How do I react when I heard the news that Friendster is closing their site? Well, to be honest I was a little bit lonely since it was the first social networking site I joined in. I remembered that I joined Friendster around February 2004, just after finishing my college degree. I didn't even know my own personal reason why I created an account, maybe during that time nakikiuso ako at nagpapaka-feeling teenager :P. But on a serious note, Friendster helped me locate my long-lost friends and relatives, keep in touch with my closest friends, talk to my students and found out how my ex-bf cheated on me (hahaha, nagpaka-hacker?!)... in a way Friendster strenghtened my relationship with friends and family, except for ex-bf. hahaha. (Uy move on na!)
Even though Facebook has overtaken Friendster because of its cool features, simplicity and keeping well-connected with friends and relatives, I still maintain an account in Friendster and one of the reasons is because I love reading my friends' testimonials about me. I used to remember that me and my friends liked to exchange testimonials and quotes with each other because it was fun leaking secrets and describing each other. Yung iba nga bago ko bigyan ng testimonial, pinag isipan ko talaga ng matagal bago ko isulat yung mga best traits nila. Pero minsan di ko pa rin maiwasan na hindi sila ilaglag or ibuking. Hahaha.
So since FS is going to erase old testimonials and photos, I keep some of memorable testimonials from my friends, classmates and students gave to me. And to be honest it was fun reminiscing them :)
Here are some of my favorite testimonials:

From KRL:
Last night a friend forwarded a text message to me, It was a simple heart
warming message my friends are my medicine when I'm in pain, my letter when I'm
far, my smile when I'm sad, my hanky when I cry, and my life when I die.. Thanks
for being one... C_____ has been one great friend. She knows why, I don't need
to explain to the world why. You should find out for yourself what I am talking
about. She is a tough shoulder you can lean on. Open minded and willing to
compromise, you can share many things with her without apprehensions, she'll
tell you things you wouldn't expect she'll tell (or probably things you expected
but really don't want to hear), but as they say, true friends are the ones who
will tell you the things you need to know no matter how hurtful it may sound. As
I am struggling, I learned that she can be your heart when you are numb, she'll
lend you her ears to listen, she is a clown to make you smile. Thank you for
being a great friend
From my Grad School classmate AS:

Hi Miss C-mint, Sya na ngayon ang pumalit na terror pagdating sa mga
Thesis defense. At sya na rin ang bagong Terror ng AMA. joke. hehehe. This girl
is really witty, we use to have a n EDUCATIONAL ARGUMENT about things that can both enlighten our knowledge about certain things. I know that she will continue
to be the most competitive person and her perseverance can let her go places in
the Industry. Hoope to see you soon, 50 cent C-mint.
From a college professor:
C's one of the coolest girl I have ever met. I have been seeing a lot of C before, but that was when she was still a student. Yup, payat na siya beforeFrom my HS classmate and ka-batch JD:
until now. He He He. Sabi niya, suwerte daw sila because there was never a
chance na naging panelist nila ako. He He He. Threatening ba ako? Magaling kasi
silang pumili ng room. I get to work with her early this school year, she's with
Rona who was my batchmate. Masaya kasama si C. I can say that she's to be
considered as one of the boys. Game yan, lalo na sa biruan. That's what I admire
about this girl, kahit medyo suplada eh, she can blend in perfectly. Looks can
be deceiving, she's really slim but her appetite's really good. Di ba Mitch?
Lagi kayong may date sa Wendy's? He He He. Too bad I left the organization, di
ko na siya makukulit more often. But one thing is good, we remain friends. Sana
makatikim ulit ako ng vegerroni (anu nga ulit ang tawag nina sir parreo dun? he
he he) mo. Good luck sa career C!

Every December we always have party with different games. You, the Bartolazo kids, Camela, R-Jay, and all the kids there in that neighborhood napakasaya. It seems yesterday lang. Take care and May God bless you and all your love ones. Ikamusta mo ulit ako sa family mo at kina Camela and R-Jay. Keep in touch!!!!! "L.Boogie"
