awkward

Amazing things happen when you say yes (?)

#1

"Ada blog tapi taknak update, baik tak payah ada blog."
Well, I got a random message that sounded, well, worse than this. I am fasting so instead of counter-attack, I'd like to apologize for my laziness on updating this blog. Oh, also, thanks for your concern anyway. Yes, I am pretty much enjoying the leftover days before we are getting our asses back to classes, assignment etc.

I have loads of idea for my blog but once I am ready to blog, the ideas just went off and I gave up blogging immediately. Pardon me.

"Kenapa pergi situ je? Bukannya ada apa kat situ pun."
If my cousins (or any family members) read this, PLEASE do not ask direct questions about my trips to Tronoh in front of my parents or your parents or anybody's parents. I REALLY do not feel comfortable.
Yes, you may, however, ask me privately (but I am still not comfortable with that).

Yes,  I went to Tronoh several times already. And I am aware that few of my friends (and my parents!) are quite surprise when I mentioned number of times I've been there. Most of the time, I'll get the there-is-nothing-much-to-do-there comments. I quite agree with that. I might also suggest that maybe the reaction would be different if I replace Tronoh with, for example, Kuching or Sandakan.

Anyhow, what I've been meaning to say is I enjoy traveling but I doubt my parents would let me go further. Every time I am leaving for Tronoh, my parents will start interrogating. Once, I said I want to go to Melaka with friends and questions rained on me. Yes, I know they are worried but I wonder why their parents aren't questioning them as much when they travelled around Canada? I thought being in the country is safer as I am only kilometres away from them.

I hate being questioned like that. And I am (going to be) 20.

"..."
I had never really confess when I go through an awkward moment with someone. I did, though, few days ago. It was odd but pleasantly comforting because that person also confessed his awkwardness with me.

Yes, two people who barely know each other standing in a busy place, waiting for the same people, not knowing what to say, holding touch-screen phone and tweeting about (basically) the same thing is quite unpleasant.

But now, we're okay (plus, he even bullied me by exaggerating several untrue stories supported by his little friends - please ignore him if ever he's talking about me).

"Bila *insert name* nak masuk meminang?"
I should've just left the question there. Yes, it bothers me until now - like a meteor hits the Earth and all I want to say is, 'is it time yet?' Before this, that question was not disturbing at all. I took it very lightly but when the person who asked is a boy, and he asked in front of many other boys - it became SUPER AWKWARD. Mind you, these people are quite religious.

Well, I have cousins older than me who aren't married yet so all I could say is 'no, it isn't time yet'. However, my principle stands - if *insert name* keeps me waiting for so long, I might leave. Yes, *insert name* knows about this and (I think) he thinks that the principle is fair.

Jodoh, only God knows.



Too many 'yes' eh? Wonderful things, please come to me. He he.

True story.
