Old nagging hag POSTED AT 10:10 PM Today, I "befriended" a South African girl, with huge brown eyes and cornrolls. She was wearing a lab coat in the lift at the condo. I found it rather peculiar, so since I was in a chatty mood today, I staarted a conversation. Pretty much small talk, but I was quite taken aback by how friendly she was. She's doing MUFY, and she said "I'll see you next sem in Monash!" And when I said it was my last semester here, she gasped before saying "Aww...that's unfortunate". I've since forgotten how easily I used to befriend others, to overlook their shortcomings and look at the brighter side of everything instead, to adapt to new environments and new crowds, to strike up random conversations, to go on spontaneous out-of-the-blue outings, to say hi and wave at everyone, to be uber nice and patient. I've lost all that. Appalling, isn't it? All I do is complain and be an old hag these days. I think I don't even laugh as much as I used to anymore. Yea, I miss the old times. But I'm contented with the present. And I'm looking forward to the future 'cos I know I can be better. I could have gotten into trouble just awhile ago for being in a chatty mood. Oh, definitely in trouble. Oopsy daisy. :S 2 comments
