Saturday, October 18

You know we're moving along..

Today was interesting and fun!

woke up late as usual.
typical saturday morning.

followed by breakfast and so on.
til about 3 pm where i watched a show on tv.

"Little Manhattan".

its about these two young kids aged 10 & 3/4 (B) and 11 (G)
who were like classmates from kindergarten to 4th grade.
they werent really close to each other cos when children are young, they tend to not hang out with the opposite sex.
so one day, B (i forgot his name) was put into karate class or something, so was G (i forgot her name too).

and on the first lesson, they were instructed to take a partner to practice sparring with.
all the other kids were taken and there left B & G.

at first, B felt really awkward cos he wasnt really close.
when they met in school, they treated each other as per normal.
which was like not knowing one another.

after a few more lessons, they started to go out more and basically, have fun!
they met up alot and B even showed G around Central Park when G's sister had a birthday party and B was unexpectedly invited.

They started to hang out alot and B suddenly felt something for G.
Love.

B invited G over to his house where they practiced and stuff.
B almost kissed G when she kicked him over and .... yknow stuff like that happens.
but he didnt, he wasnt ready yet.

B & G then looked for an apartment for his dad to move in as he and his wife were like "divorced". But they delayed the signing of the papers and stuff and so live with each other.

B & G then took a subway to the apartment they were looking for and took a long time getting there. They checked out the house and that was a cute part becos they were standing at the balcony with a romantic treetop view. Two young "lovebirds".

Anyways, the next day, during Karate lessons, there was a new guy that came and he was like supposedly more handsome than B. Lets call him B2. As there was one newer student, the whole class' groups were re-arranged.

B2 had taken over B's partner, G. B wasnt happy about it and kept watching B2 having fun with G. After class, they made their way home and B asked G if she liked to hang out sometime but G rejected as B2 had ask her to practice with him.

B went home jealously and was sorta sad, but G said she would call him. B didnt know when so he waited and waited. When she did call, he picked up the phone and answered.

G asked B out if he liked to follow G's family out for some concert thingy about the best singer in New York. He agreed and the next day, he got dressed and left.

At the Concert (it was more of a dinner-concert thing), they were all seated. When the guy started singing. The parents turned back to look and B suddenly felt the courage to hold G's hand. He placed his hand over hers and she held his tightly.

They both looked at each other smiling til G let go. That was only done as both had experienced they're own sweaty palms. (At first i thought she didnt quite like it)

On the way home, B and G were standing face-to-face. B wanted to say what he's been dying to say and dying to do. Kiss her.

He knew that Kissing couldnt wait as she had only 4 more days til she had to go for camp, which'll eventually lead her to go to some private school. So on the spot, he quickly placed his lips over hers and backed away.

She was stunned at what he did. He thought to himself whether he did it wrong as there was a strong silence. She then said, she'll meet him again and they said they're goodbyes.

The next morning, in Karate class, G came in late and as she walked pass B. She smiled. A sign that she didnt really care that much about last night. The teacher then asked the class if anyone would like to take the yellow belt test and B immediately raised his hand. (G was a yellow belt while B was white).

He passed the sparring and moves test but failed in breaking a piece of plywood. He was knocked out subconsciencely and was taken to the hospital for an X-ray. (Really LMAO moment here cos it made B look chicken).

That night, she called B and asked about his hand. B then asked G out if she'd liked to hand out but G rejected as she had plans for the weekend. (Only 2 more days til she's gone and he cant even meet with her).

B then replied furiously thinking that she had rejected cos of B2's asking her to practice. Plain misunderstanding. B then shouted back with a "I hate you!". G replied "I hate you too!". B argued back "I HATE YOU MORE!". G hangs up phone and that was a sorta sad moment.

The next day, B had forgotten pretty much about G. He performed better in his everyday stuff.
Til evening, as he was walking home. He suddenly thought about her, and as he looked around the Billboards, he saw the words "I Love You", "Don't Leave me Rosemary" (name of G), etc.

He had only one more day to make a difference.

Saturday arrived and G had attended a wedding. (i forgot to mention) She sat there lonely in the boatclub. (place of marriage) B then ran all the way to the place and looked around for G.

B spotted G sitting all alone on the chair, looking all sad.

G looked back and saw B.

They locked eyes and walked towards each other.

G: "What are you doing here?"
B: "I came to look for you."
G:"Didnt you say you hate me?"
B: "I was lying."
B:"Rosemary, actually... I love you."
G:"(Hesitates). Im not mature to feel loved"
B:"No, thats not true. On your sister's birthday you said that girls mature faster and showed me and example."
G:"No.. no.."
B:"C'mon.."
G:"Well, im not ready. So maybe we could just be friends?"
B:"(Sad) Okay.."

I forgot what they both said between each other but in the end they both took one final dance.
As they both gracefully danced to their last, the show ended and i was like happy with the ending. At least he got to kiss to girl. At least he got to dance with her. At least he spent quite alot of time alone with her.

that show was amazing! :D

wow, my post is gonna be long becos of that show.
well anyways, after that show i called zy and asked if he wanted to cycle.

We went downstairs and then met up with shadiq after we got his bike tire pumped.
we were wondering aimlessly around dover and had cycled to the end (at newtown sec there)

The thought of orchard locked into my mind.
It was far but that would be quite and experience and fun too!

I then took lead of us 4 and we began our journey to the Botanical Gardens instead.
It was a very big deal mind you. The place was kinda far. The road there was uneven. I was low in cash.

We cycled through Ghim Moh - Holland - Botanical Gardens.

Holland:

We were cycling down the road, and let me tell you that was the most Bumpiest road i've ever cycled on. The pathway were all cracked up. Roots from nearby trees had destroyed it. It was a total mess. (Not really that baaaaaaaad, but baaaaad enough to be called baaaaaaad).

Through holland we met up with some Ramp caused by a root destroying the ground. I took a large jump over it and it was scary. I even managed to fly with my bike. The road was narrow too so i was afraid if like my brother lost control and had fallen on the roadside and then a large truck would crush him so i kept looking back.

After holland (i dont know the name of the place):

The road was much smoother but one thing's for sure. We were like cycling up a hill.
We could all feel the gravity pulling us down. And the tireness on our thighs. I think im getting cramps tommorrow.

We had taken the road where it links from holland to Tanglin Mall. A really familiar place for me cos i've been going there alot since young to play with the soapish snow.

We turned in to B.G. and stopped there for a quick toilet break.
timecheck: 6.15pm.

We had to get home by 7, so we immediately cycled home.
We reached zy's house at approx. 6.40pm.
And btw, the way home was much faster to me.

Me, shadiq and my brother then cycled home and yeah, the end of our journey.
It was really fun! The whole experience. (paiseh lah, my parents would never let me cycled out that far, so luckily we zipped our mouths).

mmmhmmm, thats about it.
thinking back about the show.

I sorta envy that boy.
And girls out there.
If you like a guy, go ahead and get close to him.
If you sense he likes you too, don't piss him off by hanging out and have fun with other guys.
It'll make him really angry.
This applies even if you're already in a relationship.

"never hang out with other guys when you already have one."

&

"never leave an impression that you like the guy if you really dont."

take good care everybody!

:D
