The last time I came here was the end of last year.
Yet another year.
I think it's time to move back a little and start thinking about life.
Many things have happened in the past year, but I guess there are too much to say if I wish to conclude many things.
Today, I went back to volunteer with elderly visitation after months of working on Saturdays and other personal matters. Actually I was contemplating... So much that I feel like I want to go, there are personal matters pulling me back.
I was so glad that I went though. The last visit of the year. Old and new experience. Persuaded an old friend whom I have known since the first day I came to this place to volunteer again. Dear friend, welcome back. :)
I felt rather amazed how elderly can remember things. The very friendly elderly lady I always looked forward to visit asked me to clean her kitchen pipes for her because she remembered I was the one who cleaned it previously. I didn't even remember it myself! Seeing that I had not visited for months and I had long since left the cleaning scene to the young people as much as possible, that must have been so long back. Well... I'm not complaining. I was quite touched actually. To be remembered for such things means a lot to me. These elderly will remember what little things you did for them. I will make a point to remember to make it cleaner the next time I visit.
Honestly, I do miss him at times. Sometimes I wonder how I could have liked a person so much without really knowing him in depth. His passion, his dedication, his everything. Yet I can't bring up the courage to tell him I like him.
