In a world of serious matters, with serious grown-ups, there are those of us, too, who'd lurk into the coziness of a hot, freshly brewed cup of tea, contemplating Friendships on a land too basic, as we see it, and too mundane for such stirring affairs, thinking to ourselves, "This is life better defined".

Friendship Stories 2; Individual Friendships Over The Groups
Friendship Stories is a series on youths' experience of Friendship, initiated by Centre for Mental Health and Wellbeing at HELP University, hosted by Tea Buddies.
In our second episode of the Friendship Stories series, I ask Evon how her definition of Friendship has changed over the years, challenges she faced when starting to appreciate one-on-one friendship over the groups, and how she managed over-expecting when having only one best friend. Brace yourself for that and many more while enjoying your scrumptious evening tea.
Thank you once again for listening to Tea Buddies!
