Friends

Friends. A very common word to everyone, I believe. To me, the word "friend" is rather subjective.. As in, everyone has their very own definition over "friends". At least to me, I'm surrounded by many types of friends， or perhaps I should say different degree of friends. Some are very close while some are not. Until recently, I realized that, I really have these different categories of friends which I sorta find it kinda interesting, that's why I've decided to blog about it.. (Though another reason is that I havent been updating my blog for quite some time =X)

Its always in down times that you'll get to see who are your friends and who are not. Recent life had been rather.. challenging I would say. Mood had been on roller coaster, ups and downs.. It deemed good when I was surrounded by friends, however, it went back down when I'm alone.. I think its because when people keep you company, then you wouldnt have the time to think too much.. Whatever it is.. I'm glad for these bunch of people.. At least I'm much encouraged.

First category of friends : Friends whom you need not contact all the time, yet they appeared whenever you needed somebody and your relationship with them wouldnt be affected even if you guys had not kept contact for quite some time. This category of friends, are one that I would say, dearest of all, or what others may call "Best friend". Everytime you guys go out, there's no need to worry that, what are we to talk about later, cause your conversation would just flow automatically.. There is never a gap in between.

Secondly, friends who would keep you company to make sure you're okay.. These are those you told them tiny little things that you dont often tell the whole world.. They would just cared and make sure that you are alright.. If you're not, they some sort either advice, or physically accompany you.. They are the one whom you feel comfortable being with.. You may mumble or even cry over the shoulders to seek relief..

Next, friends who do crazy things together, at most times, I think this category of friends have the similar personality as I am.. Of course not totally, completely same..But what I meant is that, we share something in common.. We enjoy doing something together and have fun together.. We in some ways, give each other company and laughter..

4th one, normal friends.. These are friends that chat a lil when we bumped into each other.. Not so much of a detailed conversation, but more to a casual one.. Friends whom we dont usually find but, when needed. (DO I sounded selfish here? LOL.) Dont get me wrong, I dont mean by "using" them, its just that, we dont often get together.. Once in a while maybe.. Hmmm...

Last category, which I dont actually count them as friends.. But nonetheless, someone whom I knew, but our relationship are just like :
Oh! Hi!
Oh! Bye!
Pssstt.. Hi-Bye friends? Someone who are like total strangers and would only thought of them when you came across their name or met them on the street.. Or else, you wouldnt even remember them. =X

When I was much younger, I used to tell myself that, I dont need anyone, even if Ive got no friends, nothing will happen.. Of course, nothing will happen.. But, now I'm of the opinion that, friends are quite important. In times of need, especially when you have no one to talk to, they play great roles.. Just like now.. (To me)These few people, just did too much recently.. When I think I could no longer hang on.. They showed me that, "san, we're with you!"; they shared me their ears, their shoulders; they spent time and they cared.. Dare not say I'm totally okay, but I'm grateful that I have these bunch of people..
