I learned a lot today. And it is ironic because today is the farewell party. I have been pondering, in this 'honeymoon' that I'm having. What actually can I get out of it?

I meet many people with many characters. The good, the bad, the weird and the totally off. I learned how to accept people and not to judge. I learned to accept that I'm not perfect by getting to know other people.

But how do you differentiate friends and acquaintances? How do you tell which one will last for long and which won't? How do you tell the gold from brass?

I guess there's no short and fast way. Sometimes, one's intention is to be friendly, but somepeople are merely judgmental. Sometimes, one's intention is to help, but some people are simply too problematic and push you away. Sometimes, your first impression fooled you, you thought of arrogance and cold heart, but some people are just in for the prize, not the game. Sometimes, you think they are your friends, but some people would rather see you walk than to walk together with you. Sometimes, what you understand is friendship requires sacrifices, but some people just don't know where to draw the line.

And most often, you think that you know where are you going, but that's when things go wrong.

I met assholes, prudes, airheads, Elvis, distant, to just plain WEIRD.

But this is my honeymoon, as MK said that. It is the time where I enjoy my time the most.

People say, when I'm away, I'll start a new life. Yes, but this is what I'm bringing along with me: immeasurable treasure I call friendship. Not friends, but friendship. People that I know I can confide in and will talk bad about me, judge me, but is there to lend the shoulder.

I'm really sad. Because I know it's ending soon. You know how they say the best prize is the last one? I think so too. Because I realize, when people cares for you, it is because of a good heart who is willing to make a place, not because of self-centered pride who is there because of who you are.

You might be asking what am I talking about.

But if you understand, I'm happy for you.

Dear my honeymoon friends, I'm really happy to have met you. I have a feeling that our path might not cross. But this is life we're talking about. You gave me the best closure that I need. And truly, I love you all and will eternally be grateful for the time we have spent. ...
