seperation anxiety

I only have two days here in the office and will surely gonna miss everything...YM-friendster-blogspot-multiply-yahoo access...chatting...minute breaks...hanging out...coffee...and the like! I must admit (with some sort of guilt!) that for my four months stay here, I have felt that it was just like havin' a great time for myself...for my friends...and for anybody else. I know, ok, that it was a little unfair...I don't know...but to sum it all? my stay was generally (or fabulously!) great! (or fun, whatever?!). On top of that, nothing really compares with the bonding time I had with Roche....that's something I really treasure. We have been friends since college and that's for almost ten years. We're close but, well, not this much... Let just say before, I used to call (bug)her on the phone, in the middle of my "topak mood or taranta mood", just to release either my temper, boredom, stress, anger...or whatever outburst I may have, just when she was about to take a sleep after her long and heavy day/night in the office (btw, she was then working in the call center...hehehe). Or sometimes...I would call her in the office (when she was working the bank, just imagine how busy it is to work in the bank and one can not really afford to make long calls...) ...But, I do that to all my friends (I mean, in our group) especially when I wan't to make "papansin" or "lambing"....
I remember our big (but petty) fight .... I told her she wasn't paying attention. The funny thing was...I wanted (expected) her to memorize all the characters involved, all the dates, places, events in my stories...and I wanted her to answer correctly, in case I would ask her just to make sure she's getting everything right (some sort of an oral recitation in a class, imagine that?!)hahaha and whenever we remember about that, we couldn't help but to burst out a mouth-breakin' laugh!
But now, maybe because, we're getting a bit matured (hope not only physically) each day...there's really a certain depth in our friendship. If there was already before...I know, time made it a lot deeper. We saw each other succumb in our fears, triumph in our undertakings, cried like a baby, laugh like there's no tommorrow, stand firm with our principles/pride/decision....we saw each other hold on to faith...dream...wish...love...hope...forgive...let go....accept....enjoy...and believe. I am happy and will forever be grateful for havin' such a wonderful and awesome friends..just like Roche. I will certainly miss everything, including the perks, about the office...but more than that...I will surely miss every minute with Roche. But of course....it is a given thing that friendship remains...besides, in our group we considered everyone as an extended family member.
