Staying online for hours doing nothing

-9:51 AM
Went to Sunway Pyramid with my parents today for dinner. I went shopping myself since we have interest clashes - Mom/Dad = god knows what they shop for, Joe = typical guy stuff ( no, not I Love House )
Anyways, since I had time to burn, I went to a tie shop to get me a tie since I realised, I DON'T OWN A TIE. & since I gotta keep lending from friends whenever I've got a presentation, I might as well get one for myself.
While choosing a tie, no one came and layan me. So I took my time and voila! - I start daydreaming and stoning. I thought to myself.. time really is flying by. Look at all of us now, being who we are.
There was once when we would wake up in the middle of the night, after a nightmare, and cry.
There was once when we could just cuddle in between our parents whenever we felt scared.
There was once when we would hide from our parents whenever we did something wrong, & pray they won't scold/hit us with hangars & the fucking rotan.
There was once when we would eat porridge & biscuits for lunch in kindergarten.
There was once when our parents would tell us that babies came from birds & trees.
There was once when we say 'Shit' and 'Damn' and our parents eye's would bulge and they would start scolding us.
There was once when we would talk on the phone for hours talking about nothing with our best friend.
There was once when we would stay back after school for football, or just hang out at Kanna's.
There was once when Power Rangers was better than football.
There was once when we would play football after the rain, and jump in the mud.
There was once when we would have sleepovers, and we'd stay up the whole night talking about our crushes ( yes, guys do that )
There was once when we'd skip classes whenever we'd forgotten to do our homework ( we still do that tho )
There was once when, every recess, we'd share a drink and a bowl of mee soup.
There was once when having long & colored hair was deemed illegal by teachers.
There was once when talking to a person from the opposite sex was no big deal.
There was once when we didn't give a shit about whose penis was longer.
There was once when we didn't care whether the prettiest girl talked to us or not.
There was once when I got 95 for my math and I didn't think it was a big deal.
There was once when teachers would pull our ear and pinch our arms whenever we did something wrong.
There was once when we'd cycle around the park without a care in the world.
There was once a time when there were no need for presentations & assignments.
There was once a time when no one cared what bag you used, or what brand you wore.
There was once a time when all we wanted to do was have fun.
Now, 10 years on, where are we? What have we achieved after all these years? How many of us actually keep in touch with their childhood friends? Always, people say 'keep in touch!' but then, do we?
I can proudly say that, after 17 years, I have at least several friends whom I'd treasure all my life. You guys might not be reading this blog, but yeah, you guys are the best.
If only I could turn back time, I would. What woudn't I do to be running around the carpark for hours with my best friend, or saving our money for 2 weeks just to blow 'em away on Pokemon cards, or spend hours watching Ultraman together.
Everyone says we'll meet new people everyday, but its the old ones who really matter. Treasure your mates
