Well, finally I have the chance to update on my blog. Listening to Jay Chou new song while I am typing this. The title is Jie Kou. The lyrics of this song is damn power. Anyway, my friend Kenn commented that most of my blog are of me complaining and moaning about life. To prove him wrong, I am going to tell you guys about a small love story of mine later. Anyway, back to Kenn first. He is a very close friend of mine whom I got to know in the army. They all said that army sucks but the friends you get to know from the army days definitely won't. It is always throught the hard times that you can see what makes a person. Anyway, he had just broken up with his gf whom I know he loves a lot. Anyway, take it easy bro. I know it is hard on you. FJ is a good gal. This I got to admit that but I am sure time will heal all wounds. Cheer up. Today is your day of mourning but tomorrow is the day you regenerate yourself for the longer path ahead.
Having this stupid bad cough now. Everytime I take Gin Tonic I will end up having a sore throat. No more of that for me again. Sorry Kenn. Gin Tonic is just not for me. Give me a beer anyday. ;) Heard from some of my friends that they are actually reading my blog. This really cheers me up as I was really afraid when I first started blogging that I will be blogging to myself. Always glad to know that my friends are actually reading this. One of them is Weiguo. I had known this guy since I was 6. That makes it near to 20 years that I had know him. I sometimes find it amazing that after all these years, we are still very close to each other. Even though we may not spend so much time together like when we were young, never once did I felt uncomfortable when I am talking with him. This is the best part of having childhood friends. Cause when we were young, we were just like an open book. Friends can read us and know what kind of person we really are. But as we grow older, we began to shut our real self from the world. We became a closed book. We began to hide our real self. We became good actors. Hyprocrites even. There are times when we don't really like that person but just because we might need his or her help in the future, we got to act as if they are good friends of us. This is saddening and sick. I am not implying that any of my friends are like that but there are people of this genre out there. After going through the army and working world, sometimes the world really seems quite dark for me. Who are be your true friends and not backstabbers? You will never really know until it is too late. So thread with caution my friends. I been backstabbed before and it ain't a good feeling. You might think of revenge but what will it lead to?? More webs of decit and forgery. Sick of all that. It is just like the Emu. For people who don't know, Emu is a bird native to Australia. I was watching an episode on Animal Planet when an Emu die because it refuses to show that they are sick. It is in their nature because if you show in anyway that you are sick or unwell, the predator will hunt you down first instead of your friends. Sounds a lot like our world. Really makes you wish that you can be transported back to the past where everyone you know is innocent and without any ill intentions.
Anyway, back to my topic. I am not saying that I am Takashi Kaneshiro or I am writing this because of the movie. Weiguo should know this story. There was once when I was in Poly year 2 that I fell in love with a classmate of my friend(Weiguo). Her name was Lizhen. She was really sweet and had a pair of big watery eyes. Her hair was long and silky and she has a nice figure to boot. Everything is perfect with just one small problem. She stays in JB, Malaysia. Well, things started slowly as I was shy by nature(Still IS and I am not lying) and do not dare to make the first move. It was quite sometime before I got the chance to chat with her. One thing leads to another and she asked for my icq no. Imagine how I felt then. It was better than striking 4D(I dun buy 4D). I was so happy then that I immediately went home to wait for her to come online. I know this may seems outdated but how can I ask for her no when she is not in S'pore?!!?? In the end, she did came online and we started chatting. From normal stuff to her life and my life.
Everything was so perfect that I thought I was dreaming. We even went on a date to catch a movie once. I still remember the title of that movie. It was The Sixth Sense. Close friends of mine should know that I don't really like watching scary movies. I even had to put on a brave front in front of her. Anyway, nothing runs so smoothly in life. Turns out that she had a bf and she is undergoing some serious trouble with him. She began to pour out all her woes to me everynight when we chatted on Icq. We even started to call each other at times. Sometimes she will call me but most of the times it was me who did the calling. Anytime she wanted to chat on the phone, she will paged me(No Hp then, it was 1999 ok?) and leave a message. I tried my best to resist her as I know that nothing will come out of it. She still have feelings for her bf and I was like a life bouy then. Anyway, it was then that I decided to give her a surprise out of the blue. Her favourite movie at that time was Xin Dong(Tempting Hearts). I went out to buy the soundtrack for the movie and also a book on how the movie was produced. I think it cost me a bomb back then. After buying it, I went straight to JB with only her home no and without informing her.
After reaching JB, I went straight to her workplace to look for her. Imagine how shock I was when they told me that she was off on that day. I immediately paged her to tell her that I was in JB now and looking for her. I waited for abt 1 hour plus but she never page me back. I was so disappointed that I went to shop at Holiday Plaza. It was then that my pager started beeping. Turns out that I was too deep inside JB and that's why I never receive her msgs. I felt like killing myself then. I went to listen to it and turns out that she was helping her friends do some stuff and was only able to meet me later at her workplace. In horror, I immediately went back there to look for her but she was gone. I paged her and turns out she was at Holiday Plaza cause she knows that I will go there and buy pirated games(I am a cheapo). I immediately rush back there again but still can't find her. I was thinking that she might have went back to her workplace to look for me again but I decided to search for her. I searched for abt 30 mins and I was about to give up when out of the blue, someone patted me from behind. I had finally found her. :) We were at opposite end of the building and it was only when I went out of the building to take a break that she saw me. She was waiting at the exit. ;)
I passed her my gift and also apologized for causing her so much trouble. I was so glad and happy when she told me that it was ok and she was just shocked and surprised that I will really go and look for her. We chatted abt me going over to her for dinner before but all along it was in a joking manner. We ended up having dinner before I made my move home. Love at that time was so innocent and sweet I think. Well, I think my blog is getting too long. Will tell you guys what happened to us in the future. Congrats to people who see this line cause it shows that u are a really patient person to be able to read up till here. ;P
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
