Last night was fun. Well, it was fun in that mechanical I'm-with-friends-having-fun kind of way. It was me and a couple of my closer friends and then a few people I don't know well but who are nice. We were of course ratioed one guy for every two girls, but that seems to be normal. There is a shortage of nice friendly guys where I live.
We just sat around all evening in the big park near my house - it's called South Park ^__^. Seriously, if you translate the name it has in the language here, it means South Park. There's a big wooden pirate ship in it, and that's where we hung out most of the night- and made a lot of noise apparently, since at 3AM the police came and told us to clear off and go home. We, being good kids, did.
There was nothing particularly remarkable about the evening except some scraps of info I picked up about certain matters: There's this guy I used to like, let's call him Mark. We were sort of friends with benefits. And then I got into a relationship with someone, so it all stopped. This was way before Mike. But I never really got over Mark - to this day I get fluttery feelings when I'm with him and I feel these electric surges sizzling between us [I doubt he feels them though...]. Recently Mark has started going out with this girl at my school whom I don't know very well- she's nice enough I guess, but personally I don't think she looks all that and it's weird to me that Mark would go out with someone who isn't hot [I'm not hinting that I'm hot, cause I'm not - he didn't go out with me, see?]. But anyway, they both suddenly declared love for each other and have been shouting it quite annoyingly from the rooftops for the past couple weeks.
BUT, I talked to Libe, a good friend of mine who's also friends with Mark's gf, and apparently she doesn't really love Mark, she just wants commitment or something and it seems she can't stand how gooey Mark is with her. Mark, who's got an ego that can light it's ciggerettes from the sun it's so huge, would so deserve to be dumped. Though seriously, it doesn't really seem like he's in love either. It's more like they just decided that they should be together or something.
Oh, by the way - you know how I was supposed to be seeing Mike yesterday and all? Well, I didn't. Of course. He had a doctor's appointment this morning. I still found a way around that, saying that I could sleep while he got up and went to the doctor or something, but nooo, his mom decided that since we met over the weekend, we don't have to meet so soon again. I don't understand that AT ALL, but whatever. Mike seems to be the kind of guy who doesn't like to argue with his parents too much. Of course, I'm not there when he argues with them, so I don't know, it just never seems like he tries that hard to get what he wants or whatever.
I told Mayu about my resolution to be upbeat and less whiney about Mike and she laughed at me. It was so sweet - she said she would be complaining as much as me and more if she were in this situation, and that she wasn't sick of it and that I have every right! It made me feel so happy to know that she really truly doesn't mind my constant complaining. That still doesn't mean I'm going to drop my resolution, but it's good to know I can still rant if I want to.
Mayu's at Daniel's house now. I convinced her to go. She said it was mean to go without me when we'd planned to meet the four of us, but I convinced her, mostly because their relationship is so amazing that they deserve to spend as much time together as they can. And also, this way, I get new stories about Daniel's sweetness, and so I can live vicariously through her, as I've been doing lately.
I started emailing with my brother's girlfriend again. She's so nice, I really like her- but I don't understand sometimes what she's writing about- partly because I'm ignorant and partly because she has this way of writing that's totally amazing and amusing, but sometimes the humor is too complicated for me. Talking to people like this always makes me feel that I'm not as intelligent as I'm supposed to be. I was in a program for gifted [whatever that means] kids, and I finished highschool math two years early, so I'm supposed to have a sort of hugh IQ or whatever, but I always feel stupid beside people like her. I don't really mind that much though- it's probably good to be humbled by someone like her after feeling like I'm above half the idiots I know: something to keep the balance and stop me from being too cocky, right?
