Tuesday, September 27, 2005I'm That Girl
alright. let me try my hand at this before i go to bed.
i'm that girl who fought with her friend for a whole year over a guy in primary school. they made the class take sides and it was so bad their teacher had to intervene before they went on to primary 5. she was the same girl who was labelled "the frankenstein's bride" by the above mentioned friend.
i'm that girl who is so klutzy that in 20 years she managed to accumulate a broken arm, a shattered wrist, a sprained back, sprained ankle(s), sprained finger and a tic tac up her nose.
i'm that daughter who when caught playing with her mum's eyeliner, insisted that it was her colour pencil.
i'm that girl whose heart got broken in a sports car.
i'm the girl who ran out of a club with you when the police came because we were underaged.
i'm that girl who threw up along the highway to malaysia. i’m also that girl who made the rest of the people in the car throw up.
i'm that girl who hung up on you when things seemed to be going the way she didnt want it to.
i'm the girl who sleepwalks. i'm also the one who steals your share of the blanket in the middle of the night.
i'm that girl who hates slimy animals like snails and frogs yet loves her slimy vegetables like eggplants and lady fingers.
i'm the one who watched you sleep.
i'm the girl whose sister thought was obnoxious once upon a time.
i'm that girl who couldn't bear to miss classes in year 1 yet happily skipped a tute just to have breakfast at macdonald's with you. did she mention that she is also the one who doesn't eat fast food?
i'm the girl who has played truancy only once in her life and that was in jc when she knew she was going to leave for australia anyway.
i'm that girl who fell asleep on a stranger's shoulder in the bus because she was too tired. she woke up in the middle of the ride but decided to fall asleep on the shoulder again until she reached her stop.
i'm the one who has tchaikovsky, bon jovi and guang liang all on one playlist.
i'm the girl who waits for you to talk to her.
i'm that girl who fainted when you gripped her hand too tightly.
i'm the one who vomitted in the area above the amphitheatre in sec 1, then walk away after that pretending nothing had happened because there was no one else around.
i'm the girl who fell out of the car outside the law library, right next to a dead and flat bird. the other 4 in the car tried to pretend they didn't see what happened to spare me the embarressment. she's the same girl who almost believed male chivalry died on that day until you finally broke the silence and laughed with me.
i'm that girl who fell on the steps of the royal exhibition building. yes, the main entrance of the exam hall.
i'm the girl who tends to fall asleep during (even the best) movies and who only cries when she's watching/reading alone.
i'm that girl who coerced you in the foodcourt into doing something you probably would never have done if not for peer pressure. Funny how you told me just recently that you wish you had never done such a thing...yet I wouldn't have it any other way when i did the exact same thing a few years after you.
i'm the girl you befriended though she walked into that british council classroom with every intention of just sitting in a corner and getting it over and done with (and she’s glad you did). i'm the girl who is comforted by your existence because she now knows there is someone out there who is more klutzy than she is. ;) (think digital nerve)
I’m the one who started talking to you because of a stupid dare and who then knew would regret her actions because you really reminded her of her dear friend when she first saw you. You don’t have any resemblance now but she is still regretting her actions at present.
I’m the girl who wishes she could dance, sing and play some instrument. She can’t do any of the abovementioned.
I’m that girl who misses playing mahjong with your family and hanging out in Bukit Batok in the most unglam clothing.
I’m that girl who thinks she can take on the whole world. The girl who crumbles when she finds out that she actually can’t.
and you thought you knew me?
