LOST

Time. It does not stop.
How many times in our lives have we come across this saying?
Think about it.
In my 20 years, I'd say, I've come across it more times than I care to remember.
But it wasn't until now, that I realised what it meant.
When we leave school, we're all happy, beaming with confidence and the dream.
The dream to take over the world.
Everything comes easy in the beginning.
New college, new friends.
New seasons, new anime, new music.
New activities, new experiences.
New ways to procrastinate.
New ways to waste time on a daily basis.
I hate to generalise this, but what most of us fail to realise is, time does not wait for us.
It does not care for the time you spent watching movies with the girl or guy you like.
The sitcoms you watched with your friends and the tears you shed while watching an animated pixar or disney movie alone.
Time moves on.

I did all of that and I don't regret any of it.
The only thing that bugs me is that now, when I'm faced with choices and decisions that'll face the unknown future, I'm afraid.
Afraid I'll make the wrong choice. I see some choices which I want to take, but can't because I was too busy completing "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" instead of learning something new.
When I faced the real world. I changed.
I am no longer the person I remember.
I lost myself.
