There are 3 types of friends:
- FRIENDS: These are the people you eat lunch with, and whom you are morally obligated to sit next to in any class. These are the people who you don't have to acknowledge while passing in the hallway, because you are already an accepted part of their life, and will unconditionally continue to be so.
- SUBJECT BUDDIES: These are the people you partner up with in those classes without any of your FRIENDS. You know them from some incident back in K-yr7 inclusive, or are on the same rung in the social ladder as them. You make smalltalk dissing teachers or about homework. Awkward silences are common in these relationships. Sometimes these SUBJECT BUDDIES may upgrade to being FRIENDS, but it's rare. Especially after you choose electives. (after yr9)
- FATE FRIENDS: You have no idea how you know these people, but whatever. Bus, maybe. Some lucky crossing of stars. This group is divided into 2 sub-groups: The personal and the impersonal.
Personal: You talk to them the most, and end up spilling your deepest darkest secrets. You only talk to them on msn or via text. In transit between classes, you say a simple 'hey' and then walk away, because what happens on msn stays in msn.
Impersonal: These exist to make you feel good about yourself when you have a shitty day. They are the ones to say hi to really publicly in hallways, and all you ever discuss is that one slightly-funny incident that happened oneday. You have really loud tacky jokes with eachother which seem like pretty impressive in-jokes to the onlookers, but are actually just lame. You can't trust impersonal FATE FRIENDS.
5. MISC - Life isn't set in concrete, so this one's for the exceptions. -edit-
This is for all those other randoms that are like on the sidewalk of the highway that's your life. These include borderline acquaintances/near friends, frenemies, ex's, people from outside of school, people you had a history with, awkward friendships, people you're not sure if you can really count them as FRIENDS, so no PDA there.
