"Do you know why I give you my number? So you can inform me when you are home since I'm unable to send you personally, this shall give me a peace of mind."
Sweet isn't it? =D
T-house chalet yesterday was crazy. Amazingly crazy. 2 stolen sips of (not ice cold) beer's nothing compared to a bottle of absolute vodka. We had raging drunks, intoxicated people laughing and behaving intimately with each other. The chalet was almost a crack house, save for the sane people which includes me. Stayed away from the alcohol (besides those 2 sips of beer-me) and had HTHT session in the room upstairs. CS was the "SDU coordinator" asking thought-provoking questions about relationships and our personal views towards related issues. Ended up thinking deeply. Most of my opinions were not being expressed but kept within myself, going with vague answers mostly. I was glad for that session of sharing because it made me gain an insight into what may be considered the "norm" as well as those little nuggets of information (hidden clauses, little details, any changes that might then influence the final decision.) Its not easy to write about this generally. We need an example!
QNS1: What do you feel about pre-marital sex? Would you engage in such an act?
QNS2: Would you accept it if your other half (dating) tells you that he/she is not a virgin?
Talk about double standards... Imagine if you answer "yes" to the second part of the first question and then go on to say that you would not be able to accept it if your partner has had sex before? What does that make you then?
Then there is the other considerations.... maybe "if he respects you", "he's not looking for sex when dating you"..... maybe the answer to question2 might change from a strict "NO" to a "maybe, depending on the circumstances".
One very interesting question that came up was "what would you do if your partner and your parents do not see eye to eye, engaging in conflict every single time and there is just no way of placating them anymore?" The answer given was a straight forward "breakup."
Seems like we are all still very traditional Chinese at heart after all. A harmonious family is still the most important. =)
Many other questions were asked and answered. Some hawed and hemmed, some gave answers indicating that they have once pondered over those questions before. All in all, it was a session that revealed much of everyone to everyone else. Based on that alone, HTHT was a success!
All those who played games with me yesterday would know just how sucky my luck has been!! Serious case yesterday. OMG the licking game. It had me in such compromising positions. EW. Compared to licking body parts, I think I would rather give a proper kiss anyday. Sick sick sick. Now i dread the photos. Gone is my reputation. =((
I found someone who felt the same way about university friends... surprised that I could identify with everything that he was experiencing. I guess I really am not alone. Its a solitary life out there... Mark my words.
Alrights. KL next week. =)
