Henry Lamer and the Agent for the Future
Hi.. I'm blogging sooner than i expected. Anyway, ytd, i was walking around ang mo kio, trying to burn sometime. Then i bumped into this insurance agent. It was like people set a trap for you, and u walked into it on purpose. But, its different. Coz i got a plan to get out. And there's 2 reasons why i want to walk into it. 1) I believe i can learn something about communication skills from him. 2) Talking to him is definitely better than heading towards the arcade, wasting money.
So, he tried to sell me insurance, WITHOUT telling me he is from an insurance company. He tried to make me believe he is from a bank, for whatever reasons. But too bad i saw his lanyard which displayed the name of his company. haha..
Regarding his skills, i must say i learn quite a few things. One can actually tell he has done this quite a lot of times despite not meeting his quota. And the fact that i was somehow convinced by him sort of shows his ability. The way he uses examples, personifications, humour to convince his clients is quite gd. And very cleverly, he actually mentions both the advantages and disadvantages of the things he is trying to sell to me. And u know whats the best part? Before i decided to sit down with him and listen to his plans, i asked..
Me: I don't have to buy anything right?
Him: Ya! Don't worry. I'm not trying to sell you anything.
Den after we sat down for awhile, and listening to him say, "What do you think? Sounds good?" for many times, while i was pondering over what he said and his talking abilities, SUDDENLY, totally out of the blue, he said this as though talking about the weather,
Him: So would you like to give me $200 first as a start to this plan?
Luckily, i am not that dumb and slow to that extent. So i quickly recovered and said i will go home and discuss with my parents, need some time to think about it and etc. And i promised to get back to him if i am interested.
IF.
why?
Henry Lamer and the Depress Princess
Juz went out wif princess ytd. Its been such a long time since i last saw her, about 1 year, as she kindly informed me.. she didn't change much. Still as pretty.. haha.. but that's not the main point. Anyway, we decided to meet coz it so happens that we both wanted to watch a particular movie, "Handsome Suit", a japanese romantic comedy.. And it sort of teaches the moral that looks is not the most important thing. haha.. typical.. but i agree with it nonetheless, and still quite convinced that i am a very superficial person.. haha..
I muz admit that when we first met up in the arcade, it was kinda awkward, coz 1) Its been so long since we last met. 2) We aren't really gd frenz, juz frenz 3) We both dunno wat to say to each other. 4) I juz got owned in the drum game. And since there was still quite some time till the movie, we juz walked around the mall like some aimless soul. Until i came up with the idea to buy some food to satisfy my itchy mouth.
We only really started to talk until dinner time, where by for the first time in my life, someone watches me eat while he/she never eat. But it kinda gave her the opportunity to talk about some stuff bugging her. And it kinda gave me a shock. Exactly what she mention, of course i will not say here as its her privacy. So i juz did wat i could, lending her a listening ear, hearing all her problems. Then she keep asking me to counsel her of her problems, guess she didn't understand that although i was older than her, all i wanted was to actually listen to her problems as a fren, not as a senior, or a counsellor. haiz.. Den after spending some time in the coffee shop, we went to walk around and continue talking, sharing our sch life, or in my case, ex sch life. Basically, it was kinda serious talk, mixed with childish stuff inside, coz i can never be serious all the time. =p den until, we ended up at the bus stop, preparing to take a bus home. So it happens that she stay near me. haha..
I muz say that it was fun, seeing all the buses u can take home, stop in front of you, allowing passengers to board or alight, and leave.
Without me in it.
And it was cute, to hear her say "miss the bus!" again and again. until a point, where i told her she can stop saying that, coz i will miss the bus together wif her for as long as she wants. So we continue to have our conversation there as well. And the way her fringe always covers her eyes gave me the temptation to shift it away. But i never did, for fear of sending the wrong signal, and perhaps juz afraid to do so. We seem to like to talk in noisy places. Hmmm.. And throughout the whole outing, i was busy glaring at guys looking at her the wrong way, but too bad they didn't catch my glares.
So i manage to send her home, and talking at the bus stop outside her house for quite some time as well. Until i force her to let me send her all the way to her lift lobby. Coz it was so late.
But all those stuff mention above, is not the main point.
Yes, i know.. "Henry, not main point u blog for wat? Bo liao ah?" Well, u can say that, but stories need to be built up, u can't juz jump into the climax, unless u are a complete idiot. So ya..
