Cleaning out.

27.11.05

The time has come to pack up my room. Time to throw out all my small junk knick-knacks, used paper, tutorials, past papers .. and so on.

Yup the A's are over. And with it, the ASEAN journey. That, of course encompasses the friends, family and perhaps .. rivals too? Perhaps too strong a word.

I was out shopping today.. [ more like im out shopping everyday~!] and just thinking about all the friends here. How sometimes we can just click and be comfortable with some people and how with others we just cant. Sometimes conversation just flows with certain people, regardless whether i've known them for 10 years or 10 minutes. You just KNOW what to say and that its okay to say it. you dont have to wreck your head thinking of stuff to say. Well okay, of course you think a little, but it comes easy. The easy going enjoyable kinds are: -

a) someone you just met so there are a bazillion things to know and generally, both parties and listening with interest to each other. Means, both listen eagerly and share too.

b) someone whom you can switch to your entertainer mode on. Means, you talk crappy silly stuff and keep other party laughing, adding in comments between the laughs.

c) keep-slamming-each-other-and-laughing mode.

d) someone you dont really know very well, but for that particular reason feel okay telling him/her about the troubles, bitch abt ppl and their habits, confess a fear/cruel deed. Means, the listening view and OThEr view on the situation.

The above are just a few kinds that i encounter. Maybe the last one isn't really suitable to be dubbed "enjoyable" if you're talking abt depressing stuff. But sometimes things just irked us, and we dont mean be unkind in saying them, but its just ANNOYS LIKE CRAZY!! And some stuff you dont really mind, and you just wanna laugh it off.

Then the difficult situations: when people pick on stuff you say forcing you to watch what you say, when they're over-sensitive, when they dont want to listen but talk instead when you try to say something, when they're insensitive to what you're saying, when they lack response so that you just dont know how to continue. i must say im usually guilty of the last situation most, though i have adopted the other attitudes before as well. At times, i just stone up to what people are saying. Its a pretty rude thing to do, and i realised from listening to my cousin talk to my dad the other time, that actually various tones of "ah" and "ha" will suffice! Haha, i know this sounds stupid, but it really works! hee hee... but might sound a bit beng/ lienz. It just shows your listening yeah. Oh another thing is the agreeing with one word bit:- yuppers, correct, i-think-so-too!, eh-yeah-horr, ya-yahh.

hehe. And in any case, if you cant click with the person after several attempts.. just dont hang out the person la. [-- eh if you're reading this and think im avoiding you, pls ar! Don simply think nonsense, its could just be our busy schedules,, ahem.. A LEVELS. Or maybe not. --] . im just recalling seeing someone switch to another group of friends after ... realising its no point to pour so much effort to fit in?

In the end we all end up adapting to the group, cause we would only last with a bunch we are most alike with. Able to comprehend the reactions, tolerate the habits, understand the language [VERY GOOD> absolutely pulchritudinous!], give allowance to each other.

Because all we want is to be accepted.
