i miss those times

when all of us crammed into one car and wander aimlessly to go makan while drinking slurpee.

when we looked all over town to find swings that weren't occupied by little kids. and when we found one, i could sit there for hours and just look at the sky.

when we would all gather at someone's house and just chill out with games, or movies, or just random stuff.

when we would make jokes about each other and no one would take any offence.

when i could look at a piece of paper and start writing.

when i could take my 10 years old leerun and cycle everywhere.

when we would go to the field and just fly kites, and make it go so high, the string would snap and we would try to chase it.

when i can turn around and see familiar faces.

when i can talk and talk and come up with random shit at the centre of the discipline room.

when i could find my way around school with my eyes closed.

when i could barely finish a lap around the field in time, and still see people cheering for me.

when we would skip class and just spent the rest of the day debating or involved ourselves in drama.

when i could see teachers speak their minds like i've never seen before.

when i dont have to turn on the lights to sleep.

when i dont feel so alone.

when i would sneak into their room to get the psp and see them sleeping.

when i could sit in the passenger seat and just look out the window.

when we could drive all the way down to the johor border and turn back to kl for no reason.

when we could whisper to each other and make fun about strangers passing by.

when i could just lie down on the floor and look at the ceiling till i fall asleep.

i miss those two years.
