A few weeks ago, I went on a trip with my best friends to visit our other best friends. It hasn't been easy for us; half the group in Singapore, the other half here. A married couple on each side of the ocean. A bachelorette to keep them company. But we make do. Long-distance calls. Quick weekends. Birthdays and weddings and holidays rolled into one. We exhaust ourselves on trips like this, walking everywhere, doing everything, but we are never really tired. We gossip well into the night and sleep in during the mornings. We snap pictures like crazy.
We find time for coffee, too, during those lazy mornings and in roadside nooks. There is always much to talk about. We exist here, in these pocket moments, always in each other's company. I miss them.

Oh I know how you feel! It's so hard to catch up with friends based in other countries but you do the best that you can. It feels great when you get to spend time with them although it always feels like kulang sa oras.
I know! Bitin lahat. It really makes me treasure their company even more though. What's also nice is that sometimes the friends who have left actually become closer to you after they've moved away. :)
