~~Shooting for the Moon~~
Well, I decided to record down the whole story between me and my 1st love. Just in case I grow senile and die eh.
Right, the story began
Orientation:
I got a buddy called Weiqi and one fine day in feb 2004, he asked me, "Bro, wanna join CAC orientation camp as an OGL?" And I said "Yeah, y not, sounds fun."(Obviously I had to have agreed, if not it would have been end of story hehe)
So, there was the interview. I got this OGL in charge's number. She was called Jiali. It was arranged that the interview will be held at OKR, and so I went there. Before that, we had exchanged a few smses. So when she saw me, she was taken aback. Why? She said " EH! I tot u were a gal!" HAHA, her reasoning was that I typed like a gal in my smses and my name was Wee Ngee or Winnie in pronunciation. So good start eh? She was wearing a simple black top and 3 quarters. But the first thing that struck me was, wow, she has a great smile! And wonderful eyes that seem to talk to people. U ge tthe idea. I made a booboo during that interview actually, cuz when quizzed abt my knowledge of CAC, I said "Thats a small organization right?" LOL. Actually it is the umbrella org for dances and everything cultural. Meaning BIG.
From then til the Chalet:
What happened was that I got to know her better and better, in part cuz Bro Qi knew her le (She was his ogl last time) and in part cuz we clicked? Anyway, first time we ate dinner was with Qi as well. At engine. I remembered me and him ordered prata! hahaha. I was able to chat very well with her. And she was surprised cuz I am a guy. She has this impression that guys cannot chat. LOL.
So I got to know her better, and I found out she was nursing a heartache. She had broken off with this guy, called Fred, and she was very sad about it. She never once showed her sadness, thats how strong she was. But thru the phone, I'd hear her sadness and I really felt very touched by her love for him. One day while walking down the road to YIH, she told me she lost all of Fred's msgs cuz her hp data was erased when it was fixed. I told her that I'd fill up her msgs for her again. Was that the beginning?
Chalet:
The chalet was Adrian's bdae chalet. Adrian is my Key Counillor, counselor take ur pick.
It was around April. So, what happened was that she's give me msgs, instead of asking me outright. It was weird, cuz we knew we felt something, but we didn't dare say it out. We sorta danced around the issue. That night, we went for a long walk together along the beach. A few of the couple friends of ours saw us. Anyway, she talked about her past alot and I just listened. It felt nice to share her sadness. When we got back, The gate was locked and we had to climb over it. She didn't dare to jump dwn hahahah, so I had to carry her. But it was a nice ending to a wonderful chalet for me. I remembered me and Qi caught a crab lol. FUN
Movies:
The 1st movie. Hmm, I really can't remember, but I definitely remember the movie in which we first held hands. It was DAWN of THE DEAD. Damn scary movie! LOL. I felt so blissful. LOL. And it was sweet u know. Cuz everything was so spontaneous. On the bus ride home, I asked her wanna lean on my shoulder and she shook her head at first. But after awhile, she did lean over and fell asleep. It was the 1st time I felt happy. Really happy. We went on a series of movies together and I kept the stubs until recently.
Why did I like her? Cuz she was sweet, innocent, kind hearted, caring towards her friends. She was a simple girl with simple pleasures. I remembered I made her a soup when she had her wisdom tooth operation. It was after the holding hands incident. Haha, my mum helped me with the soup. But I finally knew how cooking can be enjoyable. Cuz it is a joy to cook for ur loved ones.
KNS just saying out how we met and fell in love took so much time. Waiting for soccer. LOL, 3.55 Liverpool vs Arse-nal. Cont the story another day la.
