Okay more like random facts.
I need new shoes. Believe it or not, i only have ONE pair of shoes. I’ve been wearing the same pair of shoes for the past year. Actually when i first got here to Michigan, i had these leather boots that we got from England back in 1995 or something like that. Of course, i only started wearing them like 6 years later because seriously, why would anybody wanna wear boots in Brunei. There’s no snow in Brunei. So yeah, i came to Michigan with those boots. Wore them for about 2 months before they started falling apart (The soles kinda came loose. Stupid boots) so i had to get another pair of shoes. Went to Meijers and got myself a new pair that cost like.. i dunno. 70 bucks? Or something like that. Nothing fancy. Hell i don’t even know what brand they are. No-name pair of shoes. But they’ve been good to me. I like my shoes. But they’re starting to fall apart. Sigh. I need new shoes.
So i like this girl. She’s in my intercultural communications class. Blonde. Blue eyes. Probably about 5’5, 5’6. Never spoken a word to her. Well maybe just once. We had to get into groups and we were introducing ourselves to each other. That’s pretty much it really. She seems nice. I *would* like to get to know her better. But eh. I only have like what? Just over a week left before i leave the country? I tend to do pretty stupid things around times when i’m ‘about to leave’.
Like for example, in highschool. I think it was about like, two weeks before i was gonna quit my A levels, leave school and just go straight to college. There was this hot new girl that’d just moved to the school from ISB. She had a pretty hot friend too. Whatshername. Camilla. Yeah. The friend. The hot girl, her name was Jeanne. Okay that’s a pretty bad pic but trust me, at the time, she was really hot. Hottest girl in school even. So on her first day of class, this kid Daniel was supposed to be her ‘guide’. Showing her around school and stuff. But he didn’t want to. So i graciously stepped in to take his place. Haha. Anyway, we started hanging around each other a bit. And it became like the biggest ‘thing’ in school that i ever did. Actually the second biggest thing. I think the first was when i started going out with Mira. That two timing bitch. No wait. Second would be when i got with Izzati, another ‘hot new girl’. She eventually became known to be my ‘psycho ex’. No wait. Maybe it was the time when Stephanie started stalking me. Oh i don’t know. Anyway, yeah, Justin walking around school with a hot girl. It was a big deal. I actually posted about what happened during those two weeks in detail. You can probably find it in the archives. Start reading after Tuesday, July 18, 2000. If you want. It’s pretty lame though. My old posts suck. Sigh.
Anyhow, looking back on that, i really have no idea why i even bothered. I guess we were both just fucking each other over. Haha. Not literally though. But yeah, honestly, i seriously doubt she was into the whole thing. Neither was i really. I mean come on, what could’ve possibly happened after those two weeks were over. I was gonna be in another country soon after that. So really, despite what i said in those old posts, most of it was all just manufactured. A ‘storyline’ i guess. Something i did on the site (and in real life) to go out with a bang. Actually it was really more of a whimper considering the fact that none of it was really ‘real’. She was into it out of pity and i was just doing it to look good. Haha. I’ll never do anything stupid like that ever again though.
Another stupid thing that i once did. April 2001. I’m back in Brunei for like, a month (i think?). Semester break. And two weeks before i’m supposed to go back to Malaysia, i hook up with Sophie. So yeah, two week whirlwind ‘relationship’. We both knew what we were getting ourselves into. We knew that things probably wouldn’t work out with the long distance and stuff. So i gave her the option of just ending things after those two weeks. But then she says that she’s willing to give it a try and wait for me. I’d be back in August. Only a four month wait. So we go through with the long distance relationship thing.
Everything was hunky dory.
Then. A day before my final exams. A week before i’m supposed to be back in Brunei to see her again, she cheats on me. Sigh. Oh well.
You can read about the whole ‘i got cheated on’ saga if you look in the archives and start reading from Wednesday, August 1, 2001 onwards.
Oh and i made a pretty good post on July 29 2001 too. My Chasing Amy story.
I used to blog more back then didn’t i? I don’t do it anymore because i highly doubt any of you guys would give a shit about what’s going on in my life (or the lack of it). So yeah, i doubt anybody’s gonna even read this post so i guess i’m just writing this post for myself.
Anyhow. So yeah, she cheated on me. I have all the luck with women. Sigh.
I mentioned Stephanie up there. The stalker. Yes. I had a stalker in school. And this is the story.
