peter pan

the boy who never wants to grow up.

sometimes i get surprised that i'm turning 30 this year. i can't be 30! time flies so fast and i feel like i havent learned all that i want to learn. it doesnt feel like i've lived half of my life already. in so many ways im still that kid who loves to chase dragonflies and climb trees. i had a very happy childhood, a period of my life spent mostly on my own. and i loved it.

i miss being a child. i miss those times when i am not preoccupied with matters of great consequence. when a bag of chippy is heaven and my favorite pastime is reading comics in a noisy marketplace.

i miss bastekobre,bayay-bayay,tago-tago,buyan-buyan,riding bikes,ping-pong,swimming, joy-rides, tru orange,acacia... haayyy...

peter pan is right: "Forget them, Wendy. Forget them all. Come with me where you'll never, never have to worry about grown up things again."

I've been drepressed these past few days... Due to certain individuals who just gets into my nerves... Peter Pan is right. I don't have to worry much on those things. Nakakapangit. Tatanda ako agad!

oh yes. the joys of childhood.. i've always dreamed of going back to those days (although i have never regretted growing up and turning out to be what i am right now)...
but i do get scared of the fact that i'm not gonna stay like this forever.. i have to grow old :( hahay another year and goodbye teen life..
