I got a call today. I was flattered. I rarely get calls nowadays. It turned out to be Stephanie Kong. I was flattered. Rarely do upperclassmen, especially those who regard me as an inferior junior, initiate communication with me. She asked if I wanted to study physics with Lily [Au Yeong] and her. I just about burst out in a frenzy of excitement. It was one of those things that don't happen to someone like me. Unfortunately, I had to turn the offer down. But that was the highlight of my day.
My neck really hurts from 1) the math test, 2) the physics homework, and 3) curl-ups. I think I should get a neck brace or something. I think it'd look pretty fashionable, and I could get all my friends to sign it, like a cast. It could be a great conversation piece, too, and if I need to stretch my neck, I could just take it off and do so, because there's nothing really wrong with my neck. Hmm.
Somehow I can't put you in the past. It's so much easier to forget about people when they're not around anymore. And you're like, "Duh, Gordon" and I'm like, "Well, duh, you, I knew that it was obvious. That's why I said it" and you'd be like, "Nuh-uh" and I'd just make a face at you or something. Memory is a tricky thing. Things you remember can't seem to stick in your mind and things you want to forget won't seem to leave you alone.
I've tried to play this mind game with ... my mind. I try to psyche my mind out and "try to remember" something I really want to forget. *wink wink* It didn't work. I just remembered it more. I think my mind sees right through me. I think this is kind of boring. Or really boring. So I'll stop. Sall for now.
