Met up with some friends a week or two back. And I was just amazed at the stuff we were talking about. Even we noticed it.
We came from the same background back in university. We are Computer Engineering graduates and are now in the workforce. I can still remember the times when all we talked about was where to have supper, what’s for dinner, can I I borrow your tutorials/lab logbook, etc. And here we are, a year or two into the workforce. And suddenly, our talking points change from all that is fun to all that is more serious. How’s work, I’m planning to get married when, do I hava enough to buy a house, where to buy that house, etc.
When that struck me, I found it quite scary. It’s like we really leaving a chapter of life behind for a new one. Yes, we said all that the day we graduated. But I guess the reality never really hit us till now. And it is so evident in the stuff that we talk about.
Just my two cents worth…. Until next time, cheers… :Þ
