witnessing one of your best mates step into his last official teenage year does make you feel that much older. especially when you were born a good few years ahead of the boy. looking at it now, i'm not sure who has it better.

it still comes as a surprise to me sometimes that AchaK is the youngest among us. fuck me, i can't think of any of my mates who just turned 19. had a small dinner get-together for the boy. though it wasn't really planned, it was still nice nevertheless. kinda like a last-minute surprise. and we all know how last-minute ideas work out better than planned ones.

you could see the silent contentment he had on his face when he blew out the candle. he joked that he'd wish for more patience and a better perspective on life. so typical of our beloved. always thinking of improving himself. but then again it doesn't come to much of a surprise. the dude has never acted anything like his age, as far as i can remember. like as if he's already in his twenties. good lad. a role model for kids his age, i say......

he's got a good head on his shoulders, that boy.

i hope he finds the kind of happiness he's been looking for......

bless.
