Hola Amigos!

We all have friends at school and life seems a bore without them (especially if there happen to be boring classes that day). I'm going to here put together a list of three things (although I have real doubt if I'll be able to stop at three) that make friends indispensable to everyone of us.

They know you in and out.
Whether be it guessing your favorite color or decoding what you went through the previous night just by the look on your face, they do it all. They are the first ones to know when you are not mentally present in the class but are rather dreaming about whatever interests you. Also, when you walk in wearing the brightest smile they instantly know there is some trouble and before you know it you are down to every little detail of what put you off.

Give you Funny and Weird names.
Admit it, we all have had our share of silly and amusing pet names given to us by our friends. Be it borrowing little of other people's (usually sport stars, film stars, or just any other famous person) names or be it creating a completely indigenous name which showcase their creative and your strange abilities they don't shy away(sometimes sadly so :P ).

First ones to Swoop Down on your tiffin box when you bring something scrumptious
Usually the sight of your lunch box does not attract any spark of excitement when you bring something mundane and not very luscious. But the day you have something scrumptious, you won't even know realize before it is already en route your friends' stomach. You feel like you could possibly show this trick at a magic show which shall be titled "Vanishing Food Acts" and it actually won't be a miss!

There! I've compiled three of them and my fingers are already itching to write type more. but. I'm going to try and stop myself (talk of self control :P )

Bucket List: #Birthday

Since my birthday is coming up, I decided to make a list of all the experience  I would like to go through on my birthday once in my lifetime (which does not mean this time necessarily).

A surprise birthday party which is Actually a Surprise! Without any Orange cake or Pink curtains.

Singing "Happy Birthday" in another language, something like Spanish and NOT Hindi,with an acoustic Guitar.

A different location, not some a boring hotel or any closed space for that matter- open sky, meadow, beach, woods or any other wacky place!

Well-thought-of birthday cards with personalized messages.

Some crazy fun games to get through the day which are needless to say, not organized by me. :P

Scrumptious cute-shaped and cute-looking food which does belonging to different cuisines.

Specially customized play-list with great songs and tunes. 

Chance to meet Roger Federer  or Siddharth Malhotra. :P

Most importantly, great companions to get through the day!

Notes and a Good Friend

A little while back I had a different kind of experience with one of my good friends. It was different not in the sense that it was something out-of-the-world sort of but it was different in the sense that it was totally unexpected and it kinda moved the ground beneath my feet. The Friend whom i thought to be a real, good, genuine friend lied, lied and lied to me just so that i wouldn't get the notes to study and complete before our examinations begun. I could have never possibly thought of the idea myself, it's so umm... Cheap! It left me shaken for a while to even believe that what happened was true! I mean the last thing I would expect from a good friend rather Any Friend was surely not this.

So how does this thing work? I score better than you so you try and score more than me by hurting me and depriving me of crucial information sometime before the examination? I don't really think that is Success or even Competition in the right terms, it's Deceit. If you really want to beat me at anything the only way you can is by improving yourself. What about the friendship? All that was all fake too? When I trsut someone, I trust with no limitations or discrimination, but when they break it, I love myself enough to let go of people I don't need.

This incident set me thinking, how could anyone possibly be sure of who the real person behind the Garb of Goodness was? Was it like everyone lived in these garbs and so didn't take a long time figuring out how the garb-thing operates? Or was I too blind to see the evident signs that lay before me to which I did not pay attention? Well, I don't know.

The one thing I can say surely is that I'm definitely going to be more careful about my friends. We don't really get to choose our parents or relatives or even neighbors, but then there are friends whom you can choose and treasure for the rest of your life. Well yes, everyone errs but what makes it a mistake is the refusal to correct it. I do have some awesome friends who can light up the entire city with just their silly jokes (and they have 'never' been cheap). Old is gold, right? I'm not certain how I'm going to trust new people or maybe it's just better that I don't! Thanks  my ex-good friend!
After all people might take away the notes again. ;)
