The Outing..

I dreaded going out alone with him but his persistence finally wore me down. Or rather, I ran out of excuses. How many excuses can one come up with when he has been asking for months? At least during the school semester, I could say I was busy with tests, assignments and projects. After my last paper, what could I say? "I am sick," which was the truth. "I've a job interview", again the truth. No more excuses. So I finally relented. I'm really bemused by his planning that it sometimes gets on my nerves. I thought I was bad in needing 24 hours notice for any appointment during the school term. He is worse. For goodness sake, it's the holidays now. Is it really necessary to plan like 1 week in advance when both of us are so free? Furthermore, he even has to plan every single thing we do when we go out. How boring can one get. And I hate it when he treats every thing I say so seriously. Even after I've corrected him, he still insists that I'm not joking. I give up.

I was really amused when I received one of his sms last week while watching my HK drama serial. It went "Can you call me now? I got 2 things to tell you." Thinking it was something important, I called him back immediately. When he spoke, I was trying to control my laughter. He sounded as if he was reading from a prepared script. Any interruptions from me and he would go dead quiet. Halfway through, my mind wandered back to the tv.

Anyway, the outing wasn't as bad as I thought. I was thankful that the meeting time was short. But his frequent ridiculous and stupid questions totally put me off. I know he's nice but the feeling is just not there. Which reminds me, I owe him one as he insisted on treating me just now. Damn it.
