One

I thought I should write about each one of the things in my 50 things list, as one of my friends pointed out I should. So; here goes.
Number one: Make a group of friends which I will know for the rest of my life.
This is a must. Friends are the family you choose, and they know all your dirty secrets. It makes sense to have a group to grow old with.
In primary school, I had two best friends. There names were Liss and Ana, and I thought I was going to know those girls forever. At the end of year 6, we all went to different high schools and eventually fell out of contact. Now, all they are is Facebook updates and the occasional bump into one another.
I absolutely love all the friends I have made since leaving primary school, but we finish high school in just over a year, and I know we'll get lazy and lose touch.
I desperately don't want that to happen.
Yet, I know friends come and go. The quote, "friends for a season, friends for a reason" comes to mind. To make a group of friends to know forever though? To graduate high school with? To go to Uni with? To have by your side when you get married? To egg you on to take that chance? To grow old and be on the front porch gossiping and knitting with?
That's priceless, and something I so desperately want to have
