there are people you meet in life and you would call them friends - but you tend to keep just 5 percent of them that knows the real you and lets you be you.. and loves you for you.

the eight of us were friends since college.  we became close even if the only thing we had in common was our course.  each of us were entirely different from one another.  some of us are tamed and some of us are outrageous.  and despite all the differences, we tolerate each others' quirks.  even after thirteen years.  the secret to staying together is the sincerity of offering and showing friendship - no hidden agendas.  walang plastikan, walang pasikatan.

after seeing other bunch of friend with their other sets of friends, i couldn't be prouder to have my 5% friends.  i'm so lucky to be a part of them, and on my side, through thick or thin, year by year.  i'm so proud that we grew up to be matured and level headed individuals who respects each others' decisions and ways of life.  and above all else - we all share the same brand of humor.  and that is priceless.

...and what i've learned most in life - i've learned it from them.  or with them.
