Reunion

My 10-year high school reunion is only a few weeks away. Just out of curiosity, I looked through the Evite invitation that has been circulating around. 140+ people are planning to attend the event, along with their spouses and significant others. After browsing the "YES" list of names, it was sad that I was able to only recognize a handful of names. Some I recognized the name, but couldn't recall the face. Some I had no clue that they even attended the school, let alone in the same class! Some people on the "NO" list who couldn't make it to the event managed to drop a note of their recent being -- names of cities, countries of residency, names of spouses, children, profession, etc. It's quite interesting to read about where people have spread to and how their lives have changed. 10 years (from 18yrs old to 28)-- not a extremely long time, but definitely an important time in our lives. The paths we took, the decisions we made, whom we met, what has become of us -- really depended on these 10 years. Looking back at my past 10 years -- wow. I've really gone a long way.
