I've never been a religious person, nor do I believe there is a God, but I truly feel blessed by having the 4 girl friends that I have.
If I were to go back 5 years, I had no friends. Pretty much the same could be said about my whole teenage life until I reached about 18. I had 'friends' at the time that turned out to be backstabbers, or just generally nasty people.
One of my now best friends I have known since I was 15 through the same friend, we never hung out on our own, but when out groups of friends came together, for some strange reason me and her were inseparable, we used to laugh and get drunk together in the park, like teenagers do at that age, and talk about being in a band, sometimes ignoring all the other people around us because we were so engrossed in our own conversation. Not until the 5th of December, not last year, but the year before, I asked her to come with me, while I went to meet a guy in London who's band was playing. She did. And since that day, I don't think I've gone more than about 3 days without talking to each other in some form, whether it be through phone calls, texts, emails, myspace comments etc.
Another one of my best friends I met at college. The thing with our college is it had courses for music, media, dance and art students, the place was filled with talented people and during free lessons or break times the main corridor was packed with students. Again I met her through one of my classmates, she was a music student, on a guitar course and I was a media student. I'm not quite sure how exactly it happened, but we were both fans of a particular metal band, and it so happened we were both going to the same gig at the Brixton Academy on the 5th of December 2004, exactly a year before the other gig, a omen or a sign?! Either way we were standing in the corridor, getting louder and louder talking about how much the lead singer turned us on, and so, obviously we've remained friends ever since.
On the 3rd of November last year we all flew out to LA for my birthday, which turned out to be a real test of friendship, we pulled it the fuck together and got on with it, and I was so proud of it, that not only did we catch our flight out there, but other than the first couple of days we didn't really have any idea of where else we were going to be staying, what we we're going to be doing, who we'd meet up with etc, but we did, and it was one of the best times of our lives, and I say it like that because I know there are more times to come.
Luckily two of my other best friends are in my band and for the short amount of time I've known them, we are extremely close already, and I love them, I love all of them, not only did I go from having no friends, to a small, close group of girl friends that can tell each other anything, and they are great, I can't go for one day now without talking to at least two of them and most days I get the chance to talk to all of them.
I'll never be able to explain to them how much they mean to me, they are fantastic people and I would without question risk my own life to save theirs.
