today im going to talk about *eh hem.. drum roll please.. drrrrrrr..drrrrrrrrrmmmMMM* something other than myself.. well after this den we talk about me, me and me until you guys get sick of me..

anyway..
i want to talk about friendship. the most essential, most needed, most sought for in a the life of a typical secondary school teenager.. do i have the right to conclude that? well, majority would agree with me but for the rest of you whom are loners, im going to talk about you in just a little bit.. and so, friendship.. im a typical teenager right?

[how come everything i say revolves around me?? fine, i will try using another example.. btw, am i that conceit? be honest.]

so here we go again.. a teeneger, lets say a girl name sarah

[hey wait a minute, isnt that me again?! maisarah! cut it out!]

ouhk.. a girl called S.. she has friends, lots of them but now lets focus on two of them.. two of her very, very close buddies.. they've been through numerous ups and downs of life and still manage to stick together.. they have their fair shair of fights, misunderstandings, boy-trouble, bitching, change of best friends and they can still manage to hang out together, have girls day out at any time and when they do, there was no awkwardness, no defensiveness which usually occur if you're not comfortable being in one's company, no worries, just plain old bitching and talking like they used to do.. S is not very good at comforting people so she tries to make them laugh instead.. most of the times she succeeded, fortunately.. but today, she realizes something..

she has been in her own little world lately and failed to notice the growing tension between her best friends until one faithful day, today, one of them poured her heart to her.. she somehow knew that a conflict such as this would happen but she did not knew to what extent.. some people might say that the truth is rotten.. in actual fact the truth is somewhat like medicine.. it upsets people at first but cures them in the longrun because truth is not like revenge.. when the truth gets out, people should not ponder on how it had happen but think about what to do next.. they find solutions to their problems and then they all live happily ever after.. revenge is something that is kept bottled up in one's soul.. the angry will build up as time passes by and if the person does not eventually blows up, he or she goes to a psychiatrist and end up paying lots of money on something that at the end of 2 hours only offers you a cup of tea and excruciatingly irritating 'i understands' or 'tell me how you feels'.. evidently the truth is the best.. but i digress.. moving on..

so now the truth is out.. the other best friend, lets call her XYZ, had hurt this best friend's feeling by being ignorant.. and before i sound like Q&A Life in this month's CLEO magazine, i better get to my point.. you might me asking 'so she hurt her feelings.. big deal.. just apologize and stop talking about it already'.. this ignorance has been going on for months.. my solution to this problem is an intervention.. it is long overdue and if this continues, she would not realise that what she is doing hurts the people around her.. and i beg to differ with the statement that ignorance is bliss.. ignorance can destroy relationships.. relationships these people are going to regret not mending looking back after a decade or two.. i plead to these two people to talk it out.. i want them to realize the hurt the other has caused.. i want them to make up and be best friends again.. not adversaries.. but will my wish be fulfill? we shall see..
