The nostalgia lane

Was in the delete mood. so was checking old mailboxes to clear out old stuff. and found mails written a couple of years back. of hopes, of disappointments, of friendships, of expectations, of betrayals, of let downs .. brought back flashes of all those times. some loving memories. and some dear dear people. emails from home. back then, when we were not msn freaks. when we didn't chat everyday. when we regularly exchanged emails. a weekend email from dad. and a one off senti email that mom'd write everytime she had those bouts-of-missing-me. and replies to my rants from my sis. the kid, she gave me such useful advice, i cant believe it. then of course, friends. emails from those who no longer keep in touch. emails from those whom i cant spend a day without talking to now. amazes me how i was so formal with them back then. and of course, i read emails. emails from joe. such adorable emails. almost as if i couldn't help falling in love with him all over again. i couldn't stop giggling at the cuteness of some his mails. the perfectness of it all. but then, i had to pull away. i stepped out of Nostalgia Lane back to reality. my present reality. and boy, reality bites. really!
