Life as Usual

They say.
Back to the piling assignments, to the traffic, to the rusty routine. For a moment you expect, without really thinking, that something may have changed. And yet nothing has. Not percievably.

Today.
Came early and at this time of year, at this age, you meet less friends at the campus café. They’re either gone and graduated, are doing internships, or slaving away in the library doing their Thesis. (Oops! I just said the “T” word. *shudder*)

But food is a necessity people cannot avoid, and so are friends…and so if you persevere long enough in the humid café, you would manage to meet a few fellow necessity-seekers. Today was a good day. I met a someone who just came back from a Euro-trip, someone who just came out of an internship at a VFF (Very Famous lawFirm ;p), someone who just got married, and someone planning to get married. As the stories unravel, the mind goes into overdrive. I could almost hear the “creak-creak” sounds of a CPU processing in there somewhere. Jigsaw pieces being put together. Plans. Shapes.
So I found that life is not so usual after all. It seems my todays are filled with thoughts about my Tomorrows.
