I.

Am.

So.

Fucking.

SAD.

Today Hanif and I trooped down to the Concierge at Raffles City to book tickets for the Coldplay concert. Alas, all seats were SOLD OUT. Tickets were only available for the free standing area (which in our opinion is too havoc) and so we were forced to leave empty handed.

I am so fucking disappointed. To think that I was so looking forward to the concert!

That aside though, I was glad I got to meet up with Hanif and Gary today. We watched X3, and had a 3 hour dinner at Seoul Garden, and slacked at the Esplanade. Its hard to believe that I've known these two guys for eight years now. They're the kind of people I could easily talk to about my problems. And there are few people I talk to about my problems in the first place. I don't trust people so easily now, after all that I've been through in the past year and a half. What I've learnt is that true friendship is one that survives the test of time. I value these friends of mine who've stuck by me for nearly half of my life.

To be frank, I'm not the kind of person who takes pride in having extensive contacts and a wide and active social circle. Fact is, I have a small social circle and an even smaller number of contacts. I can count with my two hands the number of close friends I have, but I know these are the poeple I can rely on. These are the people who are still going to be my friends ten years down the road.

And I'm just thankful I have these people to turn to. Fuck friendster, and posers, and all that acquaintance shit.
