Friendships

This year, I found my life more focused on my friends. Friends from high school and college, old friends and new friends as well. My relationship with them has been tested by time, distance and situations. Thanks to Facebook, I have found the people who has been a big part of my life. I have found my bestest friends who I lost touch years ago. So, this blog will be dedicated to my so called "friends".


Last month, I never thought I would be able to be this close to this female friend. Lets call her Ms. Suburbs. I always found her mysterious and very quiet, but after our Iloilo Trip/ Church hopping, we became close. We shared a lot of stories about life and love over coffee. We discovered how much fun it is to be in each other's company. When I transferred to the Suburbs, where we became neighbors, she showed me around and taught me the tricks and trade of commuting to and from our place. I'm actually glad she became a good friend. I'll always be thankful for her wisdom when it comes to problems of the heart. I'll never forget what she said about me being whole before I can give my heart to someone again. She was right.


The other female friend that I miss the most is Ms. Micro. Our names get mixed up a lot of times. She was my constant companion going to clubs and other places we can party. She was the coolest. I often sleep at her house after an overnight gimmicks and then hang-out with her cool mom too. Ill never forget the time that we were so drunk, we ended up sleeping at the parking lot outside White Avenue. We were always there for each other and whenever we get to hang-out together, we never, never had a dull moment. That's because we know how to par-teee!!!


The dearest of them all, is my BFF. Let's call her Apple. Ever since the day we met, I knew we were meant to be best of friends. Specially when we started going to work and going home together. Almost everyday. She's just plain crazy. Her laugh is actually contagious and her kindness is inspirational. She and her hubby were the perfect example of a perfect marriage. They inspired me to work on my own relationship so that i can have that stability I've always wanted in my life. However, fate plays with people sometimes. She somehow changed and it left me feeling abandoned. Things happened, stories were told, words were spoken and we felt a large rip on our friendship. It felt like I lost a sister. And just like sisters, we are trying to build that friendship again. She's the only person who knew all the details of my life and she is a big part of who I turned out to be after that terrible storm I went through. She is just the person I want to have around until I get old.

My best friend arrived from abroad too. We have been best friends for 17 years. We both have failed relationships and we both moved on. I am the godmother of her son and i hope she would be my kid's godmother too..soon..we have the same likes in bags and we are so addicted too shoes. We love strolling at the mall and just chit chatting all the way.non-stop! thats what I love about our relationship, no matter the distance, no matter how long we dont see each other and no matter how many people become part of our lives, when we see each other, its just us.best friends.forever.


2 weeks ago, my high school friends held a little get together. I met up with Jb and Lailani and had a fantastic time. It was like high school all over again. That's what I love about meeting up with old classmates. They bring out the past in me that I love so much. And at the end of this week, I'll get to see my college friends as well. Oh, I cant wait to see my gals!


Just as friendships go stronger, there are friendships gone sour. Lets see. When a person who you thought was your friend suddenly stabs you at the back by talking shit about you without knowing the whole story. People who you considered friends but then again, tells you how your life is such a waste but never looks at their own lives. People who thinks of themselves perfect, because they thought that everything they do is good but is mean to other people. People who becomes your friend because you have the money, you know some people and they can get something from you. People who you treat as friends, being there when they need you but then if you are asking for help, will leave you in the cold. THEY know who they are...and God bless their souls.


I am a friend to anyone and everyone. Treat me with respect and I will respect you back. Trust me like I trust you. If you don't want to be my friend, I do not care. I don't need another person to waste my life with.


Like the famous quote says: "Build new friendships but cherish the old ones."
