High School Reunion Afterthought

I feel like I am drifting away from my old high school friends and classmates, and I am not feeling as bad or sad as I probably should. 

They are most of them shooting off into the booming economy of the country working for big financial institutions as accountants or investment bankers, while I, along with a few others, go off to be linguists, historians, or theologians specializing in Tibetan Buddhism or History of Western China. Wow, I guess my team sounds way more awesome on paper lol. 

Cheers,
