This being a Y and E blog, I hope it's okay if I use up a bit of space talking about my bestest group of friends. After all, we probably would not be together had these girls not been as supportive as they were. As the brilliant Spice Girls say, "If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends."  So there.

My bestfriends and I are so different, our lives just took flight in various directions after we graduated from high school. We were never clingy people, so after college, we each pursued what we  (thought we) wanted. No peer pressure, just each one going after their interests/hopes and dreams. One went to nursing school hoping (and still hoping) to work abroad, one took up medical technology with dreams of becoming a doctor, one took up management in the best university in Cebu (biased girl here, what can I say?), another one studied to be an accountant (and is now our ticket to the quickest bank transactions!), another one studied sports science (we ended up as dorm mates in UP), while I went on to major in broadcast communication. Talk about diverse. We all went to different schools, save for me and Erika who both went to UP Diliman - but with courses that are outrageously different, we hardly saw each other even then.
