niao, wat's so interesting about knowing all the anime you watch. watever the case, all that have posted have said something totally relevant. simin thanks for speaking up for me, it's a miracle how much it means to me, i'm shocked. but i'm not going to go into the details of that problem now, cos now we've all touched the roots of the greater one. i don't think our friendship is superficial... it's just not enough. WE aren't putting in enough effort. niao's right: we're always seeing the same people at outings. how often do we put school work or people in our school at a higher priority than this clique? it's so easy to agree to some other outing with people you see everyday at places where you don't have to go out of the way to arrive at. but i'm sure our friendship can give us the control we need to meet each other. what i'm trying to say is, let's try harder. it ain't enough just to make it for all the outings. like what simin said, we shouldn't just stick with the same individuals. we need to move around, cos we're a CLIQUE, for God's sake, we're 8 people. EIGHT!

as for the moo-lichin problem, we all need to know both sides of the story from both people's MOUTHS at a first-hand view, and not passed from anyone. i've already heard moo's side by myself. i haven't heard li chin's. but what's evident is that both of them are not wrong. moo didn't intend to make li chin uncomfortable by joking about it. moo is just the kind of person that likes to play about. we all know that, and it's part of her personality, it's not a quality, it's her CHARACTER. li chin had to keep her privacy, and it was torturing her that moo was playing about what she held very dear to her heart so easily. but you see, because it was so important to her, li chin couldn't see that moo was SIMPLY joking. the importance over ruled everything. and for moo it was such a simple matter of SIMPLY joking, that she couldn't see that li chin was taking it very seriously. i hope you guys are getting what i mean. it's simply a case of 2 clashes of character, and all 8 of us in this clique will experience it sooner or later if not before. surely we all dislike something in each other. but i know for a fact the something we love in each other definitely overwrites the part we dislike.

i'll post more when i get back too dangerous to do this at work..
