Mis Amigas Part 2


Last October, I had an entry (about my very good friends) which I wrote to remind me that I'm not an island in an enormous sea nor a cactus in an immense desert. I mentioned yesterday that a friend and coworker is leaving. So, here, I thought of writing another part about my friends at work.

  • Elles. She's like our big sister in the group. At first, I thought she was a shy person. But, no! This lady is super chatty! She always shares her experiences and opinions about things. I'm really gonna miss her! She's my partner in crime. We do yoga, play badminton, stroll at the mall, go window-shopping in the bazaars, go down and buy food, go out out of the building to do nothing, hang out at the cafeteria, chat in the messenger... Oh my, we almost do all things at work together! It will never be the same without her; but, it's for her own good. I wish her all the best in the world. May she be happy wherever she'll be.
  • Janice. She's the most caring among us. It's maybe because she's already a mother. More often than not, she has whatever I'm looking for. When I don't bring my loose powder, I ask from her. When I need alcohol, she'll give me. She'll also offer food when I'm hungry. Janice's my buddy whenever I want to the cafeteria or the pantry. Obviously, I can tell/ask her almost everything.

  • Cherrieness. She's the girl who always wears a smile. Of course, she came from the City of Smiles. She's the most conservative and the most innocent among us, a child in heart. I actually feel matured whenever we're together. Though, she has had experienced a lot which made committed to everything she chooses.
  • Laraness. She's one of the reasons why I don't believe in the saying that birds of the same feather flock together. Lara and I are totally different kinds of persons. Really. She even told me that we have nothing in common. She's more on the liberated side; I'm more on the conservative one. She's loud; I'm quiet. She's the type who wears mini dresses and skirts; I'm in jeans most of the time. I actually have to write in a day for me to complete our unlikeness. Though, these are small potatoes. What's important is we're able to connect despite those. Lara is actually a sweet friend. She never fails to keep in touch once in a while. (FYI, she was the first one who left.) When she was still here in the office, she used to give us little stuffs. One thing I loved most about her is her ability to say the not so good things right in my face. She's that frank. We were in front each other; so, she could hear everything I told my student. Ha-ha! She always had comments! I hope I can see her soon!
