He Goes By The Name of Oreo

Oreo - a chocolate sandwich cookie with rich cream filling. Twist open, lick the cream filling and dunk in milk for best results.

I had always been fond of Oreos. I really like it's cream filling which I lick with gusto everytime I eat one. Kind of reminds me of something.... Now don't turn dirty on me, it's not what you think! It reminds me of licking ice cream without the cold feeling.

Apparently, one of my cousins goes by the name of Oreo. He is not just a cousin, but probably one of my best friends as well. Whenever we're together, we just get to enjoy each other's company, and boy, do we really get wild!

I remember visiting him in Australia before and it was really very memorable for me. The sights, the people, but most especially, the "experiences" (if you know what I mean, *wink, wink*). I remember going around the city with him and being left by the bus. No train was available at that time due to some repairs. We had to take a cab to where we left his car, which is a suburb outside Sydney. Aaahhhh... the memories of Sydney. One day, I'll go back there and enjoy the Great Outback to its fullest!

We lost contact for quite some time. I suppose he became very busy as was I. Until this morning, when I received a notification of him accepting my invitation to be part of my multiply network. I never really knew what it was that closed down our lines of communication. I get to email him every now and then, but he doesn't seem to get to reply to them. I don't see him online in msn, nor do I receive any SMS from him.

Despite the lack of communication, I still consider him one of my best buds, one who gave me an unforgettable time in Sydney. Maybe, just maybe, one of these days, he would be able to reply to my messages. Last time I heard, he was doing good with his girl. Hopefully, the next time we meet, I'll have a girl to tag along with me.

Unfortunately, for now, all I can do is be contented with the Oreos in the local grocery and lick all the fillings off it one by one. Someday, I may have a girl to lick Oreo fillings with - not here, but in Sydney.
