Hi and welcome to the board.
Why wait for your friends? To be honest my first trip I went on my own, did hardly any research BUT I had a unforgettable time. I am going for my thrid trip in a little under 3 weeks and again on my own (last trip was with a friend). Thailand is a safe country for the most part just keep a good head on you and you'll have no problems at all.
If i were you I'd be on the internet now sorting out flights. Do some reading on here and if you decide to head to Phuket make MTB one of your first ports of call. Just relax and enjoy yourself.
