Wats friendshiP...?
before me, ask if you
could bring a friend.
Strangers arejust friends waiting to
happen.
Friends are the Bacon
Bits in the Salad
Bowl of Life.
True friendship islike sound health;
the value of it is
seldom known
until it is lost. -- Charles Caleb Colton
If you live to be a hundred,I want to live to be
a hundred minus one day,
so I never have to live
without you. -- Winnie the Pooh
My father always usedto say that when you die,
if you've got five real friends,
then you've had a great life.; -- Lee Iacocca
Don't walk in front of me,
I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me,
I may not lead.
Walk beside me and
be my friend.
-- Albert Camus
A friend is someone who knowsthe song in your heart
and can sing it back to you
when you have forgotten
the words.;
A real friendis one who walks in
when the rest
of the world walks out.
Hold a true friend with both your hands.; -- Nigerian Proverb
We all take differentpaths in life,
but no matter where we go,
we take a little of each
other everywhere.; -- Tim McGraw
Everyone hearswhat you say.
Friends listen to
what you say.
Best friends
listen to what you don't
say.
I'll lean on you andyou lean on me and
we'll be okay
If all my friends wereto jump off a bridge,
I wouldn't jump with them,
I'd be at the bottom to
catch them.
Friendship is one mindin two bodies.
-- Mencius
my best friends.......

Somewhere between the *procrastination* and the homework..
and the incessant forwards
and the friendships and the calls
to each other complaining about CrUsHeS and
BF/GF!! Somewhere between the phone calls to old
friends and the "I miss you's", the " I love you's" and
the "What are we doing tonight's?" And somewhere
between all of the changing and growing...
somewhere between the classes and the skipping
classes...and the StUdYiNg for teStS...And the
PRETENDING to "StUdY" for TeStS...
And the downright NOT StUdYiNg for TeStS...
I forgot--I forgot what ScHooL was all about.
Somewhere between all the appointments, coffee day coffee,
and Little Italy... paying bills and then not paying bills...
Making plans then breaking plans... Appearing, Disappearing,
then reappearing ... I forgot--I forgot what it was like to cry.
I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make you
happy... And that pretending to
be SmArT doesn't make you smart .. I forgot
that you can't just forget the past in
fear of the FUTURE... I forgot that you
can't control falling in LoVe..
And that you can't make yourself fall in *LoVe*
.... I learned that I can LOVE... I
learned that it's okay to MEsS UP....
And it's okay to ask for HELP!!!.. And it's
okay to feel like crap... I learned it's okay to cOmPLaiN
and wHINe to all your friends for a whole day........
I learned that sometimes the things you want
most you just can't have and the things that
you look for are right in front of you.
I learned that the greatest thing about
HiGh ScHOoL and CoLLeGe and the working world
it isn't about the parties or the
DRiNKiNG or the Hookups ...
It's the *FrIeNdShIpS*, which means taking chances.
I learned that sometimes the things we want to forget
are the things which we most need to talk about...
I learned that TIME and LOVE can heal all things...
I learned that just when you think it can't get worse - it does! ...
but with the love and support of friends - you survive...
I've learned that when you start feeling BaD
about L O S I N G touch and about those that you've lost!
They too, are feeling the same way....
I learned that letters from friends are the
most important things. And that sending cards to your
friends makes you feel better! But, basically, I just learned
that my friends........ Both old and new..... are the most important
people to me in the world AND.......without them, I wouldn't be who
I am today.....
So this is a THANK YOU to all my friends...
For always being there. And even if we're not on good terms
or we have lost touch... I will always have an unconditional
love for you..
~Always and forever

Enlighted....
Go fish...
Timon n' pumbA's Pest controlE...
Bugs Goodness....
Gorging on spiders and grasshoppers, or entomophagy, as the practice is originally called, provides essential nutrients, keeps down pests and puts much less strain on the planet than eating conventional meat.
Scientists from Ohio State University have dubbed these insects as "micro-livestock".
"Insects are the most valuable, underused and delicious animals in the world," the Independent quoted David George Gordon, a Seattle-based naturalist and author, as saying.
The West "is one the few cultures" that doesn't eat them, he adds. "Maybe we are the weirdos."
The UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) had also held a special conference highlighting their benefits earlier this year.
Studies have shown that insects are rich in protein and essential nutrients and contain much less cholesterol, and much more unsaturated fat, than other kinds of meat.
Scientists at the National Autonomous University of Mexico have listed 1,700 different species and found that bugs are bolted down in at least 113 countries globally.
The dishes popular world-over include a plate of maguey worms- larvae of a giant butterfly in Mexico, Sago grubs wrapped in banana leaves in Papua New Guinea, Large leafcutter ants in Colombia and wasps with rice in Japan's Emperor Hirohito.
