other side of the world

When I come to think of it, that not-so-faraway future, I see my friends leaving one after another... My three best mates are all going away to pursue their dreams. Actually one is in London now having followed my footsteps, I am glad it is all working out for her and helping her to face life's very often harsh reality. In about 2 months, another is also leaving for Abu Dhabi for work purpose. That is a big decision but with her restless nature and being constantly on the move for past few years, it can be just another "long holiday" for her. Our third friend is leaving to pursue her 4 years of undergraduate studies in the USA, not surprised at this one as she has been longing to go further in her studies for some time. Now she is finally able to do so, somehow I share part of her joy. I get such mixed feelings knowing my closest friends are soon going away but I do know its all inevitable part of life. We have our dreams, our goals. Talking about my past 2 years, I could also imagine when one of them was left alone in Singapore while the rest of us are out there - somewhere around the globe. Now, my turn being back in Singapore, I shall have a taste of that... I'm not too worried, I know we'll always be a close-knit group despite that distance and someday we are going to have a fabulous reunion celebration!

I'm going to take my life as it comes, how bad can that be - as long as I'm happy, wherever I am, wherever it is...
