An Out of Body Experience
Yesterday was one of those days where it felt like I had something I'd like to call an out of body experience.
You see, some of the departments in my school had graduated yesterday including mine, and I had gone over there to go congratulate some friends of mine and also to help them sign on their white t-shirt. And this is because over here, we kinda have this tradition where during every graduation, the graduating students would all put on white shirts, while people congratulating them would walk over to them and just write on that shirt with markers.
This is a picture of me signing on a shirt of a friend.
What they write on it doesn't matter as it's a time of celebration and everyone is just having fun. So you see people writing all sorts of things on the clothes and it's always fun. And I had gone to do just that yesterday because I had friends who were graduating too, these were people who started 100lvl with me back then but had to take a year off from school due to one reason or the other.
Anyways, as I stood and watched everyone smiling, laughing and celebrating, something about that atmosphere gave me an out of body experience. It immediately took me back to a year ago when I too was putting on those white t-shirts and taking photos with friends while people wrote all sort of things on my sparkling white tee.
As I stood there, I immediately had the urge to want to feel all of that again, because if I'm not mistaken, that day was one (if not the one) of the best days of my life. That was the probably the first time people were congratulating face to face and it felt good. The whole of that day made me feel very special because it felt like all the attention were on me, and for the first time in my life, I loved it.
Anyways, it really was amazing to experience it once more, but this time it felt really really good because I now had an idea of the happiness they all were feeling, so I kinda connected to their feelings in a different way because I knew exactly the way they all were feeling.