So like, i’m like (literally) minding my own business in the learning center right, doing my business homework (hah!) for business class (told you it was literal). Then fat Jeff comes up to me and he has Stephanie with him. Apparently they’d just met like a day before or something and then he introduces me to her. “That’s Justin”. And then she goes “Ohh. so this is the mysterious Justin..”
wtf.
Anyway, so we all sit. He’s next to me. And she’s on the other end next to him. I started cracking jokes and making fun of fat Jeff. Some stupid joke about firemen and police and donuts. And she just cracks up laughing her ass off. Each time i made a joke, she’d just be laughing and laughing.
Hey i’m funny but i know i’m not that funny.
Anyhow, over time, she kinda switches places with Jeff and suddenly she sitting next to me instead. Then it was time for us to head off to class and i’m like “nice to meet you” and stuff.
And we’re all off on our way.
So then the next day, i’m walking up the stairs to one of my classes right, and i see Stephanie walking down the stairs coming towards me. I just give her a little nod and a smile, you know, to acknowlegde her presence and stuff. Then, right as she walks by, she TAPS my ass.
I was like thinking “HOLY SHIT WHAT WAS THAT”.
I look back and she smiles. And i was like. Okay. And i just brush it off.
So then later that day, during lunchtime, as i’m walking towards the cafeteria, i see her coming towards me from the cafeteria. And she’s like, “Oh hey, where’re you off to?” and i’m like “Oh, just gonna get some lunch” and she’s like “Oh can i join you?” and i’m like “Yeah sure. Have you eaten?” and she’s like “Yeah but it’s okay, i’ll keep you company”.
And that. Was when it began.
So over the next two weeks or so. She just keeps ‘mysteriously’ bumping into me all over the place. Always tagging along and always by my side following me around. And people were starting to notice.
You know, it was nice for a while. All that attention. It was nice. But you see, she’s always had this reputation for being a little ‘unstable’ so to speak. Apparently there was in one time in her art class where she just had a mental breakdown or something. And she’s also been known to sorta talk to herself.
…
And sometimes, when she’s talking about stuff, like this one time, she was telling me about her mom and how she doesn’t like her, she got so worked up and she just became sorta… wow. Psycho. Man. That was scary.
Anyhow, so people were starting to notice ‘us’ and i got a liiiittle uncomfortable with all the attention she was giving and all the attention that we were getting. Plus i just didn’t like her in that way you know? And she was kinda coming on a little too strong. But i was just too nice to let her know that.
Gosh, there was this one time, i was with all my buddies in the learning center just talking about stuff. There were probably about like 8 or 9 of us at the table. And then Stephanie just comes up to me out of nowhere crying her eyes out because she was stressed out about something or whatever and she’s laying her head on my shoulder and then on my lap and then everyone just went all quiet. And we were all like, wtf.
Goodness. Was that ever awkward or what.
So one day, i just decided to let her know that enough was enough. That it was getting a little too uncomfy. We were walking past this one group of people and they were all like looking at us and going “oooooh” and shit and i was like “omg kill me now”. Okay i didn’t actuallly say that but i sure was thinking it.
She just started laughing and i think at that point she kinda got the hint that i was just a liiiittle bit embarassed by her following me around everywhere. And she was like, “You feeling okay?” and i was like “Not reeaally, it’s just…”
“Uncomfortable?”
“Yeeeah.. i mean, i do like the attention and all but it’s kinda getting to be a bit much.”
And she just laughs it off and tells me that she’ll back off.
And that was that.
She just stopped following me around after that day.
End of story? Not quite yet.
See. The next day, she started stalking Marcus.
And long story short, he got freaked by the stalking and told her to fuck off.
So then she starts stalking Dan Fanselow. And he got freaked out by her stalking and i guess he told her to fuck off too.
So then she starts stalking Dan Bell (Sophie’s brother).
And lol. Dan and her actually became boyfriend and girlfriend! Hahaha. She was his first ever girlfriend i think. I think he was desperate.
Oh boy.
Gosh there’s so much more to that story. Especially with what happened after they both got together. But. It’s too long a story and you just had to be there to get it. Maybe next time eh?
Notice how everything stupid always seems to happen within the span of two weeks?
Anyhow. I’ve rambled on for far too long.
Point is. I need new shoes. And i do lots of stupid stuff whenever i’m about to leave someplace. I have bad luck with women.
And that i had a stalker once.
And i’m about to do something stupid on Friday. Sigh. We’ll see how it goes. Maybe i’ll post about it if i ever get around to doing it.
Anyone got any stalker stories to share?
