thoughts on long distance

i remember the times before we went long distance when i would stick to him like uhu glue. wanting to be with him at all times, as much as i could. to the extend of taking the public transport for 5 hours back and flow just to have that 2 hours together

i remember doing all the silly things back before long distance so that i have something to treasure and to always remember when he was going to be so far away.

i remember appreciating all the minutes and seconds we had together because i knew that it would be hard to come by when we went long distance

when long distance actually started,

the first few days was tough. all the we ever thought and imagined and joked about, came true. the challenges, the attention that we needed from each other but we were far away, even the wanting to hold hands. it was tough

but now as we enter into the 4th month of being far away, we're adapting pretty ok. there's the phone and the internet. people say that all the time. but going through the process personally, its hard to say that there is always the phone and the internet, nothing beats personalized face to face interaction. but when the first choice is not available, the second or the third choice is well appreciated.

the days when we meet each time each month, becomes so precious. cut down on sleeping just to have a few extra minutes or hours with each other. these days are much anticipated and counted down each month.

the wish would always be, time pass faster till we meet, and when we do meet, pass slower so that we will have enough time with each other. but then again, nothing is ever enough, especially when there is so much to share and to catch up with. and it has to be crammed up in those few hours we have together.
