~Updates Updates!~
Ok...u all are probably sick of me talking about the issue of friendship...but since we're on that topic I might as well continue rite? Hehe...bear with me...
So how do u know when a person is being your true friend or not? For me, I have a very careful approach in "labelling" someone as a friend since I was betrayed so many times before. It often takes quite a long time and have to go through some certain events that will make me "label" someone as a good friend.
Here I am...living with 4 other girls (or used to anyway...one left already) and I was thinking the other day whether they are my friends or not. Maybe they are now...but I think most likely I would "label" them as someone I know once and befriended but that's it! ok...maybe the better word is aquintance.
However, on last friday, an event made me think otherwise in this relationship I have with my flatmates....
On friday, I went out with 2 of my flatmates, D and N, for dinner. It was D's last night with us as she was moving home the next day. During the course of the dinner, we started talking about D leaving us the next day and how I would leave them "forever". They then started planning a trip that would take place 4 years from now to singapore to see me and how I must take 10 days leave from work (if I have a job then...lol...and yes they intend to stay in sg for 10 days!)
Suddenly, N was apologizing that she is getting emotional and is tearing. Then D told her not to worry, she was not the only one, she is feeling it too. I then turned and looked at both of them...true enough, both their eyes were swelled up with tears! I was shell-shocked I tell ya! (Guess I'm not that emo afterall 'cos I was not really feeling anything!)
It was at that moment that I realised how serious they were treating this friendship. They really meant to keep it going. It touched my heart...it really did.....
By the way...a scary thing happened that night as well...but I shall tell you about it tmr or something.....
