Recently, chatting with a friend of mine, while we talk about what’s been going on in our lives, what’s our plans for the coming days, about the past as to how it was fun when we were surrounded by friends and stuff when he suddenly sprung all kinds of questions on me…
And know what? He said that treating me to dinner was my birthday gift so I took advantage of that and ordered expensive ones. But then again, the best gift was talking, asking, and listening to me the whole night. I appreciate it. Thanks!! Below are the conversation we had.
About the Past
Him : “What about friends? New AND old ones.”
Me : “Well, I have a few minions in University at the moment. We have fun 😀 and tend to stress out a lot together…especially at my house…The old gang? not so much, hardly even message them anymore. Only for greeting them happy birthdays and celebrations or when we wanna hang out.”
Him : -stares at me a while and nods- “It’s sad isn’t it? Branching off and leaving old memories behind?”
Me : -Looks back seriously- “Yea it is, but then again, memories of the past are never lost, just locked away in a secluded part of the heart. That’s what makes it so memorable, hmm?”
Him : “If you’d have gone back to redo it again, would you have chosen your past or your present?”
Me : -Ponders a while- “If I went back in time to follow my past, I wouldn’t be studying what I’m studying now, my dream, and wouldn’t have met new friends and wouldn’t be me anymore…If I did go back, I’d let it be the way it’s suppose to be and continue on.”
Him : “Would you say your past is more important than your present?”
Me : “I would say my present is important as well as my past because soon, my present will be my past and what is important now, will still be important after.”
About Relationships
Him : “And hows your love life coming along, Jess?”
Me : “It isn’t…it stopped about a week or so ago actually.”
Him : -Stares at me- “Did it?”
Me : “Damn your eyes, you knew it ended the day he wanted to leave me…”
Him : “But you didn’t let him leave you. So what happened?”
Me : “I don’t know. It’s one of those times when you know it’s suppose to be a wonderful relationship and then you find yourself at the other side of the ravine.”
Him : “But that doesn’t mean you can’t find a bridge to closer the gap.”
Me : “But I couldn’t. In fact, the space became wider and wider until I couldn’t see him anymore. It sucks…”
Him : “What caused it to widen, Jess?”
Me : “As if you don’t know! -pifs- Twas the assignments, the classes, the everything. I kept getting sicker and tired by the end of each day that I couldn’t even get on to see him.”
Him : “So is that why you broke up?”
Me : “No, actually, we didn’t break up. He left me. He found that I blocked him on MSN. Like OMG, it’s just a “a-while” blocking!! He’s so EMO!!” -Shakes in anger-
Him : “Calm down, Jess. Remember, I’m your friend, we confide in each other right?”
Me : “Hahaha, you know you’re not JUST a friend, you’re my humblest, most oldest slave I have ^^”
Him : “Haha, that’s true. But seriously, what do you plan to do now seeing as you’re single and on the market again.”
Me : “you make me sound like a fish D: and I don’t think I’ll deny it when someone ask if I were single and neither will I announce it (other than on my blog that is, seeing as how I’m reporting this real life conversation) to the world that I am.”
Him : “Are you feeling any regrets then? About him leaving. Do you still like him?”
Me : “I never liked him. I loved him, actually. I won’t say that I am glad that the relationship is over. But I’m not sad about it either. In fact, it’s just a neutral feeling.”
Him : “So wanna go out with me on a date sometime? 😛”
Me : “Not a chance.”
Him : “You mean I’m not good enough?”
Me : “You’re awesome, but then again, I wouldn’t want to risk the wrath of your honey X3~”
Him : “Hahaha, I wouldn’t want to lose her too 😀”
About Studies
Him : “So how are your studies?”
Me : “It’s fine.”
Him : “Doesn’t sound so fine to me.”
Me : “Well, aren’t YOU the psychic.”
Him : “Nah, I’m just your slave. And being your slave means knowing everything about you.”
Me : “Oh yeah?”
Him : “Yes, master~”
Me : “Good boy XP~”
Him : “So back to studies.”
Me : “Sheesh, you sound like one of my lecturers. Such a one track mind guy you are.” -Shakes head in disgust-
Him : “That’s me all over. So stop stalling and spill.”
Me : “Yes, your slaveness~”
Him : -Grins- “Oh stop stalling already!!”
Me : -Pifs in frustration- “Oh fine!! It’s okay but for the fact that there’s intergroup conflict in my assignment team.”
Him : -Leans forward like an eager child- “Ooo, conflicts, now that’s more like it. Tell me more.”
Me : -Laughs and whacks him- “Well, since this semester started, it was also the beginning of our downfall.”
Him : “Sounds like a story. Does it have a princess and happy endings?”
Me : -Whacks again- “I thought you wanted to hear the story!! So hush up and listen!!”
Him : -Wards off attacks- “okay, okay, my master.”
Me : -Clears throat and sips at drinks- “No, there isn’t any princesses or happy endings. Just 4 irritated females and an irritating old man. Anyway. the old man, CW likes one of the girls, WL, and decided to confess to her. But due to the fact that WL finds nothing, absolutely nothing to admire about CW, she blatantly avoided him for days until she decicded to reject him.
After the rejection, the mood in the group changed drastically. The four girls have begun a discrimination campaign against CW due to his sudden moodiness. At first, all 4 girls didn’t want to embarrass him when WL rejected him. But it turns out that he wanted a fight. He fought every group decision which caused all the 3 other girls to lose their cool and find every reason to fight him.
So later, during assignments, the four girls gave CW as LITTLE tasks as possible so that there was minimal contact. However, CW even managed to fuck those up too. And during the last presentation of the semester, just because all 4 girls rejected his slides due to the fact that the tutor wanted a short presentation slides that were to the point whereas his were like…NOTES!! He has this irrational belief that we sabotage his presentation results and went behind all 4 girls back and complained to the tutor.
“Excuse me, Mr. I’m-a-pussy, you didn’t do any single thing in the LAST assignment.” And now he is complaining about one of us and you know how it is. You tell on some one and that person would have lower marks just cause you don’t like them. But the 4 girls didn’t do that. Oh no…he was the one. The person who contributed the LEAST!!! My fucking gawd…he should GROW UP!!”
Him : “Wow…that was just…WOW!” -Claps-
Me : “Why thank you my humble slave.”
Him : “I just don’t get why you all didn’t just kick him off the team or complain about him?”
Me : “That’s because we have sympathy and empathy towards this guy. Come on, we’re not that evil to kick him off in the middle of the semester.”
Him : “But he sounds like a downright bastard, to be honest.”
Me : “Yes he does. In fact, he even managed to lose J’s pendrive and NOT apologive when he first told her it wasn’t with him until he, if I may say so, afraid, when he saw J.”
Him : “Grrr, a spineless coward…”
Me : “Yes, don’t we hate ’em cowards?”
Him : “Yes, we do…”
Me : “So that’s about it XD~”
Him : “And what do you all plan to do about this.”
Me : “Sheesh, you and your one-tracked mind D:”
Him : “Why, thank you.”
Me : -Laughs and scowl at the same time- “Why, we’re gonna kick him out of the group of course. Actually, we don’t think of him as the member of our team anymore. He’ll be the downfall of us, I swear! And besides I don’t think I can live with his attitude for another 2 years 😡”
Him : “Good for all of you then. Kudos!”
Me : “Thanks ^^”
We had dinner and had fun. I really appreciate it. It just makes me more at ease to know you care enough to listen to me instead of spending quality time with your girlfriend. I’ll never forget hat you did. (Not that I can anyways since I blogged it all lol 😉 )
