Random Observations

I have nothing better to do. I speak a lot, but when I'm jobless i like to observ people arounf me. The following is what I've observed in groups of friends around me. They might not be entirely true also.

There are three categories of friends in a group. First, the overbearing, stubborn, leader kind of friends. These are the people who have the most imposing presence in the whole group. They will talk loudly, look at everybody as if addressing each one of them and then finally put forth a plan as to how to do something. They also have this irritating habbit of doing whatever they like. They suggest those thing that they want to do and then make everybody do that. If some braveheart dares to stand say something different, he/she is subdued with the secret weapons- sulking and getting offended. Hence the people have no option but to go do what these people want.
Second, the meek, following-the-leader kinds. They do exactly what the first category people want them to do.They asert no opinion of theirs and just accept what others are saying. They even change their own view according to the general view around them. They are generally taken for granted and when they express their desire to do something, they are sadly told to shut up and nobody listens to them. Oh, they also have this irritating habit of just putting their nose into everything. When they want to do something, they just start repeating it like a chant or something. I think it is a result of their complex or something. they dont generally get to be the leaders and when they get the chance, they just want to do everything according to them, at that very moment! Sadly, the people i have seen this category with dont listen and simply ignore them. :|
Third, the sane, practical kinds. These people listen to everyone and do what they think is right. They generally allow the first category to do what they want and are considered to be the main components of the group. But sometimes they are forced to do what others want to do. They are the kinds who dont like to intentionally hurt people and try to maintain a calm profile. And this at times leads to their own wishes being thwarted by others. But all in all, they are friendly with everyone and get along well.

But another thing i've noticed is that though the people are different in character and nature, there is a very strong bond of friendship among them. They stay together as a group and stand with each other, often ready to break a few jaws and noses for their friends. No matter what they are as individuals, you cant help loving them together! :D
