Familiar friends



I keep thinking that our eyes are starting to look alike but nobody else sees it. Maybe i'm just too used to seeing our faces together in photos, the familiarity of us three has been mistaken in my mind as similarity in us three.

It's strange to think that come September, the three of us may be in three different countries for university - Ireland/England/Australia/Singapore.

Don't leave me. Don't leave them. I promise I'll call.

“There was a time when it wasn’t uncommon to use a piece of string to guide words that otherwise might falter on the way to their destinations…The physical distance between two people using a string was often small; sometimes the smaller the distance the greater the need for the string.

“The practice of attaching cups to the end of the string came much later. Some say it is related to the irrepressible urge to press shells to our ears, to hear the still-surviving echo of the world’s first expression. Others say it was started by a man who held the end of a string that was unravelled across the ocean by a girl who left for America.

“When the world grew bigger, and there wasn’t enough string to keep the things people wanted to say from disappearing into the vastness, the telephone was invented." - The History of Love
