Idea of a Good Friend --------------------- 1. In kindergarten, your idea of a good friend was the person who let you have the red crayon when all that was left was the ugly black one. 2. In primary one, your idea of a good friend was the person who went to the bathroom with you and held your hand as you walked through the scary halls. 3. In primary two, your idea of a good friend was the person who helped you stand up to the class bully. 4. In primary three, your idea of a good friend was the person who shared their lunch with you when you forgot to bring money. 5. In primary four, your idea of a good friend was the person who was willing to switch seats with you so that you can sit with your 'cute' botak guy or witch hairstyle 'adorable' gal and not to be sitting with John who had BO or Susan who had a smelly butt. 6. In primary five, your idea of a friend was the person who get all worried when you cut yourself and finds you a handi-plast. 7. In primary six, your idea of a friend was the person who went up to Nick or Susan, your new crush, and asked them to dance with you, so that if they said no you wouldn't have to be embarrassed. 8. In secondary one, your idea of a friend was the person who let you copy the stupid Geography homework. 9. In secondary two, your idea of good friend was the person who gives you the telephone number of the money-look-a-like guy or gal even though she or he like the person themselves. (just so sweet..... totally no jealously but pure love and friendship) 10. In secondary three, your idea of a good friend was the person who went with you to that "cool" party thrown by a senior so that you wouldn't mind up being the only junior there. 11. In secondary four, your idea of a good friend was the person who changed their time-table so you would have someone to sit with at lunch. (U just know the bonding between your are so special that your enjoy being with each other even though there is no topic to talk about as you just talk to each other on the phone for 6 hours last night.) 12. While waiting for your O's level result..... your idea of a good friend was the person who helped you pick out a school, assured you that you would get into that school, helped you deal with your parents who were having a hard time adjusting to the idea of letting you go... 13. At graduation, your idea of a good friend was the person who was crying on the inside but managed the biggest smile one could give as they congratulated you. 14. In your first year of school after secondary four, your idea of a good friend was the person who gave you rides in their boyfriend's car or a girlfriend that is older than he is, convinced your parents that you shouldn't be grounded, consoled you when you broke up with Nick or Susan, and found you a date to the prom. 15. During any holidays, your idea of a good friend was the person who helped you clean up the bottles from that party, helped you sneak out of the house when you just couldn't deal with your parents, assured you that now that you and Nick or you and Susan were back together, you could make it through anything, helped you pack up for college and just silently hugged you as you looked through blurry eyes at 17 years of memories you were leaving behind, and finally on those last days of childhood, went out of their way to come over an send you off with a hug, a lot of memories, reassurance that you would make it in college as well as you had these past 17 years, and most importantly sent you off to college knowing you were loved. 16. Now, your idea of a good friend is still the person who gives you the BETTER of the two choices, hold your hand when you're scared,helps you fight off those who try to take advantage of you, thinks of you at times when you are not there, reminds you of what you have forgotten, helps you put the past behind you but understands when you need to hold on to it a little longer, stays with you so that you have confidence, goes out of their way to make time for you, helps you clear up your mistakes, helps you deal with pressure from others, smiles for you when they are sad, helps you become a better person, and most importantly loves you! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A good friend is someone that can do just so much for you... they can be physically there or even thousands km away or even in the other world..........just knowing U have this special someone as a friend is enough to warmth your heart each time U feel depressed. The special bonding between TRUE FRIENDSHIP is just as wonderful as TRUE LOVE. Treasure all the relationships U have people........ Appreciate all the little things in life and treasure the sweet memories you have gained from those who loved and care about you..... A friend is someone who explored the inner chamber of your heart... decorated it and brought life and warmth into the chamber to make it like home......and created a new realm within the chamber where he or she will stay forever in that special chamber in your heart.......... People say friends come and go.....I never agree to this because I believe if we make the effort to maintain the relationship....friends, come, and stay for life.....
