Wanderlust

Kianne, Francis, Ben, Asher, Jose, Jay, Hanah, me

You know those few minutes before you go to sleep? That moment where random thoughts run through your mind? The room is silent but your mind is loud. It's either the good kind wherein you think about things you've successfully done. What you have. Your dreams and your goals. More often than not, you'll end up with a smile on your face then off you go to dreamland. On the other hand, there's also the not-so-good kind wherein troubles, mistakes, regrets and failures enter your mind. Next thing you know, tears are streaming down your face and then you cry yourself to sleep.

Last night, I had that moment (I usually do) and thank God it was the good kind. After spending almost the whole day with friends whom I missed the most, there was nothing I can do but be grateful. Quick little scenes of wandering around toy stores, eating good food, catching up and having a good laugh flashed through my mind and instantly etched a smile on my face. It made me think that I might have done something really good to deserve friends like them. And when I clicked my iPod's next button, Jack Johnson's Better Together played. Yes, it's always better when we, guys, are together.
