The things I’ve miss.

The things I’ve miss.

        Circling an old man like the moon circling the sun, my grandpa has no chance of catching me. Running around the house shouting “Ah~” and feel the sound twist as I shout through the fan. Grabbing on to my grandma’s dress asking, “Please, please, grandma? May I have candy please? Please?” and she knew the only way to open the door to let me go was to give me the right “key”. Wrestling my cousins in the farming fields, running around holding bamboo sticks as swords, and sitting next to the road counting the number of cars passing by, it was a time like heaven living with my cousins and my grandparents, but they died so we moved. I miss them.

As Leo, Jack, Tom, and I play with the newest toy Tom got, we were happy. Throughout the first and second grade we were best friends. There is no doubt about our “brothership” together as we share every single happiness and unhappiness between us, we were so closely bonded that if you don’t take a good look, you will see one person there instead of 4. The latest model of Pokémon just came out, and Tom got the limited edition for it! We ran around his room like kids on a playground and there seems to have no end until the day of my transfer to another elementary school. I miss them.

        Sun bathing on the side of the outdoor basketball court with our bellies shown, Frank, Victor, James, Kirby and I lies there, thinking of us flying in the sky or in space. Like the cartoons we watch, as the monsters approach in to our town, we think of ways to defeat them and how we are going to be heroes. The imagination soon ended due to another transfer to another school. I miss them.

        As eighteen guys packed in a six people sized room with their laptops and noodles everywhere. We were the ultimate group of gaming in my middle school. Gaming is the main and only thing in our dorm lives. We order drinks, snack, noodles, and food so we can all stay in this compact room having fun. Only time we would stop is when guys goes to the room next door and smoke while the rest of us doing nothing but to sit there, tired, but trying to feel happy. We rocked the gaming network and we were happy. As the grade goes, I was dragged out from the group and my gaming life ended. I miss them.

        As Joe, Mark, and I runs around the track being punished due to us wearing our pants too low and having tattoo stickers on our arms which breaks the uniform rule, it was hot and tiring. But we never thought about our mistake, instead, we think about how we’re getting in shape and the kinds of girls we can get. It was some funny moments as we try to laugh but we can’t because “We’re punished?” Ha!

        As time goes, I took off to America, where I believe could make my dream comes true. I left my friends, and seriously, I miss them.
