Help ma,
I'm EMO!
Argh I really hate it when I'm put on a guilt trip. Now I really feel like burying my head in a towel and running off to a room where I will hide behind locked doors, and oh-so-mournfully reflect on my wrongdoings.
Bleah.
He, whom I've been so full of angst towards, the one who I indirectly blasted in my previous post (read: unpleasant phone call), is the culprit behind my overwhelming emo-ness now.
Today, during our last lesson, he sprang many surprises which made my heart sink further and further in shame. First it was the nicely wrapped voting boxes which he prepared, then he took out prize after prize from a duffel bag almost like a bottomless pit, following we exited from the class with a buffet spread already prepared, next he unveiled a huge cake which said "Congratulations".
Oh that's only scrapping the surface. He gave us 2 bottles of Champagne (100% real!), and super expensive chocolate made of 99% Cocoa, so high-end the chocolates came with a catalogue in the box.
OOOHHHH MMMAAAAAANNNNNN I feel like the most ungrateful person on earth. How could I how could I how could I.
He sprang this mini vote-for-the-best video stunt towards the end, and my group won the honourable 2nd prize. That won us a box of chocolate-coated coffee beans with a catalgue written in French. The group that won the best video got awarded a cup each, specially printed with the word "WINNER", and his infamous website logo.
WHOA I'm on a major guilt trip here. Why are all the lecturers this sem suddenly pulling this emotional stunt on me?!
So there I was loitering around the buffet spread, head hung in shame, going to people to tug on their shirts and saying, oh man help me I'm so emo. He's so nice I can't stand it!!! And they gave me the oh-ya-he's-nice-but-just-eat-your-food-already response. Boohoo. So I went around looking for more people to release my emo-ness to. HAHA.
I can't help it that I realllllllyyyyyy appreciate things like that ok?! Appreciate with all my heart, deep deep inside out!!! I'm just a person built in a way who gets really happy/contented/excited at the small little things in life, and this is no way small!! This totally blew me away!!
Some asked me: So easily bribed ah?!
Ya la I admit I get won over very fast. (I mean, just note the difference in tone between the two posts man!!!) And I've been warned to guard my heart cos just a simple gesture can send me melting like no tomorrow.
But still I really appreciate what he's done for us! He didn't have to do it at all, but he chose to.
All is well all is well. I forgive him for everything!
:D
