The 15 year old

Just came back from dinner with Aisyah, Amorn and Amanda. (only when typing this out do i realise their name all starts with A! LOL the A Team, haha) Haven't seen them in a long time, and aisyah and amanda look lovely, while amorn looks... actually a little like he jumped out of a manga... haha must be the hair...

Anyway, they were the same batch of students as me, so all of us came into TJ in 2005, but they've gotten the head start in life, while i went through 2 more years in TA, so in actual fact, they aren't really 'seniors' but more like peers, but older.

yet, in their presence, i will always be the little kid (yes yes, make your BIG/SMALL jokes now XP) and i even feel it in my behaviour when i'm with them! i let loose a little more, i am willing to be a bit more charming, more ego, more silly, and just more of a kid, then i would be with my other friends, and needless to say, the juniors.

maybe its just me taking my role as the little TA kid of the group again. aManda termed it "hegemony" (makes me think of Sharuum, helps that s/he's my current wallpaper) and it means to have a dominance of one social group over another. what I THINK it means, is to basically suscribe to what the dominating social system in the group, and for me that is to be the less mature kiddy guy, despite having had my own share of growing up done.

still, i enjoy playing the munchkin of the group, showing maturity only when i have to, if not its fun indulging as the little one :D

Hopefully the 05-06 Drama Gathering turns out well! i can't wait to see some of the ole drama people again! Leandra, Serena, Raf (amanda! hahaha), and i realise we don't have much guys in drama... much less GUY guys... Why Shouvik! why did you go away :'( still, can't wait! :D
