things i learned from easters

these are several things that i came across on my anzac weekend-getaway-while-joining-a-debate-competition yet again.

numero uno: i am older. i no longer share the passionate and excitement of joining, being and wanting to win a debate competition. i seem to have passed my golden era in debating. maybe im just making excuses since i was not able to break into the final rounds nor give my very best performance. or maybe i am just over it.

two: assume everyone is taken. considering previous precedent of falling for a gay dude, i came across trying to have fun and got something that is a complete failure. i realized that it is within my best interest to assume and believe that every cute and nice guy is taken. therefore, no speculations and expectations on will-something-happen-between-us idea.

three: some people are just born to be annoying. no matter how hard you try to understand and accept them. they are just that. no need to do a psychoanalysis on it. people choose their own way of living and sometimes it is just repulsive. so deal with it.

four: the im-drunk-n-safe-me trick doest work in OZ. they get drunk all the time, pretending to be tipsy in the hope of getting some "action" doesnt work. simply because they are all taken and you might not be that drunk to just pick any random guy.

five: it is useless to constantly compare your new hangout buddies with your best friends. they will never exceed you expectations, in fact, they will never be able to see you the way your best friends have. the ones you have is the best and will always be the best. this new developing relationship might have the potential to be but will never be the same in any shape or form.

six: i dont necessarily tell people that i am involved in a debating community, not even my closest friends, and i am pretty good at it. most of the time i did it because people see this community as an elitist community with snobs that speaks english all the time. second, because i prefer the public to know this by reputation instead of me bragging about it. it just sounds a lot better when someone else is saying it.
