Old Friends, Old Memories, New Lives

In the advent that I'm being place in a room alongside my childhood friends and classmates, how long will be last? To be honest it's pretty difficult to decipher or pinpoint how long we'll all last in cheering, talking and reminiscing about the past, before we run out of words and things to talk to the point where the room will become silent. One thing I can say though is that there are many factors that would determine how long we'll last and below I'll be talking about those things and other related stuff, so without further ado let get to it.

One of the factor that could make the conversation span for long is the relationship we've had after childhood, have been been in contact after our childhood days or has the relationship ended with childhood. And that'll also determine if we can still recognise ourselves again, I mean almost everyone has changed, both in look and stature and so if we've not had relationship after childhood, we might need to start by introducing ourselves and then trying to make each person remember you. And to be honest, I barely remember most of what happened in my primary school and secondary days, and that includes my classmates and friends.

However, in the advent that we've continued the friendship after childhood then, the conversation would have gone several hours due to the cordial relationship we've kept going even after childhood. And in that context I don't have any relationship without any of my childhood friends and classmates till date. Although I do have phone numbers of some of my secondary schools classmates and we're all in the same old classmates group, but the truth is that I don't talk in the group, additionally, those I've their numbers, we mostly only view our status and nothing more beyond that, than some congratulations message when we see ourselves doing well.

Give or take, if we are to be placed in one room all together, given the fact that some of us will need to first start by introducing ourselves and giving description that'll help them others to remember us, all those introduction might take about 30 minutes, after that we can then move on to reminiscing about the past, reflecting on those memories will bring about laughter, smile and more conversation, that if we all go on to discuss could eat up about an hour or an hour and 30 minutes.

After we must have exhausted the reflection into the past, I guess the last thing we'll do is to try and catch present day life and how far we've come. This can help us get familiar with one another and also share ideals, while also seeing if we might calaborate in doing things going forward, like hiring each others service, so as to support each others businesses and the likes, this conversation can also last about an hour and by the end of the day, I think the highest we can last to keep the conversation going is not more than three hours. What about you? How long will you last with having a conversation if you are placed in same room with your childhood friends and old classmates?
