Some people say that when you have a significant other, he or she is all that you need, and you will neglect your friends. For me, its not true. I still need my friends.
As I headed home, most of my friends were still busy at work. I should be home early for I needed to mug for Monday's paper. But I felt kinda down, not being able to hang out with them since exams started.
Anyway coming Monday I will be celebrating birthday with some friends. I wanna say how grateful and happy I am to have them celebrating with me, but I think its stupid to "give a speech" then. So I will say it in advance here (perhaps not very sensible thing to do either?). In fact I ain't quite sure who will be going. Oh duh. However, I know among them will be my dearests. My darling, my best friend, my good friends over the years, friends who I slowly get to know better and are more than just colleagues to me. I am thankful to have you. You let me feel so loved, so important. You gave me confidence, you acknowledged and accepted me. You tolerated me, and my need for your attention. You forgave me and laughed at my crappy jokes. You lent me your ears and listened to my complains. You spent time on me, and you are going to celebrate my birthday for me. For all that and more I thank you and I am filled with joy. Mushy or corny, its better said than left in my mind. I appreciate it!
Will update the names or include a photo come Monday night! Having said that, I also appreciate the friends who I will not get to celebrate with. I will meet you soon. You know who you are hor? Read this post again, my tribute to friends.
Monday Two weeks later, we will celebrate my best friend's birthday too. If I am not your best friend you better don't to tell me hor, don't make me paiseh. Hah hah. We have been like real brothers since we reunited in uni. Lost touch after secondary school days. For four years we spent a considerable time together, probably more than that with our families. Eeks, sound so gay... Anyway, you bro, are my best friend. Happy birthday to you too. I wish you get healthy and fully recovered soon, of cuz must find that someone who will be going honeymoon with you to Europe soon. So soon, like maybe by the end of next year? Heh heh. All the best!
