A thing called "FRIEND"

I made a chinese friend in class. Not that I didn't have one earlier, there is already this particular guy from the northern part of China (Mongolia). But like always, a friend of the same gender somehow seems to be a better fit for me. And.... DANG!!!

She joined our class recently, she's from Taiwan. I am so glad someone can make me practise my poor Mandarin again. The last time was with Angela and then this Mongolian guy, however he is always asking me political questions or about the lessons. There wasn't much we would discuss about. But a girl is different, I can do all the gossip or girlish talk - just like the men talk about car, women and football :))

I feel very lousy with my supposedly Mother Tongue Language, I'm ashamed. I need to brush it up, and kick the habit of having a "rojak" sentence combining Mandarin and English. Or worse, even german! This can sound pretty awful I imagine...

Random thoughts:
A good friend of mine just texted me from Singapore, telling me what a loner she is and all her friends are not there for her when she needed them. She sounds miserable and having little faith in this thing called "Friendship". I have no idea what to say, friendship has to be mutual and be reciprocated. If it only goes one-way then the person is not deserved to be called a friend. Just like in Friendster, you can fucking hell have a list of 500 friends... but how many are there in real that you can actually say they are my friends... Good friends?? I think real friends you can count with your fingers, not with the calculator please...
