I always look forward to the nights out with the girls - as you know we don't get to meet that much often as we would like to. We've known each other for almost 20 yrs and I still see them as they were in our dark blue pinafore & 'decent' faces. Julie who's back from France for 3 weeks looks wonderful after almost recovering fully from her sudden stroke less than 3 mths ago. I missed Faz's wedding last July as I was sick after the Langkawi trip, she still looks the same, same happy-go-lucky charm even though went through quite an ordeal herself. As Rima & I met quite often, I guess we cant really see any difference apart from me insisting that she cut her hair (she did not). Idle chit-chats in between hearty meals at Fig & Olive and latte at Coffee Bean, the atmosphere was lighthearted and it never fails to invoke a kind of comfort & coziness. Always knowing that I can be myself among these girls. Knowing that sometimes you do not need much words to know that you understood each other, without questions, without judgement. Knowing that no matter what kind of exterior you put up, no matter what mood you are in, they will always know the real you. All in all it was a nice 'dinner-date' even though the weather was cold & grey, cheesy as it may sound, friendship could easily warm you up...
