Of Sweets and Friendships ;)

I might need to apologize first for the long hiatus of this blog (without even a notice) but I'm back and hoping that this will be a start of a hobby of updating posts on a monthly basis, at least.

So to start with, Last Friday night, one of my closest friends called and tolc me that she's bringing me to a new place (and it's pink! her color!) which excites me because it''s been awhile since I last went out with my friends due to "thesis" (yes, the never ending stress of data gathering/analyzing/writing). I'm glad I'm almost done with thesis so I feel fine going out with friends without worrying too much about it. 

Saturday came and here I am with my close friend in a little pink cafe that almost looked like a real-life doll house, I could live in it forever. So to give you a clue of how it looks like, here are pictures that are drool-worthy and even pinterest-worthy, too. 

Glad to be Globe: A Proof of True Friendship

They say "No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth.”

Isn't it exciting to have friends? How much more if you have a best friend whom you can share everything and every detail of happy moments with no secrets at all? I felt that fortunate and lucky feeling whenever I go back to those high school days when I finally found my bff (best friends forever). But, I started to worry about our friendship months before our graduation because we would be on different paths for college. It was horrifying to know that you'll be thousand miles apart from your bff and we were afraid that our friendship will fall apart. So, we swore to not let distance hinder our friendship...and my bff even said "May phone naman, we can always call each other and converse like we're staying on the same house." I agreed on her and promised that we would really call each other no matter what. Despite calamities, bad days and all kinds of negativities in the world, we were able to maintain our best friendship by calling as often as we can. I’m really glad to be a globe user and even more glad that my bff is a globe user, too!

Up until now, we still call each other and we still tell all secrets and funny stories—enjoying our add-ons in our globe mysuperplan. I can't believe what a miracle this friendship has gone through. It's a challenging milestone to still be in touch with your best friend from high school but we did it! Globe paved the way for our friendship to still be close despite the distance that separates us. I’m Glad to be Globe because with Globe you can make things possible. Thank you globe! Abot ko ang mundo. :)
