Went to meet an old friend, Daniel last week in Nottingham. He is a friend that i'm quite close to, sometimes... and sometimes not. we were in different groups during our college years, we have totally different interests and characters (well, mostly because he is a bit 'soft' externally). Two complate strangers but have our life intersect due to the fact that both of us originate from the cat city, Kuching. i still remembered the endless long talks we had in the KLIA airport while waiting in the queque to squeeze our butt into any available seats for MAS flight to Sarawak. well, its all history now as airasia bloody cheap ticket came to save the day.
We spent quite a few sunset together watching aeroplane flew and landed, the nicest environment to have decent conversation and for friendship to bloom. and yet we remain as flight mate for the four years of our college days. I guess some friends are meant for the 'moment' and not always.
come back to my story, The nottingham trip was alright, went to the nottingham castle, saw the Robinhood statue, wondering around the city centre. The most interesting part is the visit to the Nottingham university. With the lake and swams swimming gracefully, the greenest and widest fields, rows and rows of cherry blossoms, nice hostel, the university looks like a holiday resort than a place to study.
we have a nice double scoop ice cream while watching the ducks diving into the water showing their butt to us. walking through fields and fields watching couples laying on the grass sunbathing and hot blokes playing footballs. Gosh, it reminded me of the Beverly Hills 90210, feels like the heavenly university life. And of course we have lots and lots of picture taken.
The whole trip was in a rush though, cuz we have to catch the train back to liverpool at 6pm. That night, when i looked through the photos taken during the trip, warm feelings blossomed inside of me. We were smiling so happily in the picture, just like the good old days when we were still in college. i like to believe that the me on that day were frozen in time forever when the photos was snapped. Apart of me will always remained in that moment of time. The smile that we had will last for eternity in that picture.
