For Friends...
11:57 AM In my life I've never had the closest of friends. I had a couple of best friends when I was younger, a close friend here or there. In middle school I was in a small class of about 17 kids in which all of the females hated me because I was friends with most of the guys. Then high school I kinda floated around different friend groups. The summer after my senior year I became really close with a girl who is now my best friend {let's call her T [mystery is cool]}.
I first met T through our boyfriends. The guy I started dating my sophomore year of high school was best friends with her boyfriend. We were both sophomores and they were both seniors. Since that time both those boys have gone but we were always sort of friends. Well the summer after our senior year we became SUPER close. I had a baby during my senior year of high school and so wasn't really out of the house much that summer. Well for some reason I invited T over one day and we became close friends VERY quickly. Now it's strange for me to think that we ever weren't friends!
We're both very much homebodies and most of our "wild nights" consist of sitting in my house watching movies and eating pizza or some other sort of delicious crap. She is also a book nerd like me which helps when we go to watch hunger games and rip the movies apart to each other. Yes, we talk during movies, horrific I know. But we just work.
Sure there's times I wanna strangle her, and I'm sure she has those same thoughts about me at times, but I wouldn't trade her for anything.
Last night I went to a concert for her choir. It was long and tedious {especially that first song, good lord I have no clue if it was right or wrong but I don't care to know!}. But I felt good that I was there for her. Her family isn't an artsy one and instead of going to her concert went to a scrimige for her sister. I'm proud that I was there for her, that she had someone out there rooting her on and making faces at her.
I think that's what all friendship is about. Not thinking totally of yourself, but bieng there for the other person. And I'm glad I got to be there for her {even if I was yawning through the whole thing XD}
