Different Places; Same Faces

This blog, once bustling with constant updates for people to see,
Is now but debris floating amongst the sea.
Merely a fragment of our memories, fallen from grace,
Like a stray asteroid floating amidst boundless space.

But now there is you, random wanderer,
Who stumbled upon this place, for reasons that don't matter.
Come, sit down, let me tell you how,
How the S3X members are doing now.

If you didn't know, it's Salt writing here,
About to finish university July this year.
Will be back home in Malaysia for good after this.
Also secured a job offer, much to my bliss!

Daena still lives in his crib at the back of Catholic High.
Developed a smoking habit that makes me sigh.
Pursuing a degree in UM, graduating in one and a half year or so.
He is fatter than me now, still got himself a girlfriend though....

ChengZhi is still pursuing his medical course, now posted to Seremban,
Attending to hospital duties everyday, busy yet fun.
How far he has come, from the emo kid back in high school,
To an aspiring doctor now, no longer playing a fool.

ChingYeap is still pursuing his degree at Kampar.
Chimes in once in a while to talk about Pokemon and car.
Also got a girlfriend now, such a sweetheart,
Yet still so addicted to his Pokemon card.

Xain is still in Australia and not coming back yet,
Doing a masters program, has his next two years set.
He obscures himself, only showing up once a blue moon,
But says nothing much and disappears too soon.

Desma is still the same, unfortunately.
The teeth-clenching horse that we like to bully.
Quite the peculiar horse that doesn't eat hay,
The most unchanged person in the gang, that much I can say.

WeiWen is... well, like this blog past its prime.
Slow drifted away from us over time.
As we move on in life we leave things behind,
And I guess for him, we are things of that kind...

As the merciless gears of time grind on without falter,
Our paths slowly diverge from each other. 
We might end up leading very different lives in the end,
Even though we shared such similar ones back then.

But let's hope years later we will still be together,
Hanging out and chillin' with each other.
And my thanks to you for taking this time of your day,
To listen to what I have to say.
