Adventures With Friends & A Lesson Learned

Wowee..this has got to be some kind of record.It's been what,17 days since I last posted? Well,like I said,comp's screwed and I can't access Blogger at home.

Anywayssss...loads happened since the last post. Let me try and trawl through it all if you would just bear with me.

Chalet

Held at Aloha Changi Resorts(a stone's throw from the Old Changi Hospital!)

It was on from 20th (Wed) to 22nd(Fri).Had a total blast.I didn't expect it to be such fun.We played games(yes games!).I was real good at charades.Watched a couuple of movies.The 1st night,we turned in only at 6am.We had rooms but all of us ended up taking the mattresses and sleeping outside together.Guys and girls.

2nd night was a bit more relaxed but it was still pretty fun somehow.Slept at night with a couple of the guys,on a proper bed this time.Left early next morning.Had a video production meeting later.

Importantly,there was something that went down that affected me personally.I had a chat with one of my class girls,Aini.She knows the whole story about how I like Roswell Girl.

On the first night,when Roswell Girl came for the BBQ,her 'friend' sent her.Not sure if it was a new guy or her old boy.But of course,the male ego came out,I got all green with jealousy.I avoided her for much of the night.It was like I was forcing myself to 'hate' her so that the fact that she was with some other guy wouldn't hurt so much.

During the talk with Aini,I founmd out for real that Roswell Girl does know that I have a thing for her AND she knows when I am jealous.How? Well,Aini says..she's a girl and girls know,they just do.I take it that it's just one of those things guys will never get about the opposite sex...how they just know.

Roswell Girl's asking how come this jealously thing has to get in the way of the friendship.In fact,I've said before that the friendship is the most trasured thing but yet my jealousy shows that I forgot about that.Thanks,to Aini's advice,I now know that I should remember that fact whenever I feel jealous and stop myself.

On the 2nd night,when she came again,this time to sleep over for the night,I was back to my usual self around her.This time,it was a little weird cos I now know that she knows that I like her.But the most telling gesture happened when I asked for a bite of her chocolate and she gave it towards my mouth for me to bite it off.Ya see,if she was uncomfortable with me,she wouldn't have done it that way.She would have hesitantly broken off a piece and handed it to me instead.That's what I think. Haha,later Aini said she was 'proud' of me for beiong back to my usual self.

Lol.

Another matter happened just recently.I was having a meeting for my CCA,rather informal.My teacher told us to take a break so this girl,a fellow Ex-co,Farah,went to her blog to her the song embedded inside.We forgot about it and left it there.When my teacher came back,she saw it and Farah proceeded to point out that links to other blogs were also there.The teacher saw my name and clicked it.
So there she was,at my blog and she proceeded to read the part about me not seeing Roswell Girl for 4 weeks and 6 days.

She then tried to guess who Roswell Girl was and asked Mrs Fields? (I bought Roswell Girl a tin of Mrs Fields brownies) and I had no choice but to confirm it.

Heh,sooo,now even my teacher knows.Rather she didn't of course but I'm not too panicked.She's cool enough a person.Whatever she feels about it,she won't let it out unless she sees that I'm affected enough to not do a proper job in the CCA.

Later on,I went to the Esplanade to catch the play Forbidden City:Potrait Of An Empress,with some CCA members.It was way cool.Even though we were high up in the 3rd level(1st row though) we managed to enjoy the show throughly.It was my first time attending such a prestigious play(other than the Act 3 performance this year) and I'd like to do it again. It was an of an international standard and I was great with the singing and acting and props as well.

After that,Roswell Girl's boy came to pick her up.She left pretty quick.Of course,I immediately told myself that I shouldn't allow myself to get jealous and I didn't.I just tried not to think about it so much.The juniors had left on their own somewhere and it was only 5 of the seniors left.3 wanted to go eat.Aini and I didn't feel up to it so we took a long walk to the bustop.

Again,I have to say that it was sincerely nice to talk to her.Told her about how I controlled my feelings when I saw Roswell Girl leaving with her boy.I'm proud that I didn't allow myself to feel jealous.Aini and I had another good talk about everything.It's nice to be able to get a girl's prespective on the issue.Never really had that before.Had fun with Aini,Roswell Girl and the rest during the Entro project and glad that I've grown comfortable with them.I have to give Aini credit for being a willing listening ear.

So there's the whole lot..and then some.Back next time when I can..no promises.
Hopefully a lot shorter than 17 days.
