Had lunch with a friend from work last afternoon. The one who said that he’s happy as long as I like the gift. The one who sometimes chat with me online during office hours. The one who sent chocolates to me when I stayed back to study, not once, but twice.
And, the same someone who said that he’s happy as long as I’m happy.
Simple gestures and words like these stay on with me for a long long while. And they cheer me up and cheer me on. :)
It’s great having friends, who cares.
I like the clear blue sky tonight, along with the twinkling stars. Not much, but just enough to cheer me up a little. :)
The first time I saw the sky flooded with blinking stars was some seven years ago, at a campsite. I remembered that it was Kim’s and Doreen’s idea to lay the sleeping bags outside of our canvas tent; just to gaze at the stars.
I never felt that it was a great idea, but now I do.
Honestly, I miss the good old camping days. The making of identifiers, tent pitching, gadgets making, outdoor cooking, six sinful meals a day, singing of songs, and even the group cheers which I used to dislike a lot.
That camp, seven years ago, was the best camp I ever had; I learnt a lot. I hope my teammates are doing fine now.
Hmm, I think I’m starting to like staying back late in the office, just so that I could catch a glimpse of the beautiful night view. :)
