Not my longest title ever, but yeah... prettttty long! ;)
I'm in a I-don't-wanna-eat-anything mood today. I was going through some old photos from the good year that was 2008. Me, classmates, brothers forever, class trip to the beach, fun... you get the picture right? I miss that brotherhood. I'm not saying that I don't have good friends anymore (my friends are awesome) but the thing is, those uncomplicated days of having fun whenever we wanted to have fun are over. I mean, at uni it's gotten to a point where my friends and I can't be happy even when we want to be, as if a swarm of dementors are forever hanging over us.
This started a few weeks back, during the midterms and just after, and (predictably) involves some girls. They had been dropping hints to a mutual friend that my friends and I don't talk to them and that we're apparently 'big headed'! :S Hello!!! You don't even know us! :/ Things have gotten into a muddled soup as they usually do when girls, guys and relationships are involved, and it has got to a point where I had to write a post about it.
I really don't know how my friends (Me-shak and Y) feel about this matter, but it's deeply bothering me. I've never felt this kind of inability to just be happy and laugh my worries away. Very unnerving. And what's even more discomforting is that it's affecting my ability to think straight and write code! :/
Ok, 'nuff ranting. I hope this passes, and whatever Monday brings, I'm going to smile, be my sweetest self and laugh at everything that happens, for better or for worse! I might get slippers thrown at me, but at least I'll be laughing! :D
Ah, the social minefield that is university :-). People that pass judgement usually have a personal reason to do so; you're just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Don't let it faze you.
ReplyDeleteObviously I don't know the background to your situation, but if I were to make a wild assumption, I'd say they're just upset that you guys aren't giving them as much *ahem* 'attention' as they'd like ;-)
Pseudo - Heyyy! :D Ahaha, you must have a load of experience on this issue nuh? ;) And on the 'attention' thing, I never really thought of it that way... Wow, you could be right! :/
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, Pseudo! :)
Chill, Chavie. Uni life just started. Things will get better, girl-boy relationships and peace of mind included :D
ReplyDeleteDear Chavie...I didnt know that this problem affected your coding..I feel deeply sorry for you!!wish I could give a dose of "I feel good" or"Eisenstein of coding "portion....Brother dont worry we'll get through this!!! And I like this post!! and all the best with miss D ;) ...
ReplyDeleteChavie, I'm trying man! I mean we did our part, no? we added em up on fb and we say hello and all that. We can't force our selves on to them!
ReplyDeleteI had a issue with just one woman, U_______! since i broke the ice and fixed some issues for her, I guess I'm Okay now! We'll do some thing about it, chill mate,
For the rest of the awkward days we are going to have at Uni:P
Cheers!
Losh - Haha, I hope it does! :D Thanks!
ReplyDeleteY *ehem* - Ah, but my coding still kicks butt on a good day! ;) lol
And you know I'm not interested in her, right?! lol :P Thanks, we're in this together so let's figure something out! :)
Meshak - Haha, exactly man... It's not like we're the ones who wanted to talk, is it? :D
Hahaha, the famed BI syndrome! :D Ela ela... things better get good or I'm gonna stop bothering! ;)
Cheers man! :)
Sigh.... wish I was back at Uni!
ReplyDeleteAngel - Haha! Wasn't it there that you threw tea at somebody? ;D
ReplyDeleteNow I'm bit confused here.. now who is this Miss D? ...If difficult to answer, Is it only she or a bunch of people that bothers you..?
ReplyDeleteKirigalpoththa - Miss D is someone that *ehem* my friends feel that I should go out with! ;) She is a part of the group of people who are sorta bothering me... This post looks really really lame in retrospect! lol :D
ReplyDeleteok..Just smile and take it easy :)
ReplyDeleteK - Yep, did that this week. Less tension, more peace of mind! ;) lol
ReplyDeletei can relate! i miss the good old school days like crazy.. life was so easy back then.. u didnt need to take time out to try and have fun! fun just happened.. damn i miss it!
ReplyDeleteAh this issue. It's even worse in the corporate environment kiddo. Uni is where u learn to deal with it and be prepared for what is yet to come. Just be urself. hugs :)
ReplyDeleteIsis - I know... And you never appreciate it much till you've lost it and you start looking back... Sad how that goes! :(
ReplyDeleteCadence - Hehe, well I'll consider myself warned! ;) The current situation as it stands is again back in square one, since we tried everything and they were all smiles one day, but then they started ignoring us so we've happily given up and started officially not giving a damn. Not the most grown up way to go about it but we have better things to worry about than that. And I feel much better about the way things are now. Strange! hehe :D
