growing up
last Friday was the final day of school for many of my SMU seniors, and my Facebook newsfeed was flooded with statuses that encapsulated many feelings; feelings of joy, gratitude, nostalgia and people exclaiming their relief at being rid of presentations that are just getting increasingly flamboyant (re: http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sgseen/this_urban_jungle/1683674/are_students_stunts_for_presentations_getting_out_of_hand.html). others very frankly spoke of how scary it was to go into the world, leaving the calm waters of a lagoon and swimming out into the big wide ocean.
i wonder what it'll feel like when i put on that graduation gown and take my final presentation in school. i wonder if i will miss school, this school that i have love to hate, or if i will miss life as a college student, or if i will finally find the answer to my existence. i want to feel something, i don't want to be yet another cookie pressed out of a cutter, making my way to the next phase of life just because i have to, and because society dictates it.

“some people feel like they don't deserve love. they walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past.”
“This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until its done. It's that easy, and that hard.”
