Finally...........
I remembered I posted a post, which was titled 'Finally' too some time ago... But now, it has a totally different meaning. How the same words, can be used by me to express a totally different feeling / situation...
Should I start from the highlight? Hmm... nah....
Yesterday, spent the day with Pearl in sch studying.... at least she was... I had lectures and stuff, so couldn't really study much... Before I went for my lec, I even accidentally made Pearl's toenail come off... waahhaa.... How was I so careless? Actually, up till now I'm still unsure what happened... All I know was that we were walking out of the co-op when suddenly, I realise that she wasn't walking beside me... -_-" ... Turned back to look, only to see her in great pain... ouch... Feel so bad... Went to buy a whole box of plaster... I actually had half a mind to just hack care the queue and cut it, but then, people will complain... shit... Fortunately, turned out to be nothing that serious... =)
Anyway, after I came back from lecture, went to meet her at the library. Only managed to watch a CS webcast, and do the CS forum postings... Den went to see the palm reader at the forum (as in outside co-op that forum) and while we were waiting, we bumped into px.... wahhaa... haha... wat a coincidence... Anyway, the both of them could get along I guess... something about gals that allows them to talk to each other even though they don't even know each other.... unlike us guys, that are more reserved in general... Then came her turn for the palmist, and px tactfully excused herself... she's a fast one...
The palmist basically told Pearl very general stuff, that would apply to most gals... But, ya, what can you expect? That's what palmist do. At least, there is a good thing, that is that they will help you realise the obvious, and as they say, knowing thyself is half the battle won. After that, we doodled awhile in the library, before seeing her off at the kent ridge terminal...
So, what's the highlight then? Erm... wait... haha... not yet...
Sherning, a guy that's interested in her, or should I say mesmerised by his image of her, did some crazy stuff that night... He actually went, against her wishes, to see her parents! And talked to them about stuff like marriage and what not, even though he and her are just normal friends... Really freaked her out... Never knew that there could be such BHB (Bei Hiao Bai, or something... learnt from px) people around in the world! I knew bout this cause I asked her earlier to start studying her psychology text for the upcoming exam, and told her I'd call her later to see how she's doin... And he came and interrupted her studies, so she was so perturbed by it, that she called me up to tell me about it....
Now I know how the Kalm's gal felt when I was the one.... haha... But even I was not so BHB... I didn't go see her parents or something -_-"... The only thing I did was to pass her my hp no. and call her once, and gave her some pao1 too on one of my night's off... I forgot whether got sms her, but anyway, I think it was obvious enough when she just put me off.... sigh... But its a good thing, else I wouldn't have known Pearl... Part of growing up I guess...
Anyway, back to the story, I could see was really disturbed, so I had to 'save' her... Offered to take her out to supper, so that she could get out of the trouble she was in... Obviously, she immediately agreed, though I wasn't too sure at first, since it was already pretty late... So, I asked dad for the car (2nd time this week), and drove down there immediately... Almost got lost, but anyway, made it in one piece to her home, and allowed her to have an excuse to ask sherning to 'get out'...
So we went out for supper, at the ba chor mee stall at east coast road, and talked... about sherning and other stuff... can't remember what already.... She treated me, though I actually wanted to treat her... nevermind... my chance will come soon... After that, sent her home, and told her to continue with her studying... She smsed me 'Don't speed ah!' Trying to be funny, I said 'Haha... You go do your psychology reading and I won't speed'... Anyway, told her I'd call her up one hour later, as earlier, to check on her....
I guess this post is really really long, but as they say, patience is always rewarded...
So, at 1:35am, I called her up, to talk to her. She managed to do half her chap 1 readings, and she told me about how sherning, on top of being so BHB, after leaving her place, called her mum up to chat with her without letting Pearl know... wahhaa.... Goodness... So, I was talking to her about this stuff, and her psychology, and then the topic changed...
Pearl: I keep on telling you my troubles, but I never hear you tell me about yours (paraphrased)
Me: .......
Pearl: You always keep to yourself, and find it very hard to open up to others right... (something like that.... I really can't remember what exactly she said, but this is the gist of it)
Me: .......
After much pestering, I told her that I actually did tell someone my troubles, and that was px... Told her that I told px who I liked.... And from then on, there was no return...
She wanted px no. to thank her for the soci textbook, as well, which i'm sure is the main reason, to ask her about this issue.... So, I had to give her px's no... I'd give a friend px no. if my friend asks for it, what more her? But since I knew she was going to ask px, what is the reason to still hide? Might as well just tell all liao.... so I basically told her that the person I like, I gave her a drawing, a portrait of her, and that the person is someone she knew, and in NUS.... -_-" ... She only understood when I told her that I've only given one person a portrait of that person....
Her.
So that was it..... D-Day... And guess what...
She has liked me too, just that she was unsure about whether I felt the same way about her too.... wahhaa... Sounds so drama siah.... So with that settled, the ambiguity finally cleared, it was so much easier to tell her everything... haha... She even told me that her mum could sense it, and said 'You like Ivan ah?' when she was talking with her about me... And then she played the song for me to hear -- "Because you loved me", by Celine Dion, and said that when she heard that song, and the first person she thought of was me, not her bf, she knew something was wrong....
Anyway, we started to talk about this issue, and I read to her the poem 'Fated Never to Be'... Such a sad poem, with so much emotions.... I think it moved her... Anyway, we also talked about her current bf, whom she has been trying to break off with for the past few weeks... And we spent a lot of time, trying to figure out each other's ambiguous speech....
Pearl: I want to know what is your stand regarding this matter...
Me: What matter?
Pearl: Erm... let me try to be more direct (rephrased), I want to know what your view is regarding this matter...
Me: Erm... -_-"
Pearl: Do you have a problem? Cause I have one now. (rephrased)
Me: What problem??? -_-""
So we spent more than an hour, trying to find out what the problem is... I tot it was like, what are we going to do now, that we know we like each other.... So I was like anyhow han taming wild guesses as to what the problem is....
Anyway, somehow or another, we finally realised what the problem she was trying to convey is.... her bf... as in how should she deal with him? Cause though she has already wanted to break up with him, he still doesn't want to. So, I suggested 3 methods:
1. She tell him direct (too taxing and hard on her, I feel... and I can't help her then)
2. I tell him direct (erm.... plain weird)
3. Just ignore him all the way. (hmmm.....)
4. Get a friend to tell him. (Like a bit underhanded... as a person, he deserves to know at least, from a direct method)
After much consideration, we decided on plan 3, since she already is doing such a thing... And maybe plan 1 after some time.... or at least after her b'day, where she is bound to see him there....
After that, I dun know what we talked about already.... it was like already 5:48am or something, and I was walking downstairs by myself, then lying on the playground looking into the sky, while talking to her one the phone.... -_-" ... I half expected us both not to sleep... But when I told her what tuts I had today, she told me to go and sleep... So, listen to her =) I was afraid I couldn't wake up, so she called me up at 8:40... I've got a funny feeling she never sleep from 5:48 to 8:40... feel bad about it...
Finally....
See how things go....
But no matter what, she'll be my good friend...
