10 years and counting

Today while I was showering; suddenly felt very thankful to Sophia for sticking by me through thick and thin. Especially this few months... Thank you God for bringing my friends into much life.

When all was dark, and I was falling, I prayed and prayed and prayed.. These people were the ones that pushed me forward.

Some people leave, some people stay. Some people are worth your time, some people are not. Some treat you as a priority, some just treat you as an option. Overtime their true colours will show.. :)

But now; BFF:

Thank you Sophia, I know you aren't reading this. But still...

Thanks for being always there.

When I called and bawled my eyes out over my broken heart; you were there.

When I was going nuts over As, you were there.

When I saw no reason to carry on; you were there.

Thank you for being so patient with me.

Thanks for answering my calls and messages immediately when you knew I was upset. That meant a lot; thanks for knowing the urgency, for knowing how much I needed help...

When I was feeling useless, and blaming myself over and over again over what I had done wrong in that relationship; thanks for telling me that I deserve better.

Thanks for telling me to cheer up, and for encouraging me on. Thanks for having so much confidence in my abilities. At that moment, i really needed that reassurance that I wasn't useless, that I could conquer As.

And when my heart couldn't mend immediately, and I desperately tried to get him back, to fix everything, to apologise, to do anything so that everything will be alright; thanks for always supporting me and backing me up.

Thanks for putting me as a priority despite your own busy schedule... Despite the fact that you have your As too.

Thanks for showing me what friendship entails: at that point, I was even questioning myself, asking myself if I was being too demanding, too sensitive, too needy. Thanks for showing me that I wasn't the one with a problem. Thank you for showing me what it means for someone to care about you. We all need some reminder. I honestly thought that I was being too needy, too emo, too selfish. Thanks for showing me that I wasn't the selfish one.

Those were dark days that I never wanna relieve again. But at least there's a silver lining: I know now, more then ever, who to trust and treasure.

This is true friendship. Being there, no matter what.

Some people are just worth more than others in our lives.

I remember when we were kids, hanging out by the drain during recess during primary 5, later on going out to JE to hangout, play arcade, take neo prints, hahaha.. Arguing over stupid things like whether I'm gonna join the so called popular gang for captains ball, fighting over stupid stuff (I'm glad we got over the fighting phase as we matured LOL), having cold war during bintan camp, going to westmall for movies, walking about malls doing absolutely nothing...

Growing up to become awkward teenagers, going out after school to central to eat Macdonalds, KFC, sumo house, to date you still remain the only person who is willing to eat Pizza Hut with me over and over again, how we'll always go find each other after class, how we'll talk about whichever boy was in our lives at that moment, of course all the random outings during the holidays, too many to write here!

And then entering college life... Mugging together, less time to meetup but I'm glad we never drifted. Feeling abit tired now so I shall not write too much.

10 years of friendship and counting.

And many more to come. University life, travelling overseas, countless more movies, more heartbreaks, more shopping trips, more doing of stupid things to come. and eventually, job hunting, maybe marriage (head bridesmaid!), looking for new homes, gossiping about our husbands, complaining about our kids, comparing the results of our kids, etcetc. i look forward to spending each milestone of my life with you.

Thank you for being my bestfriend. :)
