i think i'll cry...

...yesterday night i was thinking, how would i feel if i ever get back to Melbourne one day?...
...then i started imagine...
...the moment i get off the plane at Melbourne airport, i think i'll whisper :" after all these years, i'm here again..." and then looking around, realising that my friends are not with me this time, i'll be a little bit sad...
...if i ever get back to Melbourne, for sure i'll walk pass the Graduate House again, even though i can't stay there, i'll at least drop by and "visit" it again. "Hmmphh, i stayed here last time, yes, in the old wing of the building, with my best friends..." yeah right, we really spent a lot of nice moments in the house...
...going back to Melbourne, taking the tram is simply something u can't miss. i'll hop on the tram, going around in the city, visiting again every single place we visited before... Botanical Garden, the Shrine of Remembrance, Melbourne Zoo and many more... in my mind i'll say :"Hey, i've been here before! with my best buddies!!" and then look around and observe their changes after all these years... yeah, things may have changed a lot by that time, so do people... maybe they have becomed different people, leading their own lives, and im the only one who still cherishing our memories there... people and the surroundings change with time, we just couldn't do anything about this...
...of course, going back to Melbourne, i won't miss Phillip Island. miss all the cute penguins there... if i have the chance to drive, maybe i'll drop by at the surf shop we dropped by too, on the way to Phillip Island... doing the same pose again on the surfboard in front of the shop im planning, just that... will it still be there? sigh
...a walk on the streets is a must-do-thing for me if i ever go Melbourne again... we did most of our journey there on feet, and most of the time running. i will never forget the time we ran here and there just to watch the fireballs and take a nice picture of it... it sounds silly, but hey, it was a good memory indeed! "Hey, we did that as teens before! a lot of people simply don't have the chance to go nuts like us..."another run i remember the most was the run in the rain at night... we ran back to the House after hopping off the tram... i never knew getting wet was that fun, even though everyone was all wet and running in the rain, we were actually laughing and enjoying a good time, weren't we? at least i enjoyed it... i always hoped that we would have another chance to get wet in the rain and running in the rain, just that it didn't happened anymore...if it really rained at night when im there again, i think i won't hesitate to go out and run on the streets again, just as what we did before... silly? yes it might be... but i just want to have that feeling for another time...just one more time...
...and finally, a cup of gelato at Little Bourke Street, if im not mistaken... buy a cup of gelato and have a nice evening walk on the streets, like what we did last time, haha... i think the gelato will still be nice, but the taste will never be the same anymore without you guys, the taste of friendship is gone without you all beside me, and the gelato will not be as sweet as i first tasted it that time... that was the best gelato i had, i believe...
...the memories we had in Melbourne are to be cherished for my whole life, an experience not to be forgotten, and it shall never be forgotten... these memories are irreplacable, by anyone... so i think, if i ever get back to Melbourne, i think i'll cry... really, i think i'll cry...
