It's the shoulders I tell you

There was a day in MJC that two of my teachers were in class.

It was one of our last days in school and we were having fun with them.


We were voting for the class prince.

The teachers read the results:

The class voted for... Yinhong!!!


That was amusing.

But it also said quite a bit about the quality of guys in our class.


Anyway, it was time to hear who the teacher's voted.

Their vote for class prince was... Me.


That was more amusing than the first and the class roared with laughter.

Yinhong said I appeal only to older women.

There was a day this week I was at the Deck talking to Auntie Kim.

No one talks to the cleaning lady... well no one our age at least.

Auntie Kim said I'll make a good husband to some girl some day.

That was amusing.

On Thursday I found myself on the bus with Michelle.

She was Desiree's friend.

I had never really talked to her before.

I sat next to her but she did not notice until I leaned over to see what she was watching on her iphone.


We had a conversation all the way to school.

To break the ice, I brought up the topic of marriage.

And how I only seem to appeal to older women.


She was amused.


-:-


I amuse myself. I laugh at myself. I am only an Auntie Killer.

But my complains are in jest. I'm not dumb.


I know there are very nice girls out there who might well like me.

But I know that honestly, I am too immature to pursue them now.

One day maybe, but not yet.


Not till I stop going crazy over something as superficial as red hair.

Last night I prayed for the right girl.

I prayed God will prepare the right girl for me.

I prayed that she will be exactly what I'm looking for.

Then I stopped.


Nah.

Knowing myself, I prayed instead that I'll like the right girl.

My wondering heart knows not right from rong.


-:-


Oh wow.

I just realised that Auntie Kim's hair was red the first time I spoke to her.

This is amusing.

  1. Don't worry, I know how you feel. It seems only guys younger than me like me. HAHA. But, I've learned to trust in God's plan for me, and I believe that when I am ready, God will bring His planned, and chosen guy into my life. Don't settle for second best, or give your heart away easily, but look for the girl God approves of.
