Let's pretend you like grilled chicken. I mean, who doesn't like grilled chicken? Unless you are a vegetarian, everyone loves grilled chicken. But for the purpose of this blog, we are going to pretend that no matter what, you love grilled chicken. The juicyness and the tenderness of the chicken combined with that smoky grilled flavor. The seasoning just perfect so it does not interfere with the chicken flavor. Oh that grilled chicken you have for lunch every day. You love it so much that every time you eat it, its like you are trying it for the first time. You cannot ever wait to eat your grilled chicken because of how perfect it is and no matter what, you will never be saitisfied of your lovely grilled chicken. I mean, you can eat it with a salad, or on a sandwich or over pilaf, you name it, it goes perfectly with your grilled chicken. Plus the calorie intake is not too guilty. Who does not love grilled chicken. It makes lunch so predictable and easy. You know what you are going to have because you love it so much.
One day, you run out of grilled chicken and all you have is steak. Your lunch just got a makeover.
That's what I think right now of my friendships. You see reader, I love all my friends. I have my friends, then my good friends, my close friends and my "best" friends. They each have a purpose and a place in my life. All of them know enough about me but nothing at the same time. It balances out so that no one has any good backup for backstabbing. All my friends are fun to be with and they all make me feel different. I can be 100% me or 75% me. Its all perfect friend-wise in my existance right now. I would hope that if I died one day, they would know what to make of me.
Let's just reminess a little on the past Sunday. Not only was it amazing, it was super fullfilling. This is how it pretty much went: After waking up super early to study, I took a nice steamy shower and got ready to go on service. Only too bad for me because I didn't know that service on Sundays is no longer at 9:45 so I ended up going to give a study with my mom. When we got back, my friend was at my house waiting. Now, this was too bad for the both of us because I ran out of product for my hair so no matter what, it HAD to be straightened. My hair looks amazing straight, so I went through the painful process of putting excessive heat on my hair to make it amazing, plus I had no product. So after a painful one hour of hair and wardrobe, we set off to the last English convention to watch the drama in English. Did I mention that I looked amazing? The next painful thing was finding seats because we got there as soon as the intermission started and every seat was taken apparently...I mean we ate like horses. I used to think that there are creeps all over but now I actually believe it. One of the girls I was with litterally got major creeped on. So embarrassing but I guess that's what happens when you have beautiful hott friends... Once the program started we sang standing up in the hallway waiting to be seated which happened like ten minutes after the drama started. The drama was so realistic in English; it was a little too real actually. Then we had super-amazing-loud-fun at the restaurant.
Let's break it up. We had super fun. Super fun means we made the hang out happen which is not always possible since we all have different lives. Amazing fun means it was different from everything else we do in the sense that we all made it different by being different. Yeah, we were in a big party but everyone was doing the eat-talk thing while we were doing amazing fun. Loud fun litereally means we were the loudest to talk, the loudest to laugh and the loudest to leave. But what made Sunday happen the way it did is that we did not let anything bother us. We had very healthy conversation and bonding. We made plans for Tuesday and we stuck to it. We took very cute pictures and instagramed them. Yes, Sunday was the kind of day that I wish it were every day. Like having grilled chicken everyday until you run out and you have to eat steak.
At that point we went from the restaurant to a hang out. How did we go from a convention to a make-believe party? I don't know. I didn't even realize when we got too crazy, I just sat there and watched the boys dance like idiots. But who cares? We had fun!!!
Friends are like that, you have your friends and they are the best people in your life. They make simple moments the epic highlight of your existance. Sometimes you realize you need something better, and since my life has been no surprise, I think that my friends are what make it worth it. Maybe I need a friend make-over, like hanging out with people MY age. But I won't rush it because I'm having fun trying to find some steak.
