"Friendship: The Beautiful Chaos We Can't Live Without"

-

 

Friendship is a lot like a buffet—you never know what you’re going to get, but you always end up with a weird combination of things on your plate. Over the years, I’ve come to realize that friends come in various types, much like different flavors of ice cream (or, depending on their personality, different types of mild disasters). Here are some of the most common species of friends you’ll encounter in the wild:

1. The Mom Friend
This one always carries tissues, band-aids, and a fully stocked emergency kit. They remind you to drink water, text them when you get home, and scold you like a disappointed parent when you make questionable life choices. If they could legally adopt you, they probably would.

2. The “Five-Minutes-Away” Friend
This person will always tell you they’re "on their way" when, in reality, they are still in bed, contemplating the meaning of life. Time is merely a suggestion to them, and you’ve accepted that making plans with them requires a built-in 30-minute delay.

3. The Over-Dramatic Friend
Every minor inconvenience is a tragedy of Shakespearean proportions. They don’t just stub their toe; they “barely survive a near-fatal accident.” Their life is a soap opera, and you are their unwilling audience.

4. The Foodie Friend
Always knows the best places to eat and somehow orders food like they studied a menu for years. You never have to decide what to eat because they’ve already analyzed the Yelp reviews and picked a place. They will also aggressively judge your food choices (and then steal a bite from your plate).

5. The Ghost Friend
You only see them every few months, but when you do, it’s like no time has passed. They’re impossible to track down, but they show up at the most random times, leaving you to wonder if they’re actually a government spy.

6. The Sarcastic Friend
Communicates exclusively in eye rolls, sighs, and the phrase “Oh wow, so impressive.” Their love language is mockery, and if they aren’t roasting you at least once a day, something is seriously wrong.

7. The Hyperactive Friend
This one has the energy of a sugar-fueled toddler. They can turn a simple grocery trip into an adventure and somehow convince you to do things like climb trees or dance in public. Exhausting but lovable.

8. The Chaotic Planner
Constantly makes plans, then cancels them, then reschedules them, then forgets they even made them. Their brain is a whirlwind of ideas, and you just hold on for dear life while they decide between game night, a movie, or a last-minute road trip.

At the end of the day, friends are like a mixed bag of weird, wonderful, and slightly unhinged personalities, and that’s what makes them special. Whether they’re dragging you on spontaneous adventures, giving you unsolicited life advice, or sending you memes instead of emotional support, life wouldn’t be the same without them. So cherish your friends, no matter what species they belong to—because let’s be honest, you’re probably just as weird as they are.

Daydreaming: The Ultimate Escape Plan

Have you ever sat in a dull lecture, nodding like you’re paying attention, while secretly picturing yourself winning an Olympic gold medal in a sport you just made up? Or maybe you're physically in a work meeting, but mentally, you’re relaxing on a private island, sipping fresh mango juice and ignoring reality? If so, congratulations! You have mastered the fine art of daydreaming. Why Our Minds Wander (And Why It’s a Superpower) Some call it distraction—I call it creative thinking. While others are stuck in the real world, we are out there designing our dream houses, rewriting history to make ourselves look cooler, and imagining epic comebacks we should have said years ago. Research (conducted entirely by me, with no scientific backing) suggests that daydreaming is a sign of intelligence, creativity, and, most importantly, survival.

Babies: The Tiny, Adorable Dictators of Our Lives

Babies. They drool, they scream, they turn your house into a war zone of toys and half-eaten biscuits—and yet, we’re completely obsessed with them. They’re the only creatures on Earth who can burp in your face, wake you up at ungodly hours, and still have you saying, “Aww, so cute!” As someone with a niece and nephews, I’ve witnessed firsthand the absolute power these tiny humans wield. And trust me, they run the world—we’re just here to serve them. T he Sleep Tyrants Babies are the ultimate sleep thieves. They sleep when they want, where they want, and in the weirdest positions imaginable—except when you want them to. The moment you finally get comfy in bed, they pull off the classic move: The Midnight Siren. One second, silence. The next? A scream that could wake up the neighbors (and possibly some distant relatives). And don’t even think about sneaking out of the room once they’re asleep. Babies have a built-in alarm system. The second your foot leaves the room—BAM! Eyes wide op...
