I have the goofiest, craziest friends in the world. The kind who make you laugh until your stomach hurts. I have friends who just make me laugh to cheer me up without asking about what's wrong. They understand that sometimes, I don't need to talk about it. I have friends who listen to me patiently, share my sorrow so I feel lighter. And there's that friend who would do ANYTHING at all to cheer me up- whether it's dressing up as a clown in front of everyone in the school. That friend who figures out that something's wrong within a minute and keeps asking me until I tell him.

Yo, F, listen man... I know sometimes I'm a bitch to you. I got so caught up in my boyfriend that I forgot about you. I grew distant and only talked to you when I had a problem and needed you to cheer me up. I know I've been a heartless, disgusting friend to you, but I swear that I love you. You are like a brother to be. You're practically family. I can't see you upset, to be perfectly honest. I look at you in school and like it when you're laughing. When you have a sad look on your face, I just have this urge to hug you and say that everything's going to be okay. When your other friends treat you like crap, I feel like kicking their asses because how can anyone treat someone as sweet and pure as you like garbage? We have such crazy moments. xD Making fun of our teachers all day on MSN, and sneaking into class when the teacher's not looking. Writing rap together and arguing, "No, mine is better." It's rare that a boy and a girl can be this close and be just friends and nothing else. You're really special to me. When I'm upset, you don't take a second to hesitate in asking me what's wrong. I find it pretty amazing that you can tell how I'm upset by my "Hello." And you'd do anything to cheer me up. You spend hours and hours and hours and you don't give up until you are SURE that there is a smile on my face. I love you for being there for me when no one else was. You really are one of a kind. And trust me, if someone doesn't see that- to hell with them. You're amazing.

S, you've been my friend for almost six years now. When I moved here, you were the first girl who was genuinely nice to me. And since then, we've hardly ever had a fight with each other. We get along so well... you know everything about me, and I know almost everything about you. We can share anything with each other without being shy. You are there for me when I'm upset and broken. You give me sisterly advice and try to make things right... we laugh with each other all the time. It seems like you really understand me. You're never selfish or greedy, to be honest... you're always there to listen to me. Always there to share my sorrows. I don't think I've ever mentioned it before, but... you're one of the most important people in my life. :)

Q, sometimes you're a bitch, but I love you. You care more about looks than studies and anything else, and sometimes you can be shallow but you are one of the most compassionate, sincere and loving people I know. You make jokes about everything. When I'm feeling upset, you make fun of the other person so I smile. When you get angry at me, you walk away and when I crack a joke, you can't help but smile. We hug and make up within two minutes! On the outside, our friendship might not look close and ever-lasting, but inside, both of us know that we love the other. :)

I don't know what I'd do without you guys. You make life fun and interesting. You bring out the true colors of me. :)
