"You can be surrounded by a sea of people and still feel all alone."

Thank God for my friends.

It usually takes time for me to find a person worth keeping. I'm a little eccentric and I know that not everyone can keep up with that. I sometimes get raised eyebrows or frustrated looks when I mention a certain book or character I'm engrossed with, though that's not a reason to stop sharing stuff with people, of course.

Some of my friends are chatty, loud, and all, but I think I'm starting to get the trend now. Many of my close friends are dudes who I felt awkward with before. Many of them, I used to deliberately ignore, back when I was still mean and all. What's good is that I somehow managed to turn all of them into friends– and real, good ones at that. They're willing to walk around with me when I feel like sharing my thoughts, and listen to my ever-random rants about people and life in general. Truly, I thank God for my guy friends.

I thank God for my girl friends as well. The ones I can giggle with as much as I like, the ones I can share my juicy secrets with, and those who inspire me to become a better person. (Not that my guy friends do not inspire me to become better, of course) My girl friends are the ones I can run to when I feel like fangirling, or terminating the whole male species. Extreme ends of the spectrum, don't you think so?

I hope, though, that they (both male and female) enjoy the friendship as much as I do. I hope I don't bore or annoy them or whatsoever. I hope time and space won't succeed in drifting us apart after high school. I hope I can get to keep them as friends forever.

P.S. It's a sad thing that I don't talk to some people I used to consider as friends anymore. I don't know what happened. Life happens, maybe? I'm afraid to ask them for fear they won't even care, and I am afraid to ask the question to myself as well.
