A Summer afternoon in Schwarzsee

A hodge podge.

Well I was telling Ain what happened today and she said that it probably is the difference between JC and Uni. The Uni is so huge, you're always making friends.

So here's the story:

Last semester, I accompanied Ain to the YIH CBLC to print some of her stuff. Being year 1s and all, we were pretty kental because we didn't know how to use the printer and all. And as usual, we were being very noisy about it. In other words, we were slenger and kental. Plus the both of us were to scared/shy to ask anyone how to use the printer.

So that's that.

Today, as usual, I was at kentridge terminal waiting for 189 and someone tapped my shoulder. So I turned and the guy said "Assalamualaikum." So I answered and he started asking me how I was and stuff.

I think he sensed that I was puzzled so he told me "Remember, I saw you at YIH while you and your friend were printing, but takut takut?" It took me a while to recall that situation and after a while I did remember and I was really surprised that he remembered me.

So he asked for my name and we started talking. He was doing his PhD in Econs and he's from Ghana and he was telling me how happy he was to see Muslim brothers and sisters around etc etc. He even asked about Ain. I'm amazed at his memory, really.

But wait. Hes African, so HOW on earth did he understand Malay, since Ain and I DID make a huge fuss about her being scared to ask. Turns out that he did his degree in KL! We took the same bus home because he stayed just beside Ginza Plaza. So before he alighted he left me his card (WOW I DIDN'T KNOW PhD Candidates get namecards!) and told me to give him a buzz whenever I was free for lunch.

I mean. I'm sure its all decent and no ulterior motive but sorry man, I'm just not the kind of girl who would ring up an acquaitance for lunch. Don't get me wrong, but Umar's a really nice and baik guy. Its just not me to you know, call up some guy and "Hey, you free today for lunch?" Unless, of course he's a close friend.

I mean I have 1001 reasons why I DON'T want to sms/call him, but the first reason is just because. 2nd, 3rd, 4th reasons are the more complex ones. haha.

Haha. So that's just basically it. On a different note, this is probably why I'll never be going out for a date because I'll just wait and wait and wait for the guy to ask. If he doesn't, then he doesn't. haha. I'm so weird, I know.

Whatever it is, I love making new friends! Woohoo!

Plus its funny how I'm always making friends at bus-related places. On the bus, waiting for a bus, etc etc. haha! Well whatever it is, its always a good start. :)

Yessaahh. Although I did make a fool of myself trying to figure out where the Master switch was. Lucky no one was in the LT to witness it.

I was chosen to be in the FOC Comm! Well I know it will ultimately be fun organising it, I'm just trying not to think of the workload. Yet. Yessahh, my keropok amal duty partner Maly is heading FOC for PBMUKS. Baik Maly.

I dragged Diatch into the Comm as well. Woohoo! Well I told her we could sleep together and she got excited. Haha. Told you everyone wants to sleep with me. Haha. Okay forget I said that.
