The Life Here and Now
Humph! I just spent another day doing nothing. As usual, our teachers didn't feel like holding regular classes. We just had an Econ reporting, a Chem long test, a Physics discussion, and a Health forum about birth control. Life just seem to drag on when you're not having any fun at all!
Most of my day was just spent practicing for a puppet show (Mariang Alimango). I don't have to do much physical work unless you consider stretching your vocal chords too physical. Duh.
I had a bad lunch! My gosh, I had this chicken that doesn't look like it's edible, I had rice that's way too hard, and I had to wash it down with only a little Coke. I didn't even feel half full! What else is there to say.
Oh. I have to write about this gurl...
I have this classmate. I won't really write her real name. Let's just call her ALI.
Ali is this girl who is almost out of anyone's league. I don't know how she does it, but she just seems to glow. Most guys in my class treat her with this kind of detached reverence. It's inhumane at some point, and I didn't really feel that sort of crap until something happened.
I don't exactly know what happened or what started it, but our Research group is falling apart.
Maybe it's just our differences that's creating all the trouble but I think it's more. Myself and this other share so much in common. We even finish each other's sentences, for chrissakes! I didn't think it was even possible!
Anyway, when we work, we (myself and this other girl) always laugh and have fun and think like we're connected in some sort. This other girl, noticing Ali's detachment, asked her if she could join us. Ali just decalred that she isn't like us and that she doesn't feel the need to join. That left me felling.... I dunno, but this really devastated the other girl. They were best friends but along with our Res group, they sorta fell apart. That's sad. Now when we work, it's just like there's this one thing in our minds: to finish everything. No more fun. No more finishing each other's sentences. No more planning for gigs or some things. All I'm worried about is that the two girls treat each other with such cold detachment, but they don't even admit it. Gosh! What is it with girls?!
Now that we're graduating, the idea of them patching up and returning to what they once were is seriously blurry. I just hope that they realize it soon before time deteriorates the strong bond of frienship that they once shared.
