F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

When was my last post? I guess it was donkey years again.. 'Eh.. why so long never post?' 'Busy lah..'

But of course, something that prompted me to post at this point of time when exams is round the corner, **to be exact, tomorrow, 1300 is the first war**, it is definitely something that is going to be heavy again. Haha..

FRIENDS. Hmm.. How many friends do you have? My facebook tells me that I have 883.. But do I? hmm.. I dunno. What about you? How many friends do you have? Who are called your friends? Who are they exactly? What are the attributes of a friend? It seems to me that it is a very loosely used word.

How do I define friends then? What are they to me? I have posted something about friends before and it struck me again because of some observations that I had recently. I have mentioned it that friends are those who come to your mind immediately when you have problems and you know that you can trust you life with in their hands. So do I have friends like these? I think I do. Some of the names that immediately popped into my head are names such as Daniel Yong, Shun Ying, Yenshun, Sydney, Caderam, Kenny Tan Yik Ming, Koo Chieh Yang, Xiao Qian, Joel Wong Heng Yi, Toh Yong Soon and so on... So are there names that takes a long long time to pop up too? Definitely there are..

I often wonder.. Do you place yourself over others or others over yourself? And what about friends.. It is easy to say that I will place my friends before me and not myself before my friends.. But what about when you are doing it.. Do you really place them before u? or after? Do you care about yourself 1st or others? Are you stupid or selfish? it is all a matter of perception.. I was reflecting upon some incidents that made me think really deep into the meaning of friendship.. What exactly is a friend? Do you even have a friend?

~True Friends stab you in front.~

I am going to start stabbing people soon..
