MeWhatever anyone says, the best years of my life was when I was in college. There I met real people, real friends and they're all my friends till now.
I met my best friends too in college -- Anna and Weng.
At one point, our little clique grew to five with the addition of Joma and Beeg. Some folks called us the Brady Bunch -- we were always together. We took classes together, cut classes together, laughed and cried together.
Then something happened...
And we found ourselves back to three again.
Fast forward years later and "the power of three" remained strong. Even during times that we didn't see each other nor talk to each other because we were all busy with work and our individual lives, our friendship remained. And when we found each other again, it was like we just saw each other yesterday.
Fast forward a few more years, the clique once again grew. This time to nine. There were Sam, Jon, James, Rogel and Ryan plus us three. Just like before, we were always together for dinner, coffee, drinking sprees, out of town gigs, whatever. It was fun while it lasted. But as they say,
"Friendship has a way of ending. No matter how good it is, it always has its time." Not that our friendship has really ended. But y'know, it's just different now.
Then Sir Chris and Nathan came, then Ricio, then Mikko, Mona and Allen. But everytime, it has always been three -- Anna, Weng and me.
But Anna has left the coop. And now, Ricio is leaving too.
Once again, there are only three... but this time it's Sam, Weng and me.
And when the time comes that Sam and Weng decide to migrate after they get married, there will only be me.
