well i have been wondering. what is friendship? it's a common term used within everyone but is there a definite definition to it? to some, it may seem insignificant. to others, it may seem the whole world to them. let's look at some scenarios:

Scenario 1:

A just came back from OCIP and have tons of CIP to do and have not enough time to do her homework. As a result, she is looking for people to take over her duties for gift wrapping. B, being a good friend of A, is willing to help take over duties of C and D so that they can cover her duties. She is sacrificing her time to help her friend. Is that friendship?

Scenario 2:

E used to be good friends with F and gang. However, E sort of drifted apart from the rest for no reason at all. But F still regards E as a good friend, and yet the gang dont like E. F continues to be very close to E and gets outcasted by the gang. Is this friendship?

in the past, i only believe in a friend in need is a friend indeed. but recent events have been me reconsider that fact. even if he helped you, could it be for his own benefit and he actually dont care about you?

(A, B, C, D, E, F and gang are completely fictional. Any similarities are totally coincident.)
