Be my friend

Sometimes you get a customer who just radiates positive energy and infects you with her happy attitude. Those times I feel like exclaiming "Let's be friends!". If only it was that simple to make new friends. Most people would probably think you're strange and walk away. And I wouldn't blame them! 

While I was studying in Japan I used to frequent a Starbucks during breaks and after class. I actually asked a girl working there if she would like to be friends. But we had met a few times already and she had commented on my Linkin Park pin attached to my bag since she was also a fan of them. Turned out she didn't live that far from me, so we ended up having coffee (or rather, sticky rice cakes and tea) in her neighbourhood. We emailed each other for a while after that, but that didn't last long unfortunately. I'm still a little disappointed that it didn't turn into a lasting friendship.
