Friends Believe

So, it was no secret to anyone that I am a big fan of Entourage, a TV show about four young guys who have been best friends since they were little boys. They all from the same are which was Queens of New York. One of them, Vincent Chase, is becoming an 'it' guy in the film industry hence his migration to Los Angeles, following his step brother, Johnny Chase a.k.a Drama who is an Hollywood has been. Together with him, he took his gang. Eric a.k.a E, a super serious guy, who is later on hired as his manager, and Turtle, a stalk hip hop want to be producer, who is happily enough to just drive his superstar best friend around the town. The male bonding thing between four of them is kind of beyond friendship, and as for me, I clicked with these boys right after I watched them for the very first time. Actually I didn't watched the first season from the beginning but then I bought their DVDs and collected them from the first to the sixth season. Yeah, you can say that am addicted to them! Big time!

Now here's the thing, I didn't just get this addiction without any reason. I personally admire their friendship and really get into their stuffs. They seem so real as well as everything else, seem so true and could've happened to any of us in real life. For example, in one of the episodes, a guy from their childhood named Dominic came to visit. He was just got out of jail for some felony thing he did. E as the wise one had a little bit of objection on having Dom in the house Vince rented for them. He was concerned about Vince's image as the new superstar of Hollywoodland if people find out who his friend was. But Vince, over everyone else's doubt, ignored it. He felt like he was kind of owe Dom for everything that he has now. When they were in high school back then, Dominic got caught with some illegal amount of weeds which actually belong to Vince. But instead of telling the truth about that, Dom took the blame and go to jail to protected Vince as he was already labeled as trouble maker anyway but Vince wasn't. So Vince wanted to pay that back.

During his stay with the boys, everyone, apart from Vince, was like keeping their awareness awake. Anything went wrong, they looked at Dom right away. But Vince believes everything that Dom said. Dom convinced him that he was changed as he got married and has a son now. Forget about the series but I just got hit by the essence of the storyline. One thing I agree without any hesitation is, if you call yourself a friend, that means you don't question. Friends don't doubt, friends believe. Even though sometime you might find that you were wrong, that the person you thought was your friend turned out to be someone different and you barely recognized him or her, but as a friend you were kind of having no other choice apart from accept it. I mean, people change. So if you still want to call yourself as a friend to that person, than you have to bended your things a little bit for him. Or her. As for me, I do practice this belief in the way of my making friends. If you guys like questioning me, that's when I know that you were not a friend. Maybe that's why I don't really have a lot of friends. Because I was never questioning any of my friends, then I determine the same thing. I think that's fair enough. So, are you my friends? Then stop questioning!
