I met my friend Wina at Paddington last Thursday and we had a great time. First we had a cappuccino at a cafe nearby and then went to have Lebanese food for dinner. We are still very good friends and time didn’t ruin this friendship. We have grown but she is still the crazy one and I’m the wise one. She is SO mad that she missed her bus back to Portugal on Friday and is now considering to stay in London for a while. Of course, they didn’t refund the money she had paid for the ticket. Obviously, she drank too much the previous night and overslept. Given it’s Wina, I’m not surprised!

Tomorrow I’m poping out to London after work. I’m meeting my good old friend Catarina whom I haven’t seen in a couple of years (at the very least). She’s my crazy friend! She is!! Absolutely insane! She’s lived in the UK, than she moved to Mexico and now she’s going to Portugal to take care of some personal stuff and then either go to Barcelona or come to London. She has been doing some courses and working here and there. Makes enough to live but is easily bankrupt. I wonder how can she do it and for how long does she think she can do this…

We met when we were fifteen, but didn’t become real friends until we were 17. It was the year before going to Uni but we partied a LOT. She didn’t finished her A-levels and I went to Uni. During my first year at Uni we hardly saw each other, but I made sure we remade contact during my second year. And then a lot of work drowned me and she moved country… I can hardly wait to hear all her stories and see how she looks.

Can distance and time destroy a friendship? I guess I’ll find out tomorrow. 5:30 at Paddington.
