Ode to my Miranda

 I just came from my home girls blog *sigh* I love this girl and I'm so proud of her,i'm not sure if I've ever told her this. I'm proud of where she is now as a woman,in her spirit and in her soul,I'm proud of where she's heading career-wise and what she has been able to achieve,I'm proud of where she is headed in life and love... So i'm dedicating this blog post to her.
I remember the first day I met her,day 2 of pre-degree Babcock University (October,2004). She was a day late and I had spent the night on a bunk bed (crying my eyes out). I couldn't believe i was in a new university sleeping on a bunk bed. The night before I was roomed with some other people just for the night,so when she came in with her suitcases n stuff you can imagine my excitement. Long silky hair, big eyes,big boobs and a tiny voice (almost childlike), I knew it was a match made in heaven (lol).

Us '05

We were pretty much inseparable after that,although we were in different classes (she was Arts,I was science) we still did almost everything together. Went for worship and sat together,went to dining hall together (we rarely did),went to town together,even went for weekends together. She helped me make more friends quicker,'cuz she already knew some people and is generally better at making friends than i am (still is,even now). The year went by we moved on to 1st year in uni,new campus,new roomies,new(er) friends. I hated my room and roommates,so i was always in her room pretty much,still we (her,zee n i) did most things together even though we were in different faculties and zee was in another hostel,we found the time to hook up in school (guest café lunch) and always left school together for weekends (Good ol'days). Things were good until 2nd year,1st semester(nov or dec '06). Everything came crashing down pretty fast,one minute it was attitude,next minute we weren't speaking at all!
I'd lost my first friend in that school. Hmmm only if i can remember the actual reasons why we stopped talking,i know a boy had something to do with it (NO!we weren't fighting over him. I wondered what she was doing with him). I didn't approve of the relationship so much,I didn't care to lose our friendship and thats exactly what happened. She became closer to other friends and so did I. We still had friends in common,but we just had a way of ignoring each other.
Things became tough for her,I heard,I saw but my pride was bigger than me. I'm not sure how it happened but we started talking again sometime in august or September of '08. But I had missed a lot! when I was busy forming "i don't care", even now,sometimes I feel because of what happened we are not as close as we should be, but the truth is I always did and I always will.

Tori n me '10

So here's to the "Miranda to my Carrie" (if you don't know what I mean watch sex and the city). Tough times don't last,but tough people do. She's the one I call when I need to talk,vent,gist...whatever!
I haven't known her the longest or her me,I don't know her the best or her me, but I am glad I know her. I'm glad we were able to work through our differences to where we are today.
I am glad I have Adetorera as a friend and sister. I love you girl,more than you know *muah*


Till next time Peace, Love, Harmony and Respect to you and yours.
