Best Friends

Hello, guys, how are you? Ah~ it's been a long time. I still have my holiday, and I'll enter my university on September. So it means I'll leave my hometown for about 1 month later. It makes me so nervous, because I'll live alone >_<


Ah, right now, I'm gonna write about friendship (again). Well, as the time goes by, I finally become more and more mature and understanding what is the best for me, and what is the worst. So does with people—friends.

We all know that the best people around us is our family—parents, sister, cousins... They are the best. They are always there when I need them the most—when the world ignores me. But then, we're back to our definition of human being—which is each human can't live without each other. Every humans need help from the others. So, that means that we—I—need to socialize outside.

I'm not that kind of people who get friends easily. I'm so shy, I don't talk much. Outside I'll be just like such a careless—mean girl. But inside, I actually watch; see everything. I know about A's gossips, I know about B's problems, but, I prefer to keep it by myself. 




Sometimes I think that I'm such an anti-social, but then, those people just come into my life. Yes, those crazy people. Those people who changed my whole life just in a second. Those people who just come for all of sudden—strangers who just come and stay beside me—and I realize that it would be so strange without them around me.

Yes, those people who just come and share so many things with you. Those people who love you no matter how strange and weird you are. Those people who always stay beside you no matter how tough the condition is. When you're hurt, their presence is just like your drug. Only seeing their face, only hearing their laugh, you can just forget your problem easily. 

Isn't it strange?

. . . . .

You know, when I wrote this article, I was smiling by myself like an idiot. Sometimes we might think just like, "Is the friendship like in the movies, cartoon, and anime really exist?"

I'm not sure about that, but, just see around you. How blessed you are with those nice people who always make you smile, make you laugh...


But, you know what? A perfect friendship is not easy to make. There are so many challenges—such as bad rumours about you, bad gossips about them, or even the conflict between you and them. 

A perfect friendship is born when those things come, but yet, you guys just come back—apologize—cheering each other—because you know that you can't live without them, and you can't leave them that way.

How we react, how we take action, how we talk about those conflicts, is how we will make our friendship be. If you just talk in such a childish way, you become egoist, arrogant, all you will get is a bad feedback from your best friends. Do you want something like that?

Of course no, obviously.

I'm so lucky that I have so many good friends. I have a best friend, ever since me and her in the 5th grade of elementary school. If I think again, me and her—her name is Nuge, we're always in the same school, even in the same departement when we're in the high school. 

me and my best friend—Nuge ><

Both of us have the same interest—just like multimedia, music, language / literature, even anime! I don't know since when we have so much similarities. It's so fun. Both of us also in the same middle high school, but our class were seperated. I also have had a conflict with her, but then, we're getting back again—until now. 

We used to spend time together, such as I come to her house, she come to my house, talking about anime, AKB48, school, dreams.....everything! I'm so blessed to have such a friend like her. 大好き !!!! xD

from left to right: me, April, Lia, and Dewi :)

And now, is my best friends since I was in the middle school. Actually there are 5 people, but I haven't met Ai lately, so we couldn;t take picture for 5 :( I love them so much. It's always fun and calming for sharing with them. Five of us have different personalities. We ever had fight, but, again, it didn't take a long time for us for caring each other. We're back, and spent so much time together.

I remember when 5 of us—sat together under the school's tree, crying of each other, because we're gonna graduate. It's so.....heart breaking. 5 of us were crying—and then laughing. I'm gonna miss them so much, April, Lia, Ai, and Dewi. They are my angels. I love them so much! :') Ah, anyway, 5 of us are called 'Tomodachi', which means 'Best Friends'. 

Vivi and me :)

I thought high school year would be sucks, because I didn't think that I could find best friends like my Tomodachi in the middle school. I was hard to socialize with others on the first day of school. But then, I found her, my deskmate, since I was in the 10th grade until we graduate. She has different personality from me, but then, we just got along together. Spent the school-days together, hanged out together, laughing together, even made fun of people together. Vivi herself is such a great moodbuster for me. When I had problem, I could easily forget it as soon as I meet her xD 


We have so many twin stuffs—just like pencil case, keychains, pins, pens, etc. She also always supports me, until now. I'm gonna miss her very much—my deskmate until the very very end. :')

me and Reni :)

Not only Vivi, I also have another best friends, she called by Reni—but I used to call her with "Eng!" xD. Different from Vivi, Reni has more similarity with me. An anime freak, a hardcore(?) fujoushi, good on drawing, and love to join competitions. Me and Reni were never in the same team whenever there's competition. We always became rival. But, I have to say that I never win against her, I'm always on the runner up position, meanwhile, she's always on above me. 

But then, it doesn't matter. We spent so much time together—three of us: Me, Vivi, and Reni. We talked so many stuffs: school, dreams, boys, and even talking about government! It's so fun, and always makes me smile whenever remembering about our conversations. xD

. . . . .

So, that's it. They are my great friends, super friends, super super best friends in the earth! I don't say that I have a perfect friendship, but, I guess, it's perfect for me. And for you guys, you have to remember that good friends, they never take anything from you—they just love you no matter how you are. They love you sincerely—without taking any profits from you. 

I have some words in Indonesian, it's my mom's quote:

"Sahabat itu menyayangi kita dengan tulus. Bertengkar? Memang pernah. Pasti pernah. Tapi dari sana lah persahabatan kalian diuji. Kalau kalian benar-benar saling sayang, tiba-tiba saja kalian berbaikan lagi, tertawa lagi. Kalau kita tulus menyayangi mereka, feedback yang kita dapat juga akan baik,"

So, that's it. If you curious about the meaning, just use Google Translate, or ask me :P hihihi~~
Okay, that's all. I hope what I wrote here is useful for you guys. Always love your friends! And for my best friends, I'll miss you so much T^T I'll leave Surabaya soon. And to my cyber/internet friends, I also love you so much!!! I hope we will always keep in touch!
