We Shall Go For Drinks...

Chinese New Year had always been alot of fun and endless gambling. This year was just weird. It's not so much that i can't go visiting or the drop in red packet collection, it's just lifeless. The gambling were boring, the people were all troubled and i eventually escaped to KL for a short break. KL was fine but i can't believe that i didn't even buy anything, not even a pair of shoes. I'm amazed with myself. I think the mood just wasn't right.

Few people came back for CNY. "Oscarised" and "Gentle Giant" were both stuck in Sydney. "NY Dweller" came back but i merely met him once to collect the shopping i managed to do sitting at home but needed him to lug it all back for me. It's weird to know that "Mr Bright" and "NY Dweller" were once schoolmates. I've always tried to keep in contact with "ND" by calling him during the weirdest hour and grumbling about everything. Until one day he went like, "you know i'm dating someone, don't you?". Well how am i suppose to know if you never mentioned it? Not like it really matter. The only difference was prior to any calls, i'll ask if he could speak. Sounds like an underground affair right. No, it's not. He's just got a ________(fill in the blank) girlfriend. If he doesn't pick up, i know his gf is just near him or he's over at her place. For God's sake, pick up the phone! I'm just a regular friend, making a regular phonecall to check if you're alright, not too stressed with work, not arguing with your gf or something.

Well he's back. We planned to meet up for dinner. Didn't quite work out. Might meet him for drinks, if he doesn't cancel it at the very last minute. According to him, i've got 2% of his time and it's a really GREAT deal. All i wanted was to catch up with you. Well, it might be better off just calling you fortnightly. At the evry least, you had time to talk.
