Today I’m going to talk about a friend who I recently reconnect with. Her name is Jack. We used to study at the same school and we were really close to each other but then we got separated into different class. Oh sorry, different school. So we had less chance to talk to each other and we become a stranger. At the time I went to a shopping mall and I saw her with her mother. Then I quickly walked to her and say hi. That time it made me feel that this is, it made me realize that oh how and why I forgot about one of my best friends. I really missed our shyhood life when we have a chance to spend time with each other. So at the end of our conversation we planned to go on a trip to Pataya with our old friends to reconnect our relations again. And we, even though we are back from shopping mall already, we still keep in touch by chatting on the application that is called InstraGM. So I asked her how is her life now. She told me that it was better but she didn’t get close to her new friends like when we used to be in a group. So, and I also think so to open our mind or our heart to be close is anyone that we just knew is very hard for us. And yeah, and I, and it brings me a lot of my shyhood memories.

Today I'm going to talk about a friend whom I recently reconnected with. Her name is Jack. We used to study at the same school and were really close to each other, but then we got separated into different schools. So we had fewer chances to talk to each other and became strangers. One time, I went to a shopping mall and saw her with her mother. I quickly walked up to her and said hi. At that moment, it made me realize how and why I had forgotten about one of my best friends. I really missed our childhood life when we had the chance to spend time together. At the end of our conversation, we planned to go on a trip to Pattaya with our old friends to reconnect our relationship. Even though we had already left the shopping mall, we still kept in touch by chatting on the application called Instagram. I asked her how her life was now. She told me that it was better, but she didn't get close to her new friends like we used to be in our group. I also think that opening our minds or hearts to be close to anyone we just met is very hard for us. And it brings back a lot of my childhood memories.
