The truth is, some memories live in the heart forever, not because they are grand but because we shared an experience together. We were not perfect back then, we made a lot of mistakes and also learnt from these mistakes, which I am aware of. My University days were so beautiful, because I had a lot of close good friends that I will always be proud to have in the future now and forever. Some we still keep in touch with while others are just gone like that.

We were just a small circle, but the small circle turned out that some people had risen above the normal standard, while others, like me, were just there. Now I know so many rich friends and also the struggling ones like me. People will often say it is part of life. Our time is still coming, but the truth is, for how long will it come? This is what I keep asking myself. It looks like I tend to enjoy my past with them than in the future.
Life does not always give us what we want; instead, we embrace life and attain a certain level we really want to achieve. It's all part of life; this is what keeps me going and moving in life to become a better person in life. Friends are one of the greatest gifts I have learnt a lot from about life.

Looking back, I realised those days were more of a connection than just friendship, I truly learnt a lot from them, their drive, motivation and what keeps them going. These are all part of life. I still keep in touch with some of them while others are already too big for my standard. I accept this as part of life, which is why I keep on upgrading myself to become a better person, not just for my future but for everyone else around me. May God give me the big opportunities to live a better life in this very harsh world.
My best memories were talking about our girlfriends' experiences, the flaws and everything, these are all that make us men. I learnt a lot from them, even their insecurities, back then. Although I was not wise enough to discern it back then, I kept on going as usual, which I take as part of life. I also remember the naughty experiences we had back then, I don't pray to experience them again now, that I am mature enough to realise a lot of mistakes I have made.
Growth is the most significant of all, not by age but by achievement, we keep moving on to attain our mental and physical development. If there is one thing I have noticed in this world, it is that all hands are not equal, so I just try my best to attain a certain perfection by learning tech skills I truly have an interest in, and this has opened my knowledge to so much understanding.
