you know how sometimes you get nostalgic when you see someone you haven't seen since freshman year of college? or a bit more nostalgic when you see a high school friend? well have you ever had super-nostalgia, when you see someone from long ago in your past, with whom you share memories that only lasted for that particular period in your past because your friendship somehow abruptly ended and you haven't seen that person ever since? i just had a moment of super-nostalgia this morning. an old friend from 7th grade, whom i haven't seen or talked to since 7th grade because she moved back to china, just facebook friended me.

it's been 8 years.... dang i'm old...

instantaneously, i revisited memories that have been filed away and collecting dust in the corner of my mind. somehow i feel the need to fill her in on all the details of the past 8 years. i feel responsible in explaining to her how i got to where i am today and how i have changed. i'm not sure if i can do a good job of reflecting on all 8 years. it's hard enough to sum up this past year of my life. it's been a long journey and i wonder how she's like now too.

the www truly brings old friends back together.
