Midori

Yesterday, went to Amcorp Tower in PJ to pick up my certificate for attending one Oracle training. Made an appointment with the guy, but when I reached his office, the people there said he wasn't around, and they weren't aware that I was coming. So, I waited for them to find my cert. While waiting, I read Norwegian Wood. Luckily for me, I bring a book to read anywhere I go. So I didn't mind waiting. About the book, I like the character Midori, the most. She's cute, adorable and extremely naughty. The last part's the reason I like her so much. Midori is the hero's best female friend, well, one of his platonic friends, at least.

Speaking of which, I used to have a couple of close female friends along the years. The first one I think would be the one I had in uni. We used to meet up everyday and chat about stuff. We used to go out for movies too. I liked her as a friend, but I don't think we could have been a couple. I don't know why, but I just wasn't attracted to her that way. Then one day, we broke up, as friends, I mean. Or, actually, I just stopped contacting her, after uni. This was after I found out she was telling people that I broke up with my then girlfriend to be with her, which wasn't true. She told everyone she was shocked that I would do a thing like that. I was like, whuh?! So, since then, I stopped contacting her. The last I heard, she was working in KL, but that was a couple of years ago.

Then, I got close to a blogger friend. I really liked her as a friend. I still do, actually. But things were made complicated by certain things, which I won't elaborate here. The thing is, I really appreciate her friendship, and I for one, do not want to lose that friendship. We used to be quite close. Now, it's as if, we are living in different worlds. I still care for her as a friend, and I would still go to her blog and leave comments there, and that's about it, for us, as friends.

Then, last night, something happened which made me feel confused and sad. I seriously don't know what I did wrong to get blasted the way I did. I didn't even say those things to that person, but apparently to her, I did. I still feel hurt by that. I just hope she can find it in her heart to forgive me.

After getting the cert from Oracle yesterday, went to KLCC to claim my DVD Player for signing up for a credit card. And while on the way through KLCC, I passed the concourse and saw that they were having a promotion on Armani's perfume. There, I smiled to myself as I recalled something which happened a few years ago. I was with my best buddy, and KLCC was promoting another perfume at the concourse.

And as we were crossing the concourse, a sales guy approached us and started his sales pitch. He was on the soft side. After telling us of the offer, he suddenly leaned closer to us and said something which my best buddy thought was "nak f**k", meaning "wanna f**k". My best buddy was shocked but when he saw that I didn't react to that, he knew the guy said something else. After that, I told my best buddy what he actually said, and we laughed like crazy about that. And in the end, neither of us bought the perfume. Better luck next time, dude.
