I really wonder if I'm being overly friendly; too extrovert; too socialable; too bold. I don't know. I just find myself doing things that normally people won't do. It's not harmful that I do it, it's just against norm. Yet, after doing it, I really do feel much more energized and happy and just simply smile to myself. Hmm... Had this train of thought after today's SOLEAD cum Gen12ii commissioning. I was so glad to see the big crowd and was looking out for random people that I might happen to meet! And indeed, I found one who was sitting beside me at BSF class ytday! :) Was very surprised to see him. Then, I sat beside Marcus and had many good laughs and chats too! It was really fun just playing, joking, teasing him and being teased. I really enjoyed the dinner and all. It was really nice and fun! And I knew that was when he and I were high. Obviously, he was high. I've never seen Marcus that high and friendly before. As for me, it brought out the social side of me. I think my nickname "hello world" is really apt. I'm so much to that extent that just now, on the way down the stairs at BB station, I saw a guy who looks familiar. Then I just smiled and nodded at him. He reciprocated my actions. But all the way towards the bus stop, I had no recollection of where I met him until he boarded the same bus as me and alight at the same stop. So I figured out that he's probably someone that I've seen often on the bus and so recognise him. I can't believe that I just greeted someone like that. Just someone that I see at the bus often. And there I am smiling and making eye contact. Huh? Doesn't it make you raise your eyebrow? Why am I doing it? I don't know. I don't know why I'm so friendly to strangers (those that look dangerous or seem suscipious). Am I putting myself in danger? On a side note, when we alighted, he had to cross the road while I walked ahead. So we nodded and waved goodbye before we part. He was the one that smiled at me first, this time round. I guess he's open too. I wonder if I'll see him at the bus stop next time. Perhaps, I'll go forward and really speak to him. I won't be paiseh. I'll in fact be very glad to make a friend, an acquantaince! But I just hope this doesn't frighten him. And this doesn't frighten random people that I meet. Yet, this make me think if I'm doing the right thing. Am I putting my guard down too much that I endanger myself? Especially since I have no form of defence (except God) and am a girl. Hmmm....should I exercise some self-control and not be too sociable or joking with people too much? Hmm... --------------------------------- |
