My weird set of friends...

 You-Know-Who, This one goes to you😉!

To all those who came here hoping to hear my friends' real name, welp, sorry...

I am just going to say it; My friends are weird.

Of course, every friend thinks of the other to be weird but seriously, my fiends, or friends, are super weird. 

The first time I met my friends was 3 years ago, in school. Yes in school. (I was 11. What do you expect?) It was my first day of school, and I met my first friend Addison on the school bus. The first few rides we made awkward conversions until I learned the fact that she read Harry Potter. We became quick friends after that. What can I say? Books connect people...

I first met Natasha in class. Even though we were best friends, we never really talked much in 6th standard. At that time, my best friends were Addison and Isabel.  Isabel was this cocky girl who was nice to everybody. That was actually, um, a toxic friendship I had with her. She was a bully, to say in the simplest words. 

The first time me and Natasha actually bonded was in 6th grade. The school was starting its drama with who liked who and i, unfortunately, was the middle of one, particularly nasty rumor. ( I hope it was one) Natasha and her best friend at that time, Sally, helped me stand up to those rumors and Isabel. To say Isabel was pissed would be an understatement. Later that year, both Isabel and sally transferred to other places.

So in 7th grade, it was just Natasha, Addison, and me.

Natasha is bossy. I know she is reading this so I will keep the bad-mouthing to a minimum. We became close in 6th grade and made a ton of inside jokes and code words. Heck, we have forgotten half of the code words we made. We are the kind of friends that laugh at no reason for 20 min. Yes, 20 whole freaking minutes. This really happened, am not kidding. And it was on a video call, so just imagine. This lockdown has only made our friendship stronger. We talk every day and chat during our classes. (shh, don't tell) Oh, and have I mentioned that she plays basketball LIKE A PRO?? *wink wink* No really, she plays basketball like a professional. I don't know how exactly, she is tiny, but still. She was the first person i  told about my blog and she is the first person to read it. She proofread my last posts, but I am not gonna let her proofread this one. *Insert Rico's MWAHAHAHAHA here*

Allison is my oldest friend. She is super smart,(okay, so am i) and is basically valedictorian material. But let that fool you. Once you get to know her, she becomes this crazy person with even crazier ideas. She called me a cat for the whole of 5th grade. Just proving how crazy she is. We do make a good team though. In 7th grade, we were paired up to represent our school in IT. Typical right? Putting up the two best students of 7th grade to represent our school. Even though we were friends, we bickered. A LOT. We bickered like an old couple. But in the end, we ended up winning the second prize. This lockdown, communication has been scarce between us. We used to talk a lot in the starting but I guess we both had full schedules. We still talk but, not that much. Its just the occasional hi and hello. 

Now we shall come to Sally. We started bonding in 6th grade, like Natasha. We weren't that close, but still, she was more than a acquaintance. She was a basketball player, like Natasha. They used to be best friends, but that ended when she moved to UAE. (God that sounds like they had a relationship) Sally was very quiet, still is actually. And she sure does know how to make a  situation awkward. Seriously, she radiates awkwardness. 

I don't want to talk about Isabel and therefore I won't.

These aren't the only friends I have. My childhood friend Simon and my mothers friends daughters and sons are there, but then we would be sitting here forever. These are my closest friends. Simon is close too, we hangout in the summer every year when we have our holidays. He is awesome and we have a long history. We haven't talked recently, I couldn't visit my hometown this year, due to our "FAVOURITE" virus, Corona. Stupid, goddamn virus.

Either ways guys, don't stop talking to your friends.. Trust me, if you want to be sane, talk. Trust people. Tell them what you are going through. But learn to listen too. 

Oookay, that last part was too preachy. But still, you can still talk to your best buddies once in a while

Peace,

Sam
