Summer is changing. No, Im not implying that we are facing an impending natural phenomenom. The ice caps aren't melting, polar bears aren't starving and forced to eat eskimos and no, pengiuns aren't starting to fly away for colder grounds. Summer is starting change for me. Its just becoming 
more 'self-discovery'. 

So basically its my last stay in Brunei (probably forever) and its not really the same hospitable place that i remember. For one my parents are alot...nicer? Perhaps my year long absence has thought them that the heart grows fonder in the absence of others? Or perhaps they are sugaring me up. Haha well I've only got into a big argument once, which well to be honest really little for a 2 month span. But within that one argument I learned alot about their past and perhaps this has rendered me to become a little more understanding.... Perhaps I've just become equally soft.

Friendships..... just like any kind of ship (i know, haha, im a comedic genius) sinks. I've always known that being a floater in High School was terribly unrewarding and has led be to become more distant with my high school buddies. Thankfully, there are those who I still hang out a bunch with and it feels like nothing ever changed. Im thankful for relationships like that. As for others, its become a little awkward and its blatant that our interests have drifted way way apart that its strongly reminiscent of the Breakfast Club. I've slowly become excluded in some groups which I don't really care about because I completely expected it and I was going to say that its sad when I think about it, but really it's not... and frankly, I don't really care that much. Im probably not going to see them for a long long time albeit ever again. Friendships are all about prioritizing, your best friends come first and your aquitance-like friends are at the bottom. (Disclaimer: If you read this blog, your probably way up at the top. I never tell anyone, i mean anyone about this... think freedom of critical speech)

Another good thing coming out of all this free time, a better appreciation for Columbus and my close buddies at Ohio State and also, my Dad is teaching my how to drive. Perhaps some much need parental bonding that I always soght after with my Mum and Dad. Summer 08 is not a lost, its just much needed and even though Im enjoying it, Im still longing hard for it to be the day where i set foot back in Cbus, and have a freaking good time with my friends.
