aye and nay

ugh!  am i so hard to understand?  or are my objections being deliberately misinterpreted?  is this a tactic or what?  how come my nos are coming across / being interpreted as yeses?

present tense

on the phone with someone who was supposed to call me every hour on the hour yesterday...

friend:  'why didn't you bring your phone?'

me:  'i did...'

friend:  'you turned it off...'

me:  'no!'

friend:  'i couldn't contact you...'

me:  'there was no signal in the room...'

guy chuckles...

me:  'at the session hall!  there were so many of us...  i was there the whole day...  we finished around 7...'

i am a good girl, duh!

<cough, choke, smirk>  ; p

making time

guy texted me the other day asking to call yesterday...

i said ok...

then yesterday when he texted asking what time he could call i was in the shower...

i told him i'm rushing and i'd just text him...

he replied if i'm busy he'd just call monday...

ooops...

after my shower, when i was already in the car, i texted him it's already ok to call ...  i was driving so i just put my phone on speaker-mode...

when he found out i was driving he reminded me he said if i'm busy he'd just call monday...

i went, 'i don't want it that you're down and you notified me that you'd call then i'd move you to monday...'

i want to be there for you, guy...
PLUS, i hate cancelling people...  i put up with that for so long...  i'm not gonna inflict it on others...

why UP is not in the finals

on the phone yesterday...

me:  'congratulations...  you won...'

caller:  'what?'

me:  '76-70...  UAAP...'

ateneo vs. UP...  the guy is from ateneo; i'm from UP...  he texted me the other day when ateneo was up over UP by 4 in the 4th quarter...

caller:  'oh...'

me:  'i said i hope you win, right?  you were feeling down and i was thinking if you win you'd be happy...'

caller:  'well, happy...  but it's not the same as before...  before it was really...'

me:  'well, it's not ateneo - la salle...  but at least you won...  imagine if you're feeling down and then your team lost, all the more that you'd feel down...  you won so at least you were happy somehow...'

i want you to be happy, guy... ♥

and when you're blue, every single joy counts...  : )

as for my team losing, i just console myself with this Q&A...

     Q:  'how come UP is not in the (UAAP) finals?'

     A:  'because UP is smart so it's exempted from the finals...'

; p

not meant to be

my phone was low batt before i went to bed last night.  i thought of charging it but decided i'd just do it first thing in the morning.

what do you know, 1:05 a.m. and my phone rang.  i wasn't able to take the call because the battery went empty.

lessons:

1.  charge your phone before going to sleep

2.  don't call at 1:00 a.m.

choose one or the other or both...  ; p
