Diary Game || Wednesday, 16 March 2022 : Nostalgic Night

in hive-153970 •  3 years ago 

I just discovered some folders in my laptop which is I've never opened in a long time, and I saw some photos that made me nostalgic for my college days. FYI, I graduated from university about three years ago.

The picture was taken during the first semester and it was on my birthday. My friends and I visited Bukit Bintang in Yogyakarta. We enjoyed a dinner together and spent the evening with talking. However, before we left, my friends surprised me with a gift that I still remember. They brought me a cake and played a prank on me, so I cried. FYI, we all came from different town and we met in Yogyakarta so that short trip helped us to get more closer and adapt to the new environment. It was a beautiful night.

I became close to one of my friends after that night. Even though we weren't dating, we became quite close, and the story was unforgettable. We and some of my other friends planned to do several short trips around Yogyakarta a few months later. The trips were very wonderful; getting lost together, laughing together, being sweaty together, and being rained on together were wonderful experiences. However, as we become more and more focused with the educational process, we are drifting more apart. We still greet each other, but it is obvious that we, including me and him, are drifting apart. Currently, each of us is working in a different town and try to pursuing our dreams, but we try to communicate, even if just say "hello, how are you?". We also trying to support and encourage each other if someone need.

Tonight is a wonderful night to remember about the story from when I was in college, and one thing hasn't changed for me since I was in junior high that Yogyakarta always be my a safe place to release my desires and my escaping place when my life gets rough. FYI, since junior high school, I've wanted to study at Yogyakarta, and I have already achieved it. However, even though that dream has been realized, it will always be my source of inspiration when I'm struggling to fulfill my other dreams.

Hola @reina, Siii!!! que bonito es recordar los momentos en los que luchamos por una meta, nada cómo el entusiasmo de tener una meta que nos apasione. Decía el señor Gabriel García Marquez "No dejamos de hacer cosas por estar viejos si no que estamos viejos y por que hemos dejado de hacer cosas" esto acá lo he repetido pero a veces la nostalgia no es de lugares o personas, si no del Ser que éramos en esa época, quizás de la vida universitaria añoramos el entusiasmo que teníamos de empezar algo nuevo, y quizás hoy mirando atrás entendemos lo importante de esa frase cliché que repiten mucho de " calma, vive el proceso".

Hola @styngrey, thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely comments on my post; your words truly made my day. gracias
