Today I met one of my school friends after so long!

Today, I woke from my bed at around 10:00 and went to sleep in my parents to sleep for 2 more hours. I honestly couldn't get myself to wake up and wouldn't have if I wasn't hungry and if my mom didn't force me to.

So I got up, had lunch, saw the last episode of '13 Reasons Why' (which I didn't enjoy) and left for my school friend Mikayla's house.

Now that I realize, the bond that I have with my school friends is the strongest. Wait no, that's not true. Let me rephrase. I haven't made a strong bond with anyone in my new college (except Kristen) as I have with my other friends.

Currently, among my school friends (ie. Mikayla, Mia, Emily, Nova and Marissa), I think I have a different kind of bond with each one of them. We may or may not meet as a group but I can meet them separately and have an absolutely great time!

Among my old college friends, I am mostly only close to Pamela and Venus. Vanessa did call me a few weeks ago but haven't really been in constant touch and our dynamics have changed. Let's see if I'm correct or wrong when (and if) we meet.

Now among my new college friends, as said above, I can only trust Kristen. The others are, as of now, mostly for socializing purposes even though they are good people.

Anyways, I went to Mikayla's house and met her new kitten who was gifted to her by her boyfriend. We played with the kitten for some time. By this I mean Mikayla played while boyfriend and I looked on. Boyfriend and I get along so it wasn't awkward at all. Honestly, today was the least awkward of all my third wheeling sessions with them as they didn't show much PDA as usual. Maybe 3 years of togetherness does that to people.

After putting the cat in her basket, the three of us went to a nearby newly opened cafe. The food there was good! It's close to my house so I might go there again soon. We played Uno, spoke about alcohol, music, pulled each others leg. It genuinely felt good and kind of homely for some reason?

After going back to Mikayla's house, we spent about an hour or two watching this hilarious stand-up comedy show on Netflix by this comedian called Vir Das. It was honestly very hilarious! After that, boyfriend went away because he has his exams going on. Asshole's giving 4 re exams and is still wasting his time. Anyways, after he left, Mikayla and I watched the first episode of Game Of Thrones. She has watched all the seasons and doesn't mind watching it again. I had only watched the first episode, ironically with Mikayla itself, but it was long back and I had forgotten it. Back then I was too scarred but I guess I'm ready to watch it now. Emily is going to be so happy once she learns that I'm finally starting to watch GoT.

We left her house by 7:15, bought a few cold drinks and snacks after which I left for home. After coming back home and eating dinner, I watched a few acts of Britain's Got Talent which I had missed during Finals.

I'm still watching but I'm very sleepy.
