i was only joking

literally.. i was only joking in the last entry writing "haha who noes? we might end up in the headlines tmr!".. and well.. it wasn't a joke that funny after all.. though it was highly amusing and exciting..

woke up with loads of smses coming in telling me i ended up on the front page of the straits times.. wow.. thot i was dreaming for a while.. but the more of them i read the more real it became.. first thot: muz be very unglam.. coz yest that it was really chaotic.. lots of pple pushing to get a glimpse, a handshake or a photo.. haiya.. but finding out from my frens it wasn't that bad.. second thot: lay hands on the newspaper to have a good look.. seriously..

haha yes it's really quite exciting.. to think that i was really upset with myself that i wasted one whole day.. partly coz i was obliged to go for this.. i mean yes it's once in a lifetime to see the president of the u.s. .. but then again there really is very many other things to do and i din expect such opportunities to arise anyway.. went because it was sort of "compulsory"..

well nothing very much to be proud of other than that.. "cheap thrill" as my fren puts it before noeing that all these will end up on the front page yar.. haha but quite honoured to shake hands with him and speak with him.. i thot that was more honourable.. well the rest.. juz plain luck.. not as if i could have any say in wad goes on the front page of the straits times.. i look quite amused there though.. well actually i was coz everyone wanted their fair share of the attention from the man himself..

yeps got my fair share, or more like lion's share of the attention.. but never ever forgetting to wish him well today.. i think i muz be crazy.. lost the girl power and lost more of my so called determination.. found out he had a language exam today and i actually went to wish him well in that language thru sms.. played mysterious in his words abt my knowledge of the language or anything more.. haha coz i din want it to be too obvious though everything really is very much obvious to me already.. today is a happy day.. coz when i think of him.. it becomes more of motivation than distraction.. i think i've reached another level altogether.. :)
