My devotion until the goodbyes

I love food. But I especially love food even more during exams or midterms. So today while I was at home, I was eating while studying. Noodles, fried rice and Asian pears during the day or while Lee was at work. On his way home, I had him fetch junk goodies for me. Among the fruit cereals, chocolates and fruit cake, I got him to buy me a bag of skittles, much to his objection of course.

I opened my bag of skittles and popped a few of the green ones and realized, I really don't like skittles as much as I used to. It really is just sugar candies with some artificial fruit flavors on top. How in the world did I used to love eating these candies that "taste like rainbow" for so many years of my life? I really wonder sometimes. But like all things, I move on as I step on to the different stages of life. And skittles just happened to be one of them.

Oh skittles, I was so loyal to your original side for so many years but when the sour side of you came out, I thought I'd try and accept it but it still wasn't as original as you were. I then parted with you for awhile, thinking I have to be on my own and not love you as much. But now, when I came back to be with you, I realized my feelings towards you had changed. It really was good for awhile, wasn't it, being with you? I suppose now is really a good time to say goodbye even though you were my first true candy-love. Goodbye, my love.
