i thought that all i needed in life were my friends from college... they were my rock, the reason for my being happy... we weren't a big group, mind you. just five girls enjoying each others' company (granted we would want to kill each other at some point, but still). that's why when i entered med school without my friend, i was terrified as hell.
the first day was the worst.. not knowing anyone, and not wanting to know anyone.
i wanted to transfer to feu right away and be with my friend, however, mother insisted i go to uerm (i wanted to throw a tantrum but that would have the exact opposite). Anyway, i tried to talk to people but at the back of my mind i had already told myself there's no way in hell i'd be friends with any of these people. whenever my friends would ask me if i'd made any new friends i'd always tell them "i have acquaintances, is that not enough?" or something like "oh, i have pseudo-friends". However, i met a lot of good natured people. granted that most of them are sitting next to me, i still like them.
i'm still adjusting to their personalities, trying to see where's their boiling point and how far i could push them (and how far i could tolerate their constant teasing, since i'm always on the hot-seat, please find someone else!). i do believe they're people i could hopefully one day say are my true friends, and i hope they'll say the same about me.
it's a great feeling, making new friends.
and i'm glad the new friends i made are decent, fun-loving, sincere people.
oh, well... they say when life gives you lemons you make a lemonade...
i was certainly out of my comfort zone, but now a have a new set of friends, and i feel like my world is only getting bigger...
life certainly is what you make it out to be.
until next time bloggers...
