Friends?

Friends?

There are people who shows sooooo much effort to be your friend and yet its only a One way relationship. And yet there are those people whose presence does not need to be forced for you to feel connected.

Friends are people i feel like talking to or doing things with them without it feeling like a chore (even if what you are doing is actually a chore). Friends are people i can talk anything about.
Why i chose my circle as my circle is because, they will be there when you need them. You can count on them to have your back. You can have fun together and yet they will slap your face if they have to. You can talk to them about all your hopes and dreams and aspirations. You can tell them what is on your mind with them honestly telling you how brutally twisted you are.
They are there but not intrusive in their ways. They are clingy at times and yet you don’t feel smothered.

We need not have the same priorities. Or same mindset.

I need not worry what to say in front of them because they will understand. Agree or disagree, it does not matter, for our friendship will go on past these.
I am an open book to my friends. I volunteer information about myself without them asking.

If i can’t tell you where my phone came from, even if you force the truth out of me, then maybe…

Goodbye Davin…

It was surreal, it still is.

This makes me wonder when and if things are really going to be okay.

How do you actually say goodbye? When they leave, they make you sad, and what makes it even worse is that you miss them and there’s no way to relieve it.

I am supposed to be studying but I can’t concentrate, I can’t bring myself to read all these things. Just the thought of losing someone is enough to make my stomach churn.

How do you accept that someone is gone and is not coming back? How do you tell his loved ones that it will all pass?

What do I remember about Davin? He was my classmate for my last high school year. I am not his best friend nor his trusted confidant. I know him as the skinny kid who smiles a lot. He is kind to me, with sweet pranks at times. Teary eyed, as I remember him with my few memories of him, I cannot imagine the pain that his lived ones are going through now…

This was a really bad surprise of fate. Our class already went through this before, but that still does not prepare you for anything, it does not mean that you are not going to cry, it does not mean that you will not feel bad. We have lost two young, smart and kind people in our class already. Ate Rita, wherever you are, you are with Davin now, may you two find peace. We will remember happy memories of the two of you as we go on to this journey, one day, we’ll all see each other again. This just isn’t fair! We mourn because you left us; we will cope don’t worry. It’s just sad. We celebrate your life and I thank God that He made our paths meet…

 

the beginning of a metamorphosis

One of the great days before graduating is the day for the graduation photoshoot. To me it was indeed a fun day. Well for people who love to take picture of themselves (that includes us) at least. It was even more special hanging out with your friends whom you shared your college life with.

Too bad that one of my closest and AIT friends, June, was not there that day to share that moment with me. 😦 But nonetheless, here are our pictures, enjoy!

Our deepest gratitude to Zone 5 photo Studio for the wonderful images.

This indeed marks a metamorphosis, a day when a caterpillar wraps himself in a cocoon to emerge as a beautiful butterfly. Though it might be uncertain what life may bring these babies, they still will continue to face life head on. Change is scary, but if we do not face these fears we will not know if there is something better. We have to challenge these fears, and risk everything, we’ll never know, it might be worth all the risks. What do we have to lose?
