My best friend My best friend and I know each other for about eight years now and she means a lot to me. In fact there's no person in this world I'm more honest with than her as I have faith that she's know all of me (ugly sides included) good enough to not be disillusioned or angry with me for anything I could do or say wrong. Nevertheless we are like Yin and Yang. She's chaos, right now without a job, loves to go to music festivals and sometime looks like a homeless person. About a year or two ago, there was a gypsy camp at the outskirts of our town and as it happened to be on the way to her destination, she went to have a look at it. Very soon one of them asked her "Are you new? I've never seen you before" thinking she was one of them, because she looked like them. (My friend told me afterwards that she had a great time talking to them; and that they were incredible nice people and really prefered the same cloth style as her.) I on the other hand study at university, couldn't care less about music, seem like a very disciplined person to most people and look like the very epitome of a "good girl". I don't really like that, but I'm too lazy to put in any effort to change it. Most of time I'm the reasonable and responsible one with a plan and my friend is being unreasonable and all over the place - not only with appointments, when I visit her, we often spent most of the time cleaning her flat together. So usually I'm the supportive one until there's a crises, e.g. we get told that a relative died. At those times we change places, because I just don't know what to do or to say and my friend suddenly turns into supergirl (though I don't think she notices ^^). Even though she's normally very blunt and almost rude, she suddenly really knows how to comfort and all the right words to say. And she doesn't fake it, she'll just be there for you, me or anyone that needs her. When I'm weak, she's strong. When somethings terrible happens, I know I can count on her. She know me best and sometimes I've no idea what I'd do without her. There's more to her than meets the eye and I really wish more people knew.
