Ever since I’ve deactivated my facebook account I noticed the difference it makes. Totally relaxing. You don’t have that itching-witching feeling of having to login and check who’s doing what. It’s unconsciously spying on people, even if they agreed that you do - they (myself included) just don’t realize how dangerous it could be. So, out of curiosity (really), and after three months offline time - I sneaked to Facebook and checked what’s up with certain people. Only then I came through Nermine’s facebook. And only then I realized how much I miss that girl.

Nermine has pretty much vanished from the internet scene (i envy her), she got herself busy with work and limited herself with real life acquaintances. It’s kind of ironic and sad honestly because it always be the good ones that have to leave. So out of curiosity I’ve opened my bookmarks and navigated to her blog. It’s still there, and it had a couple of updates dates this month. One of them is about her “little miss perfect” self-titling that she loves to go by. One thing that makes you ponder about is why she always talks about perfection. I believe that perfectionists are the most normal people you would want to meet in your life. No matter how paradoxical that might sound, but people who care about details, perfection seekers, those who want (and never could) live in a perfect world - those dreamy people; they form the creme-de-la-creme of your whole acquaintance basket.

Some people realize the importance of someone’s presence in their life too late. I haven’t. But when you start thinking about how you used to express your thankfulness to them when they were still around - and now coming to think about it: you realize that you only care about the people who you actually think about and miss when they’re long gone. I do miss Nermine, we’ve been good friends, we’ve shared lots of daily funny moments - we get along very well. It would appear selfish from myself if I wish that one day those old fun-time return and i’d spend hours babbling about nothing and everything. It would sound selfish - but, if life tells us to be grateful, if it tells us to be thanksful, shouldn’t we listen?

I miss you Nermine. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing; I hope you’re finding you way through the crowd.
