Journal Entry no. 2 - Solidifying Relationships

Okay, journal entry no. 2 is all about me trying to solidify my relationship with my high school best friends.

I have 8 best friends (if you include me, we're 9). We're pretty much the stereotypical but not so stereotypical best friends who has their own group chats, inside jokes, and no pictures. At all. Well, not none at all but we don't have a picture where all of us are in it.

(And having no pictures makes us not so stereotypical)

I'm going to label that as NONE AT ALL since most of our pictures are selfies and not all of us are in there.

Again, I have 8 best friends (3 boys and 5 girls) and we are not going to the same university. We have different dreams and want different schools. And I'm a bit worried but extremely happy that all of us got to go to the school that we want to study at.

I'm worried because of the what ifs. What if I won't be able to see them again and what if we do see each other but the closeness is just not there anymore? Honestly, I believe in us. I know that if we say that we're still going to see each other every week, we will. We're pretty much a family but that doesn't make the doubt go away.

Before I tell more, I'm going to describe my friends (and myself) and probably use a code name for each.

ME.

I want to be a lawyer or an attorney or whatever you want to call the people who defends other people. I want to be that. I want to go to a school where I can get good education about the career that I'm going to pursue.

I'm very confident (that probably contradicts my previous entry) but sometimes I start freaking out because things are starting to overwhelm me (explains my previous entry).

I'm very blunt, vulgar, and straightforward. I don't like it when people cry in front of me because I find crying very awkward. I'm the kind of person who doesn't cry in front of anyone else and I've never been in love. The closest thing I've ever felt to that was infatuation.

I like to tell people that I cried for a guy because he's my first love but I know that's just bullshit.

THE CHEERLEADER.

Actually, she's not a cheerleader, she's a gymnast, though she did cheerleading a couple years back. Hm.

This girl wants to be an Accountant and she's going to study here, somewhere in here. If you compute the distance between my school and her school, pretty damned far.

She's your usual girly girl.

THE SPORTY GUY.

He's the cheerleader's boyfriend. His school is pretty close to mine. He's the peacemaker and probably the scariest person I've ever met. He's the hulk when he's angry.

THE BEST OF THE BEST.

This girl is my ultimate BFF though we don't use the term BFF because we find it weird and it sounds very clingy. She's pretty much like me, also the kind of girl who doesn't give two shits about what people think of her. That's probably one of the reasons why we click.

Her school is also close to mine.

THE SPORTY GUY AND THE BEST OF THE BEST want to do the same thing. They both want to be an Engineer - a Civil Engineer. They won't go to the same school, though. It just so happens that both of their schools are close to mine.

THE PANDA LOVER.

You could call this girl the man hater but that was until she met or better yet, finally had the chance to get to know my guy best friend.

This girl wants to be an Industrial Engineer. Her school is far from mine but not as a far as the cheerleader's school but anyways, she's a strong girl.

THE MAN.

Yup, I'm going to call this guy the man but not because he's the man but because he's like Christian Grey. You can practically see and feel dominance radiating off this guy. He's not a control freak, though. He's the happy go lucky and easy Christian Grey kind of guy.

He also wants to be an accountant and he's also going to study somewhere in here.

THE SMARTY PANTS.

This girl is very smart. She wants to be a doctor and she's pretty much going into a prestigious school.

She's very humble, compassionate, and sometimes devious. She's like 5SOS's Good Girl are Bad Girls. She's that.

THE MORENA.

Flight Attendant, that's what she wants to be. Her school is very close to THE BEST OF THE BEST'S and to THE SMARTY PANTS.

She adapts very quickly and is really friendly and nice. She's a tough girl but at the same time, she isn't. If that even make sense.

THE MISUNDERSTOOD.

He's my guy best friend and is definitely misunderstood. People think that he's a fucking man-whore. He flirts . A LOT. But that's just because the girl he liked didn't like him back but the girl kept on stringing him on. He was fucking in love with the girl!

Nope, that girl wasn't THE PANDA LOVER. Eventually he moved on and got to know THE PANDA LOVER. He changed for her.

He also wants to be a doctor and he's school is very far from mine.

Solidifying Relationships.

Why is it called solidifying relationships? Because - like I said earlier - I'm having doubts.

THE SPORTY GUY gave each of us a letter which practically says that he wants to focus on his studies and that it means we won't be seeing him.

THE MORENA is the kind of girl who tends to change stuff. She's the kind of girl who leaves stuff behind. New life. New school. New things. New place. Which means New friends.

-

I want to focus on them because I feel like I won't be able to see them again when school starts. The rest are easy to find but these two people won't be. So yeah, solidifying relationships.

This is journal entry no. 2. Thank you for reading, if you did. Hahaha!
