THE KNIGHTS OF THE WHITE ROUND TABLE
all my life... (well atleast my college life) i've been searching for that clique, that set of friends that i will truly belong and be my self... i know deep within my heart that i have found it and that is ARCADIA. after long long years of shifting from group to group every dreary semester, i have finally found the one group that i know will not last for just a semester. i know that this is for keeps, this is for life. in the same way that i have found my clique in high school. ARCADIA is different, it is not merely a friendship built around classmates who more often than not share the same sentiments or opinions on a certain matter, decisions based because of peer pressure, it is no longer the trial stage nor the experimentation stage. ARCADIA as i have come to know it, are a group of diverse and very opinionated individuals, who are not afraid to say what they feel even if it stirs different emotions, not afraid of lenghty debates over highly intellectual discussions or even very meanial things.. they are people who are not afraid of what others think of them, they accept you for what you are, they dont give out uncalled for judgements nor are they pretentious.. what i loved most about ARCADIA is their value for friendship, how they give importance to friends, i have to agree with renchie when she says that friendship is an investment, after all it is.. you spend a lot of your time, your emotions, and basically your all in the group... this is after all a relationship, and one must really invest in one... it's just so sad that after all this time, some people would think of you less, less in the sense that you do not have what it takes to be one of them or you are changing the whole culture of the group. it is sad when even just one person thinks that way, that you do not uphold the charactestics of the original or what the group used to be, maybe yes i am not in a position to have all these opinions, or maybe i am also giving my self too much credit in hoping that anyone would actually listen to me or even pay attenion to my opinions.. i know that i am one of the newbies and let me reiterate that i never thought of ARCADIA as an org nor a sorority or a confraternity that has its organizational structure and bylaws... ARCADIA to me is a relationship built around strong grounds of true and genuine friendship, a relationship that can never be quantified. and now after being in the group for almost three years, i can most definetly say that it is my second family. after my parents (my immediate family), it is ARCADIA that i consider my family because we have for me, crossed that boundary of just being uber close friends, to that level of caring, loving and looking out for each other in times distress and joy. i may never understand what "ARCADIA as an INSTITUTION" may ever mean since i was not there from the very begginning, though i wished i had so i will not be very disturbed by all these issues that have arised. some things may never be really changed or replaced, people come and people go.. we are not in the situation as it was like five years ago, but i hope the new changes brought about new people should not be taken in such a way that it hurts others' feelings.. patience and tolerance has its limits, please remember that we are mere mortals, capable of feelings such as hurt, rejection, and sorrow. it just kills me to think that newbies such as myself have caused all these comments, all these feelings... i love ARCADIA so much that i'd be willing to do almost anything for these people just so that everything is back as it is, before i entered, and if this means that i have to leave then so be it... i know i contributed to a lot of changes within the circle that's why i am willing to take this big a sacrifice if necessary.... (maybe this is the least i could do...) i hope we do iron out all our differences... i dont want any ill-feelings or comments such as what has been said to come across our relationship. i value you guys so much... maybe even much more as you value me... im sorry if i have been too emotional in this post, but i can't be helped... all these pent up emotions have to be written and said.. this is how much i value my friends... i love them for who they are, embrace them with open arms even with their imperfections... yes i think i really am capable of giving this so called unconditional love, unconditional friendship, a love so great that i never thought i am capable of giving... maybe the tarot card reader is correct i am in a relationship already, a relationship so strong, a relationship that is of envy of a lot...
