Meet Up with a Lab Mate

On the afternoon of 27 August 2025, I had the chance to reconnect with one of my old lab mates from the 2011 to 2013 days. He now works at a public university in Semarang and happened to be in Skudai for a meeting earlier in the day. Later tonight, he’ll be heading to KL for another meeting tomorrow. Such a packed schedule!

The last time I saw him was before Covid-19, probably around 2019. A lot has changed since then. He looks noticeably slimmer now, thanks to cutting out sugar and carbs from his daily routine. A lifestyle shift that really shows.

It felt refreshing to catch up after all these years, sharing updates on life and reminiscing about our lab days. Encounters like these remind me how important it is to pause and reconnect. At the end of the day, it’s good to know that we are both still here, well, and moving forward with life.

Until then, here’s to more chances to meet old friends and create new memories.
