About Friendship

Currently Listening to: Hips Don't Lie by Shakira

I consider myself UNLUCKY in this Friendship category. I think I am just doomed in that department.

Maybe I just high expectations. I don't know. But I am for sure so sick and tired of watching the world goes upside down. People are supposed to turn for the better not for the worst. I guess that's a so called LIFE. LIFE IS HARD, GET A HELMET.

I wanna be like Rachel and Phoebe and Monica. It's just nice to have that close knit friends to be there with you every step of the way, every milestone of your life. Or.... it's just nice to drink coffee with them at a coffee shop. Or..just going through this so called life together.

When I was in high school, I got plenty of friends. I went to a small high school so everyone knows each other and the baggage that comes with them..down to the detail of each other's personal life (not good ..eeekkk). But then again, I lost almost all of my friends when we got to college because of sooo many different reasons. I guess we just went our own separate ways.

My bf and I had a conversation about friendship the other day. We discussed the fact that friendship does make a huge impact in both of our lives. And... we also look inward into ourselves on our relationships with our friends here. We found out through our discussion that people may behave in a certain way because of the change of environment..cieeehhhhh. But seriously. It is soooo hard to understand these people. I mean not all of them are weird but some are just over the top messed up! and for us, as much as we would like to accept them for who they are, it's just plain hard to do because they're just not being themselves. For instance, just like what I said in my previous post, watching these people turn from nonsmokers to die hard smokers, from non drinker religious people to alcoholics, to clubbers, and most importantly leading a reckless life. Yes...they do exist here. Is freedom a factor here? I mean....this might be a one time chance that they get to go crazy because they are away from their family or something. Or maybe I am just a plain old fashioned gal. But then again, who am I to judge?

SIGH

So bottom line here.... I think finding a friend who shares the same value of life is very important. For me, loyalty is highly valuable. Since finding good true friends is difficult makes me value the ones who have been with me all through these years... no matter how many seas, mountains and lands apart we are.

To my girl, you know who you are. Congratulations on your new chapter in life.
