Old mails

Bosses are away in Manila, and I can get a breather to do my own things for a while. It was said that I would be flying to and fro Manila soon, so as to coordinate betw site and office (according to new PM). Well, we'll see :)

Anyway, I was clearing and reading some old mails in my yahoo mail. Came across some mails which was archived since Yr 2000. Yeah, i am appalled by this too, how can i keep mails which are almost 7 yrs old?!?! They did bring back memories, mostly bittersweet ones, which made me reminicised abt the past and wat an irony: those words/scenerios which i found to be sweet and romantic when I was 17yrs old > I find them to be mushy and overwhelming at 24 yrs old. Haha~~ maybe age has really caught up with me, or it is when ppl gets older, they tend to look for different things/excitement in life? Sweet sentences and the word 'love love' do not evoke as much feelings as before. The outburst of love and passion struck me as too over-do and very childish.

I must admit that I have changed. When i was 17yrs old, all i cared was happiness, love love, sweet sweet and short-term joy, and the huge of amt of time we must spend together everyday. Everyday must call/sms/meet up and talk talk talk, so sticky! Now at 24yrs old (*great, the whole world knows how 'young' i am now!!), i look at things in a more pragmatic manner, sweet and honeyed words will not get me far and spending all day together will not make 2 ppl bond tighter. How is love developed between 2 persons? How can 2 persons who are different, maybe quite opposite, with different working schedules/way of living/characters/personalities/backgrounds etc, come together and develop feelings for each other? Haha~~ :)

So much being said, one thing is for sure: mature/older/steady guys are my cup of tea! Hoho :)
