I feel lucky.

No matter where i go, no matter where i've been, no matter where i am heading to, i feel lucky that i have my girlfriends with me. I was looking through my diaries today. At first, i hesistated because my past affected me deeply as a person. Upon turning the cover to reveal the first page, my hesistation flew out of the window and i got sucked into a vortex, like a time machine transporting me back to my past.

I wanted to escape immediately but i could not help myself from reading on. So i did. Every single word and not once was there a time that i did not say that i missed the tots. Splattered all over the book, words like 'I wish Ayeesha was here...," " Bib and Hani wiped my tears when....", " Thank god for the tots...or else....". And i said to myself, I don't think many people would actually stick by me after all these times and I dun think i would have cared for anyone else like that either.

See, there is a difference between your boyfriends and your girlfriends. Just that day, me and a few of my schoolmates were talking about how girls are so irritating,blah blah blah. But it is inevitable, a guy, it could be a boyfriend or the husband, can never get why his partner is so dependent on her girlfriends. I don't think i quite get it either. At least i don't think I get why it is generally like that but specifically, for me, being with these girls takes me back to the time when we were innocent, when dancing in the rain could bring so much joy, when sneaking out of the house was so terrifyingly 'shiok'. And the best part is, no matter what words escape from my mouth about them, i know that i can never bring myself to not care about any of them.

And i still stand by this, nobody can manipulate the feelings I have for my girlfriends. There will come a time when you feel like the whole world's weight is on your shoulders and you just wanna break down and cry. I bet half of the females in this world would speed dial their girlfriends.

My point? I just want to express how thankful that i have one hell of an assortment of close girlfriends.

Cheers.
