the person i'm addressing this post to prolly wouldn't be reading since she is always very busy. but i'll just say it anyways. i know you are distracted enough yesterday during irene's birthday with zh-male (not zh-female) and most of the other jie mei gossiping about it. you don't hafta feel sad or confused just coz we leave without a word. don't always blame yourself for what others do/say. IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT!!! i know you cherish your friends and it's a good thing but you shouldn't expect too much from us. i've told you before. i've explained it to you. but i can't change your mindset for you. you've got to help yourself.
ok. for all those confused, we planned a surprise birthday party for irene yesterday evening. it was supposed to be a ktv session in the afternoon but pq started her 1st day of work yesterday so we had to change it to dinner at 85. irene was very easily contented and despite all the attention being diverted to 2 other speculated pairs, she enjoyed herself. or so she says. irene is someone who doesn't let her thoughts drift too much so she might not even realize she wasn't the center of attention that night. many people said ignorance is bliss so i guess it's true.
the dinner was all fine and dandy but dragging towards the end, it was getting bland. all the girls were doing was just sitting around and chit-chatting. it was ok at first but nearing 9, me and xz was kinda bored. when we asked them if they wanted to do anything after this, they were all like "yea yea! let's go take some pictures!!" and just sat back to talk. the ones with cameras didn't even bother to whip out their devices to put the plan into action. the ones with cameras don't have much memory left to take pictures. we asked them time and again but always "yea yea! let's go take some pictures!!!" and not bothering to move from their spots. an hour passed. i asked xz "if we were to just stand up & prepare to leave, would they bother to listen to us?" so we did and it wasn't until xz asked them for the last time (standing up and all) that they noticed we are ready to leave. and they were still going on about taking pictures. exasperated, me and xz left without a word. (i mean, what else are we supposed to do, wave our arms around and announce our departure to the rest of the world while they try to convince us to "take pictures"??)
when i took a backward glance as we left the vicinity, they were standing--but still not moving. we heard the sound of running flip-flops and vivi was coming towards us, saying why we didn't call her when we were leaving. it wasn't long before xz received a call. i can hear from xz's voice she was quite pissed during the conversation. soon after xz hung up her call, vv's phone rang. lan had worked her magic, making vivi torn up between leaving with us (and ultimately reaching home earlier) and going back. but lan's magic or otherwise was too powerful and vv went back to them, leaving me and xz. i guess her loyalties will always lie with lan.
so we left early. i don't have the mood to drag endlessly with the rest of them and xz is pretty angry at their inability to make up their minds but this'll always be what happens when a large group of girls go out together. i don't blame anyone for what happened last night, however badly it ended up because me and xz left. in fact, if i were to blame anyone, i would blame myself. i was the one who suggested it didn't i?
when i got home, turned on msn. to my surprise, some of those eating with us in 85 were already home. (we met joel, evon and derek btw) after a few rounds of "questioning" derek, i found out that they all left after us. now kids, what does that tell you? we've ruined the mood for everyone and no one wanna "take pictures" anymore.
it's a good thing no one knows about my blog coz with all the rantings & bitching i've been dishing out here, i'm gonna be even less close to the empire than i already am.
...oh? i've never mentioned about this? it's a story for another time then...
