Exactly what I did today and I caught people staring at me as I walked down Orchard. I probably looked like I was in a daze or something, listening to my ipod and just staring into space and walking at the same time.
Anyway, so I collected the Sociology textbook from a senior at Bugis. He asked to meet at somewhere convenient and I said town without any hesitation because TOWN IS CONVENIENT, isn't it~? but the final decision was Bugis because I didn't want to go to NUS when I'm already dreading school and the senior didn't want to go to Orchard area. I didn't know how this senior looked like but he said he was waiting at the atm so I withdrew my money and saw this dude carrying a book. I wasn't really sure if he was who I was supposed to look for. So we just stared at each other and I stood somewhere next to him, took out my phone and wanted to Whatsapp the senior "Am I like standing right next to you or something" then thought that sounded pretty dumb hahaha I think the dude saw that I was going to Whatsapp him so he just walked over to ask if I'm Cheryl. I took the book and paid him without even checking the book because I'm not sure if it'll seem rude? Since he already Whatsapped me pictures of how the book and its pages looked like (my request lol) and I didn't want to seem like I didn't trust him or something. He asked me to check anyway so~ yup. The book was in a good condition and WRAPPED + NO FOLDS. Quite retarded but yay, I got my book@$30.
We just talked a little then I headed off to town to read - wanted to read my novel initially but ended up reading random chapters from the Sociology textbook because they seemed interesting. Went to the same cafe, sat at the same spot, saw the same staff and forgot to bring my card (again) so I didn't get member's discount (again) but I still bought my drink anyway. Tried taking a pic with my 3megapixels front camera ><
HAHAH CAN'T REALLY SEE THE HOT CHOCOLATE.
Got approached by this guy who was trying to sell insurance I think? I thought this was new because they usually approach adults so I was thinking if I looked more like an adult now hahahhahaha but it was because he saw me holding onto the Sociology textbook so he asked what course/fac I'm in and whether I'm saving any money/if I have part time jobs etc. And I realize the people who approach me always ask me where I'm heading to (when I'm alone) and my reply is always "Just wandering about" then they'll give me that look of somewhat disbelief, like you SHOULD have company when you're out in town or something lol
Shall end my post with
HAPPY NATIONAL DAY! Enjoy the hols!!!! :)
