Friends are so intoxicating

Friends are so intoxicating. They make some people so stuff that they are not aware of. For example, a group of friends will “coax” someone to flash themselves in front of strangers after a few beers. A group of friends will “ensure” that someone will get laid after chatting up some random guy in the bar.

Friends are THAT intoxicating.

Stupid as it seems, I have been intoxicated before. Friends will stay up late and chat, and you will be sucked into this ‘dark matter’ which they call ‘bonding time’ to chat, gossip and hurl (after some really intoxicating alcohol).

But what does that intoxicating feeling do to you?

Is it really an alcohol of some sort? Or is it designer drugs? Are friends the new designer drugs? (Shit. After Sex and The City, I have become Carrie Bradshaw.) The kind of friends that I know of are those who help you to spur to greater heights, those who help and be with you when you are down, those who will come to your rescue everytime you are being dealt with the worst situation. But what does intoxicating friends do to you?

I have a situation here. My friends had a ‘get-together-party’ at their house (which I did not go) and one of my best pals decided to stay after they started playing poker. Now, here comes the tricky part: She decides to go home, but she is now stuck in the middle playing cards with friends. They cannot stop. She is losing RM30. (Yes, they are considered gambling).

I asked her to stay the night, since her house was quite far away.

She said she had things to do in the morning.

Okay….now I don’t see the whole picture.

You are playing cards (gambling, I suppose), and you are losing. It is already 2am. You have things to do in the morning. So what is the problem here?

That’s right folks. INTOXICATING FRIENDS.

I’m not bloody jealous because I’m not there. I’m not angry that they were gambling. I’m very confused as to which people tend to forget everything when they are with friends. What happens if you insist to go home, and you get mugged, raped or *horror* killed????

Would your friends say: “Oh, I’m sorry I asked you to stay until so late. Here, let me take care of you for the rest of your life.”?

Would your friends say: “Sorry it happened. We will pay for the brainwashing process.”

Who would care?!
The most they can do is send you flowers and comfort words. And they let you go on.

Even the government won’t take care of you for the rest of your life.

I’m not saying friends are bad, in case ‘eagle nosy parkers’ start to look at this post and say I’m a ASSHOLE. (Read the whole story, YOU ASSHOLE).

I’m just saying, PLEASE GET A GRIP. You are a grown person. I have no control over you. You should know what is right or wrong. If I was there, I would be considered a party-pooper. But I know when to stop this whole stay up late thing.

Some people live there. Some people don’t. What will happen to those who don’t live there? Stay the night then. But if you have other things to attend to the next day, FOR GOD’S SAKE PLEASE GO HOME EARLY.

I feel so helpless here.

But I can’t do anything. Because I’m a nobody.

I'm Addicted To...Sex And The City

Shit...I love it so much!

Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Charlotte York and Miranda Hobbes have been in my life these past few months, even though the show wrapped up four years ago.

Explicit words and scenes aside, the dialogues and acting are so intriguing that I can't help but fall in love with these four women...


And...


They are back! The latest Sex And The City: The Movie will be in cinemas (presumably not in Malaysia) on 30 May 2008! Can't wait!
