Hi, do i know you??
February 21 ME
o hi. well, you look alot like someone i've been wanting to talk to since christmas 2007. i was supposed to do some drama action and you were doing singing at church for the christmas event i believe. i know its kinda vague but its been so long. sorry if it isn't you though.
February 21 HER
christmas event? You mean at ****? I've done so many events in church that i can't really remember haha, sorry. Are you from **** too? Don't recognise you though!
February 21 ME
yea im from **** haha
February 21 ME
so are you studying now?
February 22 HER
Oh cool, have i met you? Yeah i'm studying now heh.
February 22 ME
It's been quite a while so o can't really recall. Maybe it was a brief one haha. Your parents work in church yea?
February 22 HER
Just my mum. At the mandarin side. How come you seem to know stuff about me and i don't even recognise you! Hahah. You in **** or adult side?
February 22 ME
Oh I attend service with my parents. The only church event I took part in was that Christmas one. Back then I remembered you talking to your mum on some rehearsal day and your mum was giving mandarin translation on Christmas day service itself on the second service. We met but I probably didn't get the chance to talk to you back then. Man I sound like a stalker
February 23 HER
hahahah no lahhh you don't. I'm surprised you can still recognise me though. I think I look very different now compared to 2007. Anyway, you should introduce yourself to me properly in church one day. I feel very bad not remembering who you are when you seem to know me. Maybe if I see you I'll remember!
February 23 ME
oo yea. you go *** right? where you studying now btw?
February 23 HER
yep. But now we seem to have combined with the main church and service is becoming very draggy. So sian. I'm taking a music performance degree in **********.
February 23 ME
oh wow that's really cool. how long you been studying there already?
February 23 HER
well school starts next week actually haha. So I haven't officially started studying yet.
February 23 ME
Oh. So what were you doing before?
February 24 HER
I took a gap year after poly to go work and get some experience and stuff.
February 24 ME
ooh. all the best for your school next week! do you attend church at 1115 or 9?
February 25 HER
thanks Hmm i usually go for the 1115 one.
February 28 ME
hey
hey i dont mean to be nosey but i just wanted to say that God will turn things around for you and i will be praying for you
March 13 ME
hey i find it really silly to be doing this through facebook but its unfortunate that God didn't bless me with telepathic abilities combined with an inbuilt gps system in my head. so i really have no other way of finding you and talking to you.
i was just wondering if maybe you'd like to meet up so we can formally introduce ourselves to one another. i mean its going to be quite weird since i've never spoken to you before but i thought it would have been more weird if i had used yellowpages instead. just kidding.
yeah hope you're up for it
God bless.
March 13 HER
Hmm you still attend church right? You can always come and look for me after service on sundays, since you seem to be able to recognise me haha. I'll always hang around at the benches next to the pick up point under the sanctuary with my friends for awhile. Anyway how you manage remember what I look like after so long? You must have awesome memory skills. I haven't been in the worship team for quite long already, I'm in the youth dance ministry now.
March 14 ME
I don't know how I can still remember these things though. Sorry for being so awesome. I just can't help it. I try to tone down but ah.. You can't stop the truth from showing. Haha anyway, what time does service end for you?
March 15 HER
I go for the 1115 one, so usually around 12 plus or 1 plus?
March 15 ME
ooh. hmm ok. do you mind giving me your number? i don't really like to talk through facebook haha.
March 16 HER
i don't really like to give my number to people i don't know haha, no offense to you! Use msn la! We are computer literate people yo. **@hotmail.com
March 16 ME
Haha ok I understand. That's cool with me
March 17 HER
Haha. Add me on msn then we'll see if we can plan a meetup or something.
March 17 ME
i just did im **@hotmail.com long story about the email. don't ask. just know that i was obsessed with trolls when i was a young boy. sigh.
Saturday ME
hey! so tomorrow how? haven't seen ou online for the past few days
Saturday HER
hey sorry i've been really busy these few days. Hmm maybe next week then you come and find me can?
Saturday ME
hmm alrighty
Yesterday ME
hey. i was doing a lot of reflection and i feel really sorry to be barging into your life and just being real pushy about things. i think i really made this more awkward and uncanny than it would have been. after all, i'm still a stranger.
we can probably meet up whenever. there really is no hurry. maybe when things settle down or when the time is right.
once again, i'm really sorry.
God bless
Before you actually read the above spoiler of the above conversation held almost over a month through Facebook, I'd just want to explain the context of this whole thing. She was a girl that I met in church through an event back in Christmas 2007. I never had the courage to talk to her back then and eventually, I never saw here again until I chanced upon her profile on Facebook through a friend.
It seemed like she was really interested at the start but somehow over the past 2-3 days, she just didn't seem to care anymore. I tried talking to her on msn but she was just like "oh hey" and that's it.
I really wanted to talk to her and to meet up. I think I took things way too fast which probably made her uncomfortable.
It's been such a long time and you know for another shot at a once in a lifetime chance, I blew it again. Somehow, it just feels this will go nowhere and not really asking for advice but just sharing if anyone cares.
