Well, i'm almost finishing this book!! :) it's never been the case where i picked up an English book and never wanted to put it down. many times i'll get bored altogether because there's somewhere in this book i call the 'have to get over and done with' part, its the most boring, but u know u can't miss it or not the story would never be as complete as it was meant to be. this book is all about friendships. girl talk here. :)
I've witnessed what i thought strong friendships should have been through this book. it gave me a whole new light into what 'pulling through thick and thin' meant. from the young and naive 14 to the 40s, w only life and death parting to divide them physically, but never mentally. Tully and Kate pulled through all. they may look and act like sun and moon, being completely different from each other, but when it comes to talking things out and having a girls heart-to-heart talk, they'll spill everything out to each other. nothing came in between them-not even boys.
this book reminds me of the friends i had and am still having. they were great buds when it came to sharing our interest together. we could talk non-stop about the things we liked in common. i may not know what she's up to these days, but if i'm willing to find out, she's willing to tell everything to me. i aspire to keep this cherished friendship just like how Kate and Tully had it. until out ripe old age, rocking on the chairs, reminiscing our youthful days...
if u have friends who didn't mind your sinking mouth in the morning, didn't mind how u looked when u're tired, didn't mind if ur singing was horrible, didn't mind if u threw a tantrum on one of your worst days, who didn't mind you keeping quiet for the whole day when u din feel like talking, who didn't mind sharing your greatest joy on earth, by simply hugging you and smiling together until tears welled up, trust me, u've found a friend for life. there are many many more friends do for each other which simply couldn't be jotted down in simple words.
i truly treasure each and everyone i hold dearly to in my heart. u are God's greatest gift to me.
