friends & the best of them =)

got a little time to spare now so shall write my 'article'. the apostrophe's there cos it's jus sth i thought abt while feeling a bit emo a few day ago. heh. :p oh yes, it was mohan's birthday yesterday. HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY MOMO!! :) :)

you know, it's not easy to find best friends. sure, there're nice pple everywhere you go. but how many actually complement your personality and are willing to accept it? best friends are the greatest blessings and the best part abt them is that there's no upper limit of one. of cos, there may be 1 or 2 that is the closest to you out of all your best friends. those can consider them soul mates alr lah. hee. :) :)

anyway, i'm very very glad that in the short span of 2 years, i've found so many best friends (can't finish counting on 1 hand!) and a perfect soul mate. :) considering i didn't have many before that were so close and long-lasting, i really treasure you gals. (u know who u are! :)) jus for fun, i shall attempt to define a best friend here but there's definitely much more than this! ;)

anatomy of a best friend/soul mate:

- a great mind (cos great minds think alike)
- observant eyes that can read you
- 2 listening ears
- a big smile :D
- a sealed mouth jus for secrets
- 2 helping hands
- a loving heart <3
- an upper torso of hugs
- laughter that runs in the blood
- skin thick enough to point your flaws out
- feet that can walk a mile in your shoes
- a mood detector that runs on perfect timing
- extra pockets of time for you
- a complementing personality
- a soul fated to yours!

pardon the terminology. this comes from a bio student. haha. :p hai, but everyone's so busy mugging nowadays so there's not much to talk abt except studies. it's even harder to talk if the other fella's in another sch. :( i can't wait for the darn A levels to be over so that we can go out and play! :) :) i miss the O level mugging days. A level mugging sucks. actually, mugging itself sucks. ah i'm starting to crap. crap. i shall stop. :p

here's sth else that's really inspiring for you to munch on: (from shikz's blog..thks babe!)

"By the time God made woman,

He was into his sixth day of working overtime...

An angel appeared and said,

"Why are you spending so much time on this one?"

And God answered, "Have you seen my spec sheet on her?

She has to be completely washable, but not plastic,

have over 200 movable parts, all replaceable

and able to run on diet coke and leftovers,

have a lap that can hold four children at one time,

have a kiss that can cure anything

from a scraped knee to a broken heart

and she will do everything- with only two hands.

Angel was astounded by the requirements

"Only two hands!? No way!

And that's just on the standard model?

That's too much work for one day.

Wait until tomorrow to finish."

But I won't," God protested.

"I am so close to finishing this creation

that is so close to my own heart.

She already heals herself when she is sick

AND can work 18 hour days."

The angel moved closer and touched the woman.

"But you have made her so soft."

"She is soft," God agreed,

"but I have also made her tough.

You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish."

"Will she be able to think?", asked the angel.

God replied,

"Not only will she be able to think,

she will be able to reason and negotiate."

The angel then noticed something,

and reaching out, touched the woman's cheek.

"Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model.

I told you that you were trying

to put too much into this one."

"That's not a leak,"

God corrected,

"that's a tear!"

"What's the tear for?" the angel asked.

God said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy,

her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love,

her loneliness, her grief and her pride."

The angel was impressed.

"You are a genius, God.

You thought of everything!

Woman is truly amazing."

And she is!

Women have strengths that amaze men.

They bear hardships and they carry burdens,

but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.

They sing when they want to cry.

They cry when they are happy

and laugh when they are nervous.

They fight for what they believe in.

They stand up to injustice.

They don't take "no" for an answer

when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

They cry when their children excel

and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear

about a birth or a wedding.

Their hearts break when a friend dies.

They grieve at the loss of a family member,

yet they are strong when they think

there is no strength left.

They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you

to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman

is what makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.

They have compassion and ideals.

They give moral support to their family and friends.

Women have vital things to say and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH
