Friend | Off the Top of My Head

In Memory of Mimi

Imyat, that’s what I fondly called her. She introduced me to blogosphere. She was the one who encouraged me to create this blog. I guess she’s my only reader who visits my blog very so often. (She has no choice ‘coz I am so “kulit” and she would ask me to do the same on her blog. ) I was inspired by her. I just love how she writes and how she expresses her feelings. I always look forward for new posts from her. And I wonder lately, there was none….. My only reader has stopped reading my blog. She hasn’t answered to my offline msgs. My inspiration has stopped blogging. On her last post she said, ” Writing is my bestfriend and I will not turn my back from it unless it is the other way around, but I doubt it.”

Today, I learn that she’s gone…

I’ve lost a friend..a very good friend. :-(

She’s my listener and a great one. She’s my supporter. We’ve been chatmates for a year now. We were batchmates in college but there was no opportunity for us to be close back then. We even have plans laid out when I’ll be back in Cebu. I never get tired of listening to her stories. I just love her energy. I promised her that she’ll be one of my bridesmaids when I get married.

She’s online everynight – which is daylight over here. She was there when I was bored with work. She was there when I was sad. She was there when I was down. She was there when I need someone to talk about my father’s accident. When I was angry with someone, she was there to take my side. She was there when I was happy and excited with something. You see, I have no friends to talk to over here but she’s there. I know she’s still there.

I will miss you so bad, Myat! I love you! I hate to say, Goodbye…..
