friendships and design

1) the day before yesterday Michael told me that he was working on... Halloween invitations! i had never ever heard of him doing anything like that for 2 years of our relationship :D so yes he surprised me. i asked if i could help, and he actually asked me to do them for him.

to tell the truth.. design is such a thing for me that i may just have some idea and it will turn out good but when smb asks me to make smth i can completely fail it. so i was kind of anxious... nevertheless i made an invitation pretty quick... only to find out that it wasn't suitable, because there is a huge and long buletted list of invitation text (which Michael was working on while i was 'designing')!

so.. i practically remade the whole thing. and oh my god i actually did the 2 invitations in 3 hours! which is smth unheard of!

anyways.. here is what turned out


there is this thing with holidays in America. among friends and family they kind of 'divided' holidays, and every holiday got a reponsible person (or several persons :) ) so Halloween is Michael's and Linzy's (Linzy is Brian's wife, and Brian is Michael's brother, for those of you who don't know). and of course it will be mine :D i guess it's my favorite holiday of all! i just LOVE it!!!

2) there are some friendships which you value greatly but which fall apart because of some idiotic misunderstanding(s). and neither side wants to make the first step, because it feels betrayed by smb dear. Like if this misunderstanding took place with smb else, nobody would remember it on the next day. but it is the closest people that can hurt the most. however, the good thing is that when it's a real friendship, it will be fixed in some time. sometimes it is fixed in several weeks, sometimes in months, and sometimes in years. But good friends return into each other lives. and it's just beyond being great!

3) yesterday after diploma award ceremony i met up with Helen. we walked to Tashir pizza and had some pizza there like you could have guessed. we hadn't met up in some loooong time, so there was much to discuss (girlish themes in general). we giggled a lot and just goofed around. the cafe was very nice - the tables were far apart and that hall downstairs wasn't crowded, the waiters weren't annoying but were on time. the atmosphere was very nice and we felt relaxed. Helen wants to join my swimming classes which is just great! i'd love her in company :D



the thing with Helen is that since the second year of school.. our friendship hasn't changed. it had its ups and downs but usually we are the same troublemakers.. where she is always the innocent victim of my bad influence MUAHAHAHA

Question:

Is "2)" connected with "3)" ?

;)))
