Thank You

*An appreciation post out of nowhere, but I do want to thank these beautiful girls, you know who you are :) *

At the start of high school, I reached a low point in my life. Having being split up from my old friends, I found myself in a sea of unfamiliar faces, all of whom seemed to be outgoing, fun and could get along very well among themselves. Although I used to be an extrovert, being thrown into an uncertain, new territory threw me off guard. I retreated into myself, burying myself into my books. Even my parents noted that I "wasn't being myself".

Though I excelled in my studies, I felt emotionally empty within, as I had lost my identity in this huge population of students whom I couldn't be myself around, no matter how hard I tried. One of my only old best friends also backstabbed me during this time of trial. It was hard, and I seriously thought about the possibility of never being able to truly be that happy, fun-loving, enthusiastic girl again.

However, that all changed when I joined the prefects' board, and met one of my high school best friends. She was one of the loud, fun, jokesters, and everyone loved hanging out with her as she had the exceptional talent of bring laughter wherever she goes. Somehow, we connected. And that triggered a catalyst, and suddenly, I was able to rekindle camaraderie with a few of my old friends, and forged new friendships.

Somehow, the eight of us clicked, and remained close all through high school. Today, despite having headed off in different directions and attending different colleges in eight different countries and states for more than a year, we are still somehow in each other's lives. And I am beyond thankful for that. These seven girls, all of who are blossoming into mesmerizing young women, will always be close to my heart, for we shared laughter, tears, adventures, worries, aspirations, troubles, arguments, secrets and dreams with each other.

This bond was forged to be strong, and strong, I believe, it will remain.


Thank you, my friends, or should I say, sisters.

You are blessings to me, and I hope that I had somehow been a blessing to all of you too.

Cheers. 

Love,
