The Sweet Thang

For a reason I have never been able to find out, I am quite (actually… really really bad) at remembering names and face. Every time I go to a camping, functions or motivation program, and met new friends, I would remember the person at there and then only. Unless we keep in touch. Tu pun punyala susah…I remember back in 11th Asian Canoe Championship’05, I had to guide a group of South Korean athletes, and on the first day, I met their Vice President of Canoe Association of Korea. The next day, I met him again, and I forgot his face. I bow (seriously Koreans and Japanese memang suka tunduk-tunduk nih..tension aku mase tu!) and introduced myself to him once again. He said “Didn’t we meet yesterday? I remember your name…it’s JURA”.

Ok old man. You’re good at remembering names and faces, but you truly suck at pronunciation. Jura?????? Its Zura la!!! Nevermind. What I’m getting at is that I truly suck at remembering names and faces. And when I finally remember this guy’s face, so strong his presence in my mind that the next time I meet him I actually smiled at him…there must be something in him right?

Here is my summary of what happened from the first time I saw him. It all started on the month of March 2007 (that long ago…*sigh*). I was riding in the bus from campus going back to college, and there weren’t really many people in the bus. I sat quite far behind and saw this sweet lil thang sitting in front of me. Seriously, in my almost four years in uni, I’ve never been so keen and interested in a guy before. And so I dreaded myself to get off from the short journey (I wish we’re on our way to KL or sumthing!) and saw him getting off. I hesitated, and finally I have the courage to wait and see where he’s heading…to find out which college he was staying at that time.

And so my journey into hell-like admiration starts. It seems like God is really supportive this time. I saw him almost every week…either in the bus, or cafes or just by the sidewalk. Every Tuesday, I would bump into him at the café because I had my theatre practice at his faculty. Oh…I forgot…a few days after the first meeting, I saw him playing guitar and won a title in a college festival. He can play the guitar!!! How sweet…The next day, I saw him having lunch alone…and he had black nail, which is quite cool. I guessed he notice I was staring, so he look at me and smiled. I felt like fainting! Hahahaha…stupid isn’t it?

Then after bumping so many times with him, and since I never had the courage to even say hi, this story is still hanged (tergantung la u ol!). I don’t know whether he’s still single, or whether he’s on his way to get a girl friend, but I’m still hoping that he would read this. And if I have the chance to meet him personally, I’d like to apologize for always (always as in always!) staring at you. Seriously, every time I saw you, there’ll always be a song that keeps playing in my head. Especially that sweet lil tune by Lauryn Hill “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”. I think I scared you off a lil bit. Thousand apologies.

For one, I did not know anything about you when I met you for the first time. I didn’t know that you’re a musician, and a real good one at that (believe me, people were showering praises to you each time I asked them about you). I didn’t know that you actually have a band which is becoming more popular by day (I juz downloaded your song..illegally..sorry!!hehe…cuz I couldn’t find your CD anywhere). I didn’t know ANYTHING at all about you at that time. That’s because I don’t care I guess. I don’t care who or what or who had you been before I met you. What I thought about at that time is that my heart beat so fast when I saw you that first time. Maybe it’s just a silly little crush…

If I can talk to you, I’d like to tell you that you’re such a gifted guy with music abilities. Keep it up…you’ll get to where you wanna be someday. I wish you all the best in your music career (since your song was played on the radio, I guess you’re heading that way eh?). That’s all I can do right now I guess. What else can I do when all I can do is to watch from a far?

Fuh…leganya…akhirnya…hahaha

I dunno if I’d be dubbing this post as stupid at a later time, but I’m leaving UPSI in a less than two months’ time, and I want to take this chance. Hm…sorry if this post offend anyone…

To be honest, kalo someone wrote this to me, put it a side sape orang tu dulu, I akan terharu sampai tak leh makan. (Tdo bleh lagi =D)
Dun have to feel scared about voicing out ur feelings. U onli "give". Keep on giving but never ask for anything in return.
I really hope that he can read this.
