I've been running everywhere this few days and I don't think I'll stop until school reopens. It's kinda tiring considering how I have to be out the whole day. I'm getting sleepy just thinking of how I have to wake up at 7 tomorrow. My biological clock is really screwed up now. I go without sleep for 24 hours and sleep for 12. But oh well, biological clocks can be readjusted, holiday time can't be earned back. :D
Today was Wesley's birthday party, which was the weirdest party I've been to. Ever. Why, you ask?
Well, maybe because it WASN'T a party. It just felt like some kind of gathering. I assure you parties and gatherings are most different.
You see, we have a problem. No, correction. Wesley has a problem. Apart from his Primary school classmates and 4-5 peeps, he has no one else to celebrate his birthday. Which is sad.
And considering that he came from Catholic High Primary, his party really is just a gay orgy in disguise. No females to celebrate with him at his party at all. Which is sad. (I've suddenly realised that my past couple of years of birthdays have been spent with girls. I figure that my birthday should be a man's thing from now on. Only me, guys and beer. No, not like Wesley's.)
And his birthday party was kind of a flop. Considering that the reason why we attended was because we knew no one else would be there otherwise. Which is sad.
I really feel kind of sad for Wesley. Yeah, I know I make fun of him and all and he deserves the apparent lack of friends due to his over mugging, but as a friend I can't help but to feel for him. It's obvious he's trying to make up for the time he lost when he was mugging by inviting so many people to his party, but it just doesn't work that way.
I'm not an ardent believer of Equivalent Exchange, but I do believe that it just isn't the same when you try to make up for time you lost to working. Building bonds isn't about holding one mass event, it's about slowly accumulating experiences together. Obviously, travelling around the Bermuda Triangle (A term I created to make fun of Wesley. The BT consists of Home, School and Tuition Centre) isn't going to help at all in doing so.
Take me and the Tyrants for example. I still remember the first day I was introduced to them by Caleb. I can tell you I don't normally remember events unless they're important to me. It was goddamn obvious that the friendship between them was far past the obligatory friendship level. I was the youngest in the group (and I still am) but no one really cared about that. They didn't give a damn about me until I proved myself to be someone worthy of being part of their group. But once they did accept me, they opened up and so did I. It wasn't easy, but we did it. I know I don't normally talk about things in such a wussy manner, but believe me, I'm already trying my best to put things in the least wussy way.
Right now, I have friends behind me who I can trust my everything with.
Do you?
No, don't answer my question so quickly.
Do you, really?
