attention-seeking issues

if you really want to ignore your friends, it's really simple! All you have to do is continue talking in another language. By doing this, you will exclude the other 2 people in your group. but don't worry, i'm sure they're quite used to it by now. it's not that they haven't tried to get your attention, no. they have. you were probably too busy conversing in another language to notice. but you're not completely oblivious to their presence though, you do notice when they get up to leave. wow. observant. however this observation is only temporary, it's not long before you start your own conversation... again.

because of this, i think grace and i have developed attention-seeking issues. lol. or so she claims. but i think i'm quite over the whole language thing. it's probably harder for grace cos she's in most of their classes but i think she's hanging in there. *pats grace on back* perhaps we should consider our plan to bring whistles ?

don't get me wrong. it wasn't my intention to bitch about my friends. it's just that maybe they should learn not to be so rude. it's probably also useful for them to know that English is a universal language and that when making plans to go out, perhaps it would be useful if everyone was included in the conversation.

and it's not that we haven't kicked up a fuss about all this before. we have. we got an apology. and a 'we'll try not to keep doing it'. rite. all talk and not much action. but we're going to do something about it, we should. if not the problem will just get bigger and bigger but we don't want a big confrontation cos that might lead to an argument, which could eventually end in tears and anger. something we obviously don't want. so maybe we'll just stick to giving them gentle reminders then ? o i don't know.

so then you wonder, why do we continue to sit with them?
hmm. i sometimes wonder too.
well they're nice friends in other ways and i think they just ignore us unconsciously - which isn't a good thing.
i guess it's your friends who have the right to shrink your head when it's getting too big, or to tell you to stop acting like an idiot.
someone needs to remind them about good manners and who better than their friends?

although i have to admit, we are quite mean to them sometimes.
but we don't intend to insult and/or mock your little so-called traditions. honest. and i'm sorry if i've been a bitch in any way.
