Lazy as a CAT

I can't imagine I have been so unproductive since yesterday. My bed is really hypnotic and much as I wanted to fight, I'm totally knocked out til the rest of the day. Woke up past 7pm, turned on TV and checked my phone.. Whoaa, a number of invites! Well, why surprised?? It's SATURDAY!!!

I was munching my last bite when my friend Belle texted me to follow in Yoohoo.. (the where???!) So I prepped up, too shy to reject her again (yes I just did last 31st).. Well, dragging my ass that night was worth it coz Ron followed, a very good friend way back college, whom I haven't seen for like 5 years?? Gosh. She went to London, came back to PI yet didn't get a chance to meet! Seriously, are we like from different continents to never get a chance??? haha!

Here's where my story for the night started. Just to give you an idea, Ron is now married to Alvin - this couple started dating 2 months earlier than me and my Ex-Cager (DM's). So, what should I expect? Nothing but tons of questions! The why's, how come's, what if's, why not's, etc etc.. And tell you what, I'm sick sharing our failed love affair over and over again.. The next time I'll attend a sort of reunion like this, I better record my piece. Few hours later, I received an unexpected call from - the you know who! I was clueless at the moment why he wants to follow - then BOOM! It was all my fault.. Before I left the house, I replied to his txt that I'll be meeting with friends, Belle particularly. Hell yeah, one of my biggest mistake!  Just a tip for everyone, it's not safe to be friendly with your Ex at an early stage (texting is the quickest form of communication but don't maximize technology at this point) coz they will get, by all means, the chances to meet you and your friends.

And so he arrived. Nice shirt, nice shoes, nice scent. So him. And drunk. Sooooo him!!! But, at the back of my mind, why should I get affected by his presence? These people treated him as a friend too giving me no reason to be cold or uneasy, so I just let the hours pass and enjoyed our short chit chats. I gave my friends some sharp stares whenever called for, especially if I hear some hush hush. I caught him glancing at me several times. He even refilled some ice in my beer. I said thanks. I gave a simple smile. But this time, with no spark, with no emotions. Should I be surprised? I never thought it would be as easy as breathing!!! Yes, I really thought it's gonna be a catastrophic experience. Meeting him after several months, in front of my friends??! That was so unprepared! But it seems that I passed that night with flying colours. Well I don't really have to portray a make-believe image just to let my friends feel that I'm really OK but I guess this is how acceptance helped me. I've handled the situation naturally, in my own organized manner, pressured as it may seem. Good job right?

Realization: You may give your best to avoid seeing a person but some unexplainable clumsiness would lead you to his / her path in a weird and unexpected situation. If such things occur, don't lose your composure. Just take a deep breath, it's not bad to count 1 2 3 with fingers moving, then give that best close up SMILE! :)
