My best friend

I was reading old messages... I do this whenever I'm bored really, it's good fun.

But I was thinking. basically, I am very very lucky. My life is pretty great, I'm pretty happy with everything I'm doing, i have fun every day, my family is good, not perfect but good and I have amazing friends.

I don't have friends that backstab or bitch about me much behind my back or that I don't trust or that don't keep my secrets or that make me feel bad about myself or that make me insecure. I never really have. I've realised that I've like, barely ever had a fight with another girl. Like, that lasted more than 24 hours. Only one instance I can think of where I feuded with a friend of mine. Otherwise, I've always maintained pretty solid friendships and haven't really let any of them go or drift away, My friendship group evolves but it doesn't really lose people. My female support group is pretty huge actually. All my friends I became close to in Year 7 have never gone away, I'm still just as close to them as ever. It's a blessing really.

I mean, in primary school, I said adios and never missed any of them once, even though it wasn't until Uni that I've started to see them again. Apart from my best friend Mimi, who I do still miss and care for, my strong friendships are all from high school and I plan on keeping them through Uni.

I guess I just wanted to write this post to acknowledge the unsung heroes in my life, since I keep this blog pretty guy-centric.

But who is it that holds my hand through all this boy trouble and forces me to get my shit together when it all falls to bits? It's the girls. My best friend is actually pretty amazing. She doesn't need to hear it cos her head is too big already but I was just reading old conversations and thinking about the way you-know-who bitches about her and I think, well, without her, my summer would probably have been pretty awful. Not only did  she make me ditch him, which was the right decision, I see that now, but she definitely made me do things and get out and even if she is a bossy boots I'd be pretty fucked without her.

Honorable mention in the girls-that-make-me-a-ton-better-and-that-i'd-have-failed-life-without category is my cuz, Lizzzzyyyyyy. One of my best friends since forever, where would I be without her advice?  I don't even.
