I love my friends.
I knew they were not temporary friends, or the friends you have in high school for social conveniency. But I also knew to keep our bond strong, we had to make a strong effort. The way I describe my friend group is like a bag of marbles; there is a variety for the personalities, and when there is more of one it messes with the dynamic of the group. Let me introduce the personalities of Flosse Posse + KOD:
1. The Carnela
The Carnela is the baby and at times the most sensitive one. She is the friend you could never stay mad at for a period of time. She’s the goofy, yet adorable friend. The quiet, but filled with opinions and when alone with her friends is a firecracker. But she’s also that friend that holds things in. She is that friend with a bag filled with everything you could possibly need. That friend in class that laughs at all your jokes and shares snacks under the desk. That friend you can vent to and supports your decisions regardless; She is our purple marble.
2. The Armoni
This is that friend that is typically the center of attention, the outgoing friend. The Party and spontaneous Talkative that has a lot of friends. Most times they are the very ‘friendly’ one that ends up bringing others into your circle. Never thinks they are wrong, and loves to argue. But you know they love you. The friend you have conflicts with, but is worth every fight. The friend that is territorial of the group. The friend that has their slow moments, but understands what you're thinking. This is the green marble.
3. The Taliah
This is that friend that you would always lose an argument to. Never want to share. That non-emotional, but deep down emotional friend. That friend who calls you out when you're doing something dumb or reckless. That person you can always trust with your business and to give you a laugh when you need it. That strong friend to support you when you are low. This is the pink marble.
4. The Sibyn
This is the realistic friend. The one that thinks 360 about a situation. The one that gives you the possible good and bad outcomes of a situation. The friend that is caring and loyal to a fault. Who would run to the moon and back for her friends. The talkative and debating one, who would fight for her friends in a heartbeat. Mother hen of the group, but one of the goofiest people. One of the emotional ones, but hides it pretty well. This is the red marble.
5. The Nasair
This is the guy of the group. The guy you go to for advice about guys, and how to understand them. He is the goofy friend and the middleman. When there is a fight he is the determining factor, the judge. He is the sometimes insensitive one, we blame that on him being a guy. The friend that tags along for the adventure. He’s the outsider, but at the same time the glue and the missing puzzle piece. This is the blue marble.
Flossy Posse
We are all one, it is quite crazy to see the shift in personalities that college has caused. Nasair and I have become Armoni, Armoni has become Sibyn, Carnela has become Taliah and Taliah is now Carnela. Who are you?
