               In our lives, we come across many people. We see new faces everyday. Many of them remain anonymous, some may be acquaintances and some become our friends. Friends come and go throughout our lives and each friendship is a unique relationship. Some friends are joy to be with while others may bore us.

               True friendship is a divine quality. To get a true friend is rare achievement nowadays. I am lucky enough to have Aishah Jusnaidi as my best friend. Flashback to the past 7 years, I was just an innocent eleven year old girl with an empty cup of experience about the world. She came by and started messing and filling my life with those crazy teenage ideas.

               With pair of sharp dark eyes, with shiny hair blows through her cheek, far from distance I can proudly say, "that's my best friend!". One of her special feature is that she has this curve on her face that lights up whenever she smiles. From her head to her toe, her butt to her nose, she is one of those beautiful girls in her school. She is the kind of girl that stands out in a crowd. To judge her solely on appearances would satisfy the most cynical of beauty critics. But her looks don't scratch the surface of her many layers. She can make you wonder about what lies beneath the exterior.

               She is one hell of a talkative girl but when I'm in trouble or just disappointed about something, she turned out to be the best listener I have ever met. She even understands the situation or problem I'm facing without having me to explain it all to her. It's like we are on the same wavelength of thoughts.

               Sometimes, my issue may be so large that I cannot see through the forest of troubles, however she can see through that forest, into the valley and give me answers without hesitation or questions. Knowing when not to ask questions is a must of a best friend.

               To summarize, I feel blessed having her as my best friend for about 7 years. I wouldn't ask for more. Without her, I'd probably be a geek, I wouldn't be a laugh-a-holic, I wouldn't be so loud and weird, i wouldn't have thought to live in the moments and most important is, I wouldn't be who I am today.
