Distress Call

What a week it was for me. I came in to work on the first and last day of the working week. Where was I on the middle days?

I was home, trying to recover from a sickness I thought I'd die with. It was the first time I had encountered something like that. Me getting sick with a simple stomacheache which turns out to be acid eagerly bursting out of my system. I went to the doctor a days worth of anal and oral emission of particles from my body. The doctor said it may be because of ecolai or amoebiasis but since I was pretty sure what i took inside my body prior this situation were safe, the doctor thought it might be because of stress.

Whoa! Stress causing hyperacids forming in the lining of the stomach leading to LBM and nausea? This is something new. And after the lab test, it was confirm that it was acid not bacteria that cause my sickness. And as for the stress? It was also confirm when i had my girl thing just barely two weeks after i had my last cycle.

But what is more stressful is the cost of medicine to make you well... hahaha... i guess it will make me sicker to think of the cost of getting cured.

A friend

As usual, during the weekend, you'll hear me singing my lungs out to tunes i can barely reach the tone. Hahaha! Nevermind the frowns i get from my family, neither do i mind what our neighbors will say when they hear me sing.

But anyway, there was this song that struck me most:

I'm still been searching and long have I waited

for someone to like me as me

To love with; to cry with; to be just beside with

A friend, that who i need

We all need someone whom you can be comfortable with. Someone whom you can bear your heart out. Someone whom you can share your joys, your pain.

To fight with, make up with

To know that you need them

Believing that they need you too

To walk hand in hand with

To argue, To talk with

A friend that's who i need

Sometimes, we end up arguing with our friends but at the end of the day, you still remain friends. And your need for each other is because you both love each other.

And even though

I make mistakes

And never do anything right

A smile, a hug can change all that

And everything will be alright

When your at your lowest, a shoulder to cry on is the best a friend can ever give. A squeeze of assurance from someone who believes in you means a lot to boost your confidence and morale.

Someone who shares all my dreams and ambition

For someone to like me as me

I need this person

Someone to rely on

A friend that's who I need

Why do two people become close friends? For they share common interests, they may not have the same priorities but they share and encourage each other to reach their dreams.


While I was singing this song, I came to realize the saying that the best relationship starts with being friends. It's a perfect set-up. Both of you will know each other without pretensions. You accept each other's flaws and imperfections. You both are comfortable in each other's skin.

Being in a relationship of being more than friends, we tend to forget the feeling of being friends with each other because of the intimacy. That is why some relationship that didnt start as friends doesnt last.

Sad to say, that sometimes only one falls for the other. It would have been better if both feels the same way. But when both does, they are afraid to ruin the friendship. Foolish thoughts! Now, I know why i had fallen... What i really need was a FRIEND.
