Seriously, i don't have many friends here (many as in i have to count my right fingers as well). And knowing me, i love making friends. But, lately i feel that 'friend making business' is almost impossible to be mastered at.
I did try to make it a point to 'appear' at any malaysian gathering occasions. Know some new people. Tp tu la setakat 'know' je la. Among favourite conversations:
a. Berapa umur anak you?
b. U duduk mana?
c. Dah lama duduk sini?
d. Makanlah...
and lastly (if not, unlikely...)
e. sapa nama u ek?
Then, when it is time to make a move, shake hands and laga2 pipi bagai. I don't know about you, but i find it weird to 'laga2 pipi' with someone i barely know who. I only 'laga2 pipi' with my bosom buddies. Shaking hand will be more than enough.
Oh ya, there was this incident happened at the airport when we were there to sent Darwina and Mom to India (ni je la my bosom buddy here :( ). I happened to know this lady from few occasions (yes, salam n laga2 pipi). So, i saw her there with her kids...bidding farewell to the husband i presumed. Me, trying to be nice, all smiling and ready to 'laga2 pipi'...went to approached her. Her pretty daughter noticed me coming and told her about it. Then, she looked at me with this "do-i-know-you" look and look elsewhere. Adusss...that was so embarrassing!!!I pun buat2 la mcm mencari2 someone, LOL!!!What the fart!!
Apart from Meera, there's one more mother of 1. Kira baik juga la (we talked on the phone sometimes). Yesterday, i called her. She told me that she did planned to invite us for a pot-luck picnic the other day but then 'i segan la pulak' she said. Alamak!! U lepak lama sikit dgn i then you know there's nothing to be 'segan' with me.
Well, to cut the story short:
AM I NOT APPROACHABLE OR NOT THAT FRIENDLY OR ANTI-SOCIAL?
Thank you in advance for being honest in your answer. Appreciate it.
Ada ke orang anti-sosial yang jadi vocalist for a band performing for the company's annual dinner?

Saya toksah kira la bab sosial tu plak....sya tak reti la bersosial, pemalu. Modal crita pun takda...adeh2. But with a pint,it will help....LOL!

Susahlah sini Pey. Aktiviti bersosial adalah limited. nak pegi menge'pint' kan diri, dah tak boleh. Bawa anak pg park, sah2 terber'kawan' dgn indian. Balik KL juga seronok. Boleh menyambal!
