friends.
i watched this show on tv this morning during christmas entitled 'Harriet the Spy'.. watched the starting before once some time back but because of tuition had to tear my eyes away from the tv. the show is a total charm- heartwarming and down-to-earth.. mainly revolves around friendship and company, truth and deception, hypocrites and true friends.
Harriet J. Welsch is the spy here.. she writes everything she sees and thinks into a notebook.. stuffs which she believes and agrees on it.. stuffs which is right from the heart. well apart from her nanny, she has other friends at sch.. few to say.. dunnoe wad names, a girl and boy.
then her nanny leaves and she is left alone. but she carries on her passion, her ms. detective and aspiring ambition to be a great author with her nanny's encouragement.
she left her private notebook open to devious eyes and every single detail Harriet wrote about is spilled. personal opinions that she wrote about her friends. her bestest of all friends turn against her. the part where her girlfriend joined the other 'bad' grp after reading short simple lines like 'will she grow up into a nutcase' really made me ponder.. can friends so easily sway and turn foe overnight? are friends really to be trusted despite the faith you have in them? who knows.
everyone in class sabotage Harriet. the loner, stranded alone nowhere without friends or her nanny is left to fend for herself. there were scenes where she cry alone in bed and that makes me.. her notebook is taken away and she fights her way back. even her last 'friend' is taken away from her..
her nanny comes and visit her, giving her tips. "apologise. even though you still believe in what you wrote, a little white lie that can make ppl feel better isn't bad.." true. if it can make a big diff, why not?
she tries but her friends dun bother. but unexpectantly they back her when she volunteered to be some kind of editor for the sch's newspaper. Harriet uses the newspaper to write her thoughts and opinions once again, this time openly apologising to everyone. success.
maybe friends are trustworthy afterall.. maybe friends are still friends no matter what you did or said to them. maybe one is never alone, friends will be there for you. like the book 'The Little Prince', being alone is a blessing in disguise- you have friends supporting you from behind, and you know it. you can feel it..
