"But I'll be there for you when the rain starts to pour,
I'll be there for you like I've been there before,
I'll be there for you 'cause you're there for me too."
- I'll Be There For You, Friends (TV Series) Theme Song

Cruising along life in an 1987 Corvette didn't deaden the senses, it uplifted them. The cooling night breezes were refreshing, but Jim knew he needed more than a polished car and a long straight Californian road. He needed someone to talk to, someone he could rely on, someone different from him who could compliment him and back him up in a fight, someone to take over the wheel when he needed rest. This someone need not be perfect, this someone could, no, must have some fatal flaw, just as everyone has some fatal flaw.

Jim didn't need a wife, a house or a dog. Jim needed a friend.

I would like to think that I've many friends and so would anyone else, but think about it. If you could choose only 1 person to spend a whole year with, who would it be?

To be frank and honest, I wouldn't know either.

However, all the friends I list below would certain make it into the final considerations:

1. Kieran
He is a very nice guy. There's not much I can really say about him, but he's there. He can take jokes and he can make them. He's human and that's what keeps him as my friend.

2. Vigknaraja
He has always given me advice when I needed it the most. He's always been there to pull me out of difficult situations. We've been friends for many years now and due to our similar interests, we've stuck together. Somehow, we've managed to drag ourselves through life.

3. Wai Jun

What can I say about him? He knows things that I don't and for that I respect him. There are few on this Earth I truly, deeply respect; Wai Jun is one of them. Not only that, but he is cute, with all due respect, in a hamster-ish way...

I don't mean to sound like a smart-ass, but I've found that friends are one of the things that people truly overlook. We seem to think that we can do without them but in reality we would feel an emptiness without them. They fill a part of us that we can't even reach.

Sometime during my life, I've made this comment: "I live for my friends." I still believe that today.

To my readers: If you've felt that you've been neglecting your friends for some time, pick up your phone and just send them a simple message that you've missed them.

To all my friends: If you ever need help, do not hesitate to call upon me. I shall answer.

Have a great evening.
