3 Days at Hometown

Yup, 3 days at hometown. I bought the ticket earlier than I usually did when I was informed that our faculty will only have a break for 5 days,until... well,a new announcement was made on the last day of exam. 2 weeks of holiday,no kidding!!!

3 days are 3 days,nothing can be done much.Nevertheless,since my holidays differ from other university, I did't had any chance to meet any of my friends except one of my good ol' trustworthy friends (he came back for some reason). He wore his old favourite jacket as usual,but he looks older than I expected. How many months had it been since I saw him long time ago.

I went to visit my grandma and grandpa during those days. The landscape of my hometown changed so much after my 6 months of disappearance. My grandma grew older, same goes to my grandpa, who now can't walk as far as he used to in his younger age.

I look at my parents when i was at home, they grow gray hairs. Everything changed so fast. I hardly noticed things about this,oh,foolish me..

"Things change..." ,I murmured.

I took a tour around my grandma's house. I saw a framed old pictures of them. I was in awe. And there's a mirror below it. I saw my reflection,gloomy,unshaven," Even I look old.", i thought.

Suddenly I felt something in me died,a nostalgic feeling grows inside me.

"Things change..." ,I murmured.

When I was at home,my brother showed me the paintings he painted when he had a freetime after helping my parents. Marvelously,even his skills were already surpassed my skills.

"Things change..." , I mumured.

I stared at the lonely starry night that last night. I wish to change too, to sketch in people's heart, to be a part of the colur there, to leave a footprints before i leave this world. Life is short. Even I am now rotting,i wish i could stay here a little bit longer,to find those treasures.

" In the river of time,

where humans rhyme

creating crimes,

oh,poor wasted time. "
