The Morning After
As it turns out, I never did see them off; because after Aileen called at 07:20 to wake me up, I fell back asleep and didn't wake again till 08:08, and missed them leaving Ed Hse on their 07:45 shuttle.
I'm really glad we'd at least spent last night together. Sylvia (Carrie's friend who is visiting from Melbourne) stayed over, and Jen was over too, taking a bath, and we all hung out in Aileen's room till past 03:00 (which was why I couldn't wake up this morning).
I feel so strange today, knowing I'm more or less all alone in Ed Hse now - till Aileen gets back, at least. It prolly hasn't fully hit me yet - the loss - but I'm missing Jaya already.
I'm trying not to think about them too much, and I want to be left alone today.
It's a gorgeous day out - sunny, and a lot warmer than yesterday - Chih texted to ask if I wanted to go climb Mt. Vic, but I don't ever want to be alone with her again. I didn't think Jen was right when she said I couldn't look Chih in the eye after that last stunt she pulled, but after having her around with the girls and me for the past couple of days, I realized Jen had hit the fucking nail on the head: I just couldn't look at her in the eye even though I think I'm over It. So I went up to school to watch Go Fish and Tongan Ninja.
Both movies are hilarious; because I was in the audio-video suite, I had to clamp a hand over my mouth and bite my palm to keep from laughing out loud. I luuurrrve Raybon Kan as the skinny Asian lackey (I think I had a crush on him after reading his columns), and there are some pretty memorable quotes too! Go Fish is great; I think it's better than Troche's Bedrooms and Hallways, even though Go Fish is less technically polished.
At the Issues Desk, I was in the line behind Baaku-sensei who I had for my Japanese class a couple of years back, and had a quick chat with him. He still remembers Jaya and me. He's a pretty sweet guy who's kinda shy. Mari, our tutor, once jokingly told us to wink at him during our oral tests, just to see him blush.
Later, after I dropped off Go Fish at the City Library, I think I had another Justin-encounter. As usual, I didn't really see him until we passed each other - which is, like, totally retarded of me because it's impossible to not see him; he's just so freaking tall.
Justin-encounters are just so weird. Sometimes, I wonder if he recognizes me. We don't pass each other a whole lot, but every time we do, I kinda get the feeling that he does recognize me - a familiar stranger. Ever since our first encounter in the Kirk L2 corridors (I was in a low-cut top and I think he might have looked down my cleavage - or what must pass off as a cleavage since I don't own any push-up bras - when we passed each other; I sorta think that was when he started noticing each time we walk pass each other), we've never ran into each other on campus again. Weird or not, I think I like our little encounters (and I jot every one down). In our last encounter, I happened to look up from watching the sweet-looking ass in sprayed-on jeans and sexy boots walking in front of me just as we brushed pass each other, our eyes meeting for a short yet suspended moment.
... Okay, that's prolly just me with a rose-tinted video-cam.
No apologies. I'm currently a single girl (nearly) all alone in the city; to survive, I need strong doses of eye-candies, daydreams and romance.