And if u are thinking that i like her, u are wrong too.
Main Point:
Strangely enough, her problems, are actually making me feel miserable as well. The fact that i actually blog about this particular outing, among all my other outings, shows that point. And strangely, it was not until today that i felt the full impact of it.. Probably due to my slow mind. haha...
What i dun quite understand is, why wud i feel terrible, when it does not concern me? Its not that i dun care. i do.. coz she's my fren, and i want her to be happy. Its the first time that i feel so weird inside over someone's problem, and its not the usual weird, its the weird weird. i gave it some thought. And think that perhaps it is becoz of these reasons.
1) I never knew she was different. Never. Never even suspected it. I was worried of course, but she said she wun be. Until ytd. I still remembered how i use to tell her again and again, "Pls princess, whatever u do, promise me u will nvr be like ur frenz. They are gd people i know, but i really like you to be like me. Pls." I guess its true that they say humans are like sponge, they will absorb anything the environment throws at you. haiz.. princess.. why?
2) She's damn sad. And its infectious. Like i said, she said it with such a non chalent tone that i feel even more hurt by it. Even though it was a different type, i feel that the pain caused by such things are still the same. Lasting, painful, unforgettable, at least not yet..
3) I could not help her. I feel helpless, coz i dunno what to do for her, except to listen. But is listening really enough? I lost my ability to offer useful advices and heart warming encouragements. tongue tied? lost for words? not knowing how to react to this kinda situations?
4) I know people say u look fierce. I know u are independent. sorry for saying this but u look so small and helpless! you seriously need someone to look after you.. haiz..
Hopefully she dun read this, if not she'll probably think i am crazy or something. I also dunno why am i reacting this way.. haiz..
Weird.
I'll willing to go out with you just to keep you distracted. Let go of it, princess. You can do it.. Stop smoking.. you know what i mean..
i need to see you again, i don't know why..
Henry Lamer and the FOC Week
I guess i should be thankful for this particular weekend. Coz its one of the rare weekends whereby i do not have any duties to attend to for my NS. Lucky me, so i get to have breakfast with my family, which i treasure very much, and of course some personal time for myself, like now. haha.. It feels gd to be able to wake up later than usual, with no agenda to attend to. I guess some of my frenz who are sutdying now or working, muz feel like killing me, coz such leisure time probably dun exist much for them. haha.. Dun worry guys, i'm sure ur time will come. =)
Anyway, i finished my german homework way in advance(first time), i am not meeting anyone today, and i am alone at home, with only God watching over me. haha.. so, in other words, i'm quite free to do whatever i want, sort of. So i chose to blog. haha.. coz like i mention, i dun have this luxury all the time. haha.. and this special weekend sort of allowed me to daydream a bit, regarding what i want to do when i finish NS, this year november. Quite a few options, come to think of it.
A few of them i mentioned in my new year resolutions, the rest, i shall mention here. haha.. A couple of them most people wun do, coz in today's world, time is so important that, they dun waste it on activities like these..
First, i want to sit at esplanade. Sounds weird heh? haha.. i like the atmosphere there, whether its inside or outside. I like the class which oozes out at every single corner of that place. Strange as it sounds but, i like things with class, and it applies to people as well. =) I juz want to perhaps spend a day there, walking around, sitting outside the esplanade, looking at the singapore river, and people walking by. And hopefully, i will be able to catch a performance on that day as well, preferably a hip hop dance, or even some band or orchestra. Makes me feel classy. haha..
Secondly, i want to take buses around singapore, ending up at who knows where. I wanted to do this long ago, but opportunity keeps passing by. I want to snap pictures of daily life in singapore of everyone, and strange or beautiful sights found around the island. I want to explore every crook and cranny in singapore, as many as i can. I want to try and sit on as many buses in singapore. My plan is to start from my house, take the first bus that arrives, and drop at any stop my instinct tells me to. And from that stop, i will take the first bus that arrives as well. And so on and so for.. haha.. Join me?
Thirdly, I want to go learn hip hop again, and seriously go practice hard for it. Make sure i dun waste my money learning it. I want to be proficient, so hopefully when i go uni, i can join dance. =)
Das ist alles for now. haha.. the rest i will think of it when the date becomes closer. Yes, i agree that its not gd to waste time. But if u are rushing around all the time, u will not get to enjoy all the wonderful things that this world possess, so enjoy it while it last.
=)
