conversation is very important to me. people who can hold meaningful and intelligent conversations rank high on my list of 'must haves' when it comes to friends. i don't want to come off as a needy bitch but that's the way things are. i'm sure ou can sympathize. i have found out that not all people who share a smile are your true friends. i have found out the hard way who my real friends are. i'm glad i did, though. if i hadn't i would probably still be pretending to smile and nod at people whom i don't particularly connect with. a blessing in disguise, i think.

only a few people can relate on this subject matter. i think it's because some people are luckier than others in terms of friendship, among other things. i'm not complaining because i believe that every pothole that one falls into has a secret treasure in it. :)

friends are really special and we all have to treat them well. friendships, no matter how strong, can be 'abolished' with negligence. and sometimes, sometimes, friendships are just not meant to work out.

i'd like to raise a(n imaginary) toast to all my true friends. glad to have you guys in my life.
