What the hell.

This happened on Monday, I think. In front of the teachers' room.

There was this girl who was in Form 1; she came to my class and asked for me. When I asked her why, she said there was this teacher who wanted to meet me. I asked her, which one ? She didn't know. Well. Understandable, I thought, because she's in Form 1 and she still needs some time to remember the teachers' names.

I relented and followed her right until the teachers' room.

And then, she stopped.
I was concerned. I asked,

Jas : Why did you stop?
Unknown : The teacher apparently wants to see you here.
Jas : And just which teacher asked for me?
Unknown : Ya know... I don't know who she actually is.
Jas : Even if you don't know, you can still recognise her by her face, can't you?
Unknown : But I don't even recognise her!
Jas : Wha........

Now this unknown called me out of class, brought me to the teachers' room, and she was wasting my time like anything. I retorted,

Jas : If you don't know the teacher, and if you don't know her name, how do you even know that she called me?
Unknown : I just came and called you, that's all.

At that point in time, I was fuming. Expletives were coming into my head. But I maintained my composure and told her,

Jas : You, go back to class and don't you ever do that again.

And guess what she said in reply?

Unknown : I'll think it over.

This unknown ran to her class and I just stood there watching her. Was she some sort of prankster, or did she really forget the teacher's name?

I returned to class shortly after, and I told all of this to my friends. I couldn't help laughing. No, I just couldn't. What that unknown did was weird. Silly. I'm known to be silly and I'm known to like silly things, but I wouldn't go to such an extent.

True Love

"Many of us have had our share of broken relationships, but what matters most is focusing on what we have now, rather than dreaming of what could've been. I often hear the saying, 'Your first love never dies.' At times we learn to forget and love someone who deserves our affection. After all, love can be nurtured at the right time and place."

Maybe so.

But to be honest, I don't mind when people ask me if I'm taken - I simply reply, "I'm single."

True, I sound like a lowlife to many, but I'm happy being single. At least, for now. Whenever I see people in school having relationships - having steadies at a young age (I'm fourteen now, and so are the rest of my classmates), I wonder how long those relationships actually last.

I've got a life to live. I've got my parents' love, and Narin's love too. I've got a job to do : I have to excel. I'm not gonna stick around and give my life for someone else. No, not now. That can wait.
