There are friends, there is family and then there are friends that become family.

A pleasant day everyone!
Yesterday, we celebrated the International Friendship Day. Honestly, I have no idea about that. Not until my friend @Janz mentioned me in her article. ( Thank you for the mentioned madam. So, I decided to write about my friends as my way of showing my gratitude to them.
Friendship plays vital role in our life. They are the brothers and sisters that we don't have. I believe that our friends are blessings from above. With them, we can share things that we can't share to our family. We can also express ourselves of what we are if are with them. Sometimes we even open to our friends than to our family. Our friends are the ones who accepted us without judgement. We may have different kinds of friends, but whatever their label, one thing is for sure, we considered them as FRIENDS.
Today, I will share to you my different circle of friends.
College Friends
Obviously, they are my friends when I was in college. They are the ones who helped me overcome my endeavor in college. We all know that college life is not easy. We always need someone whom we can share our daily struggles. I feel so blessed that I met them. Maybe without their help and encouragement, I cannot finished my baccalaureate degree. I'm very thankful that God gave me a circle of friends that I can lean on during my hard battle in college life. We may have different paths now because some were already married while others have their jobs in other places, but they are still in my heart. I'll be forever grateful that they became part of my life.
Cousin Friends
This circle of friends are my stress reliever when I'm at home. We are all cousins but we treated each other like siblings. When one of us has problem, we automatically helped each other. Just like when my cousin Ann needed to make a music video for her project in one of her subjects. We, her cousins, came to the rescue. Some of our cousins acted as her back up dancers while others as videographer. That was a very fun experience to us. This circle of friends of mine is always fun to be with. Though sometimes, the boys are overprotective. If we visit other places, no one could come to us girls because we always have bodyguards. That's why my parents will not worry if I'm with them. Also, if one of us have a baby, we automatically become the godparents of the child.😁
High School friends
Maybe all of us has great memories during our high school days. High school life is one of the stages of our life that is unforgettable. We had many exciting memories during this days. Mostly, this is when we experienced our first heartbreak, our first crush and other unforgettable memories. My high school friends are very dear to me. Every year, we always have get-together. We love catching up each other's lives. We also created group chats so we can keep in touch. What I love about my high school friends is they always visit me every time they vacationed in our place. Most of my high school friends went to different places to find their future. I am the only one who stuck in our place. They always remember me. I was the Cinderella in our group. Every time we have gatherings, they always fetched me in our house and there's always be one that will get me home.
CLOSING NOTE
Friends are special gift to us. We should cherish them for they are the ones who made our life more colorful and enjoyable. Memories with our friends is like a treasure that stays forever in heart and in our mind. We should be grateful that we have friends around us.
