Ive had lots of heart to heart deep and meaningfuls (dnMs as bryan would call themhehe) with some friends lately, and it seems that as time goes by, and distance comes between people, friendships are always lost. It's really quite sad, because throughout primary school, highschool and even uni, most people have the structure of routine and commonplaces to meet up with friends and share moments. However, as time passes, when people leave uni, or start to "specialise" in their studies, most people lose that common place and time to meet up with friends, and often people make less effort to continue their friendships.
I guess ive been lucky that some of my greatest friends have always made efforts to come contact me, even when i havent always been the most reachable (ie. mobile phone dramas, transport etc etc), and there's something about certain friendships that make you perservere no matter how hard , because you know that there is a bond between you :)
i know also that i havent always made the greatest effort.. i sort of just hope others will do it.. but having had some really insightful dnMs about friendships recently, i realized that it is something that both parties need to do - just like in any romantic relationships, you both need to put the effort into keeping up with each other and growing.
So thanks to those that have recently reached out to me, whom I havent really "hungout" with lately mainly due to the work/uni divide, and thanks so much for all your efforts in keeping our friendship going :) Thanks to the pesters of "kae.. hurry up and get msn!" hehe , and "kae.. i havent seen you for ages, here's an email instead" .. and "kae.. call me backk.. grrr"..
Thanks for your perserverance, your efforts and your friendships :) *mwah*
