My great Friend BlueDolphin..
I had to write about BlueDolphin one way or another. I had once said that I would write about him on another blog of mine..but too many people I knew were reading it. I figured starting a blog like this makes it easier for me to really spill my guts out.
I met BlueDolphin back in 2000 or maybe 1999. We met by coincidence..I was in a philosophy chatroom and he was there too. We started talking and then I realized he went to a university up north from mine. One thing led to another and I asked if he knew my friend Aron. Things were starting to make more and more sense,when BlueDolphin asked if I was the girl Aron talked about when Aron would visit him. Point to mention here is that Aron and BlueDolphin were best friends from their elementary school days. I had once seen a pic of BlueDolphin when Aron brought it down after visiting him. So...after we both realized that we knew a ton about each other mainly through Aron, we started talking.
We became a lot closer in 2000 and then towards 2001..when I needed a lot of support from shit in my life. He was there to lend an ear..I'll never forget the night calls from 11 till 2 a.m. if not longer. BlueDolphin is a night owl, and he was always there whenever I had a complaint..and boy did I have a ton of them.
Aron got married in 2002, and BlueDolphin came down to his wedding. We met in 2002; the meeting was unique. I felt as if I had known him all along...Aron had talked his mouth off about us to each other. Aron had picked him up from the airport and then dropped him off in my hometown and my friend of the time Anne and I took him out to eat. We hung out for a bit..but then I left telling him he could hang out with a guy friend of mine at the time, while I went home for the night. I'm not sure if BlueDolphin ever did, though he said he went out on the town and got pot that night and drank. He stayed at a friend of mines' apartment and ended up going through a lot of her shit. I visited him daily for the 3 days he stayed, though I think he got mad at me..as I believe he wanted more time with me which I wasn't able to give due to my schedule of being in a summer program and other things.
Throughout the years, up till now..whenever I've needed an ear he's been there. He's brought me up when I'm crying with no words..and made me realize and rationalize things. He's smacked me upside the head when I needed it.
He's a very lazy guy too..and has a bunch of qualities I totally dislike. He knows I hate them...and he knows a ton of shit he hates about me. Through it all though we've stuck it through and been good friends. He knows of almost all the major happenings in my life...and he's supported me through all of them.
It's funny how friends meet. It's funny how we keep in touch. It's funny how I fight with BlueDolphin nonstop and then he calls me or I call him and we talk like nothing happened. It saddens me though that he lives so far away now in Korea for his job. He says he will come back and visit his family in California, and then fly out to see me. All I know is that meeting up with him will be a lot of fun..though we'll have quite a lot of catching up to do.
