What a week.
A week of school has passed. Mine was full of mood swings. I was much hated by pretty much everyone.
On Thursday, I had my first Mandarin class. I was pretty nervous at first. There were 2 other students who were from my course, Kadir and Stephen. Stephen joined the class because.. let me tell you his story.
He was on attachment. A patient asked Stephen for his slippers in Chinese. Instead, Stephen passed him a blanket. Hahahah. And the patient cursed him until don't know what. So he joined the Mandarin class to find out what the patient was cursing.
So anyway, the class was pretty interesting and absolutely hilarious! It was totally filled with laughter cuz it was funny when we tried to pronounce the Chinese words.
The class ended at 8pm and in the bus, I made a friend, a guy who was in the same class talked to me. So we talked. He's nice.
On Friday, something weird happened. Lia and I were talking about a certain someone, when there was a feeling of nostalgia or something, with all the peace and quiet and breeze and greenery around us, when suddenly, that certain someone SMS-ed me, out of the blue cuz it's been some time since we've contacted each other. So I was like "Woah! Was he spying on me?" or "Is he psychic?".
Well, this certain someone was Wilson. He asked me if I wanted to see what Astronomy Club was like. It took me some time to decide and I need quite a lot of assurance that he really wanted me to come along. So in the end, I did go along. The nearer the time came for me to meet all the other members, the more I dreaded it cuz Wilson wanted to leave me alone, forcing me to make friends. But see, I'm shy. It's just my nature. So I was nervous and angry to a certain extent. He made me feel and think that I can't make friends. Then we went to Republic Polytechnic for a lecture on Astronomy. It was interesting but I know next to nothing about astronomy. I don't even know what the planets are. But I had fun laughing though. The members are quite friendly. Especially this guy called J or Jay? And this girl who was with me almost the whole time. She's really friendly. And this other guy who knows Boon Yen. He's cute. I mean he has this adorable face la.
And Wilson was.. hahah a teeny bit irritating with his space worm and space handkerchief. But I didn't mind. He likes scaring me. Anyway, I was quite happy to see him. Missed him, I suppose?
I got home at about 12 midnight. The whole day, from morning to that night, all I had was a small cup of milo. But who cares, right?
Today, Saturday, I went out with Lia and some other Year 1s and some lecturers from my course to Geylang. It was like a cultural outing or something. So we went to the bazaar to see the stalls there and stuff. It was HOT. And I needed a drink badly. But I had to wait until the break fast time to drink. The things I do to get CCA points. I'm just hungry and greedy for CCA points. If only I signed up for stuff way back when I was still in the first year. Anyway, I made new friends too!
You might realize that I wrote "I made new friends" quite a few times. I'm trying to like shove the fact to his face that I CAN make friends. Well maybe more like acquaintances. I need more time to be really friends with them. But I know I can.
Anyway, I'm suddenly very interested in volunteering for stuff. Especially if it's interesting and can earn me CCA points.
And who is giving me all the hugs? I'm really curious but it's also nice not to know. But if I know the person, maybe I could give a hug back? But if I don't, I wouldn't mind either cuz at least I know someone out there likes me.
I don't feel special when I'm with you anymore. I'm no different than your other friends, am I?
