By the time I woke up again, it was 2pm already. I rushed to my computer and hurriedly started to do something productive before I left for Central to meet up with my friend Nick soon. I met up with Nick at 7pm. He dressed like one of those typical businessmen today but it wasn't the first time I've ever seen him dressed this way. I still remember his most recent graduation photos on Fb was one of those updates I clicked like. Just by looking at how sweet his gf and him have been together, I sincerely wish their relationship can last forever...
I like how comfortable I feel whenever I talk to him. He told me how his working environment is and I told him what I've been doing most recently such as I started to work on my final assessment in the sake of avoiding last minute work. But I'd still like to spend some time catching up with those who I think they worth talking to, such as Nick, who has told me so much I want to know in exchange of something I'd like to share with him. He led me to a Vietnamese restaurant where it's located at Ultimo. Then I've mentioned AIT is close to where he was taking me to, he then wanted to know more about what exactly I've been doing for my new courses. As soon as we got into the restaurant, we found a seat where it was next to the window so I could see the view outside. We have discussed how we'd be sharing with each other's food by ordering lamb chops and viet beef noodles. While we were waiting for the food, he started to ask about my mum, I asked about his mum back as well as his grandma whose education level is too low to communicate with him. Then he told me his gf is now in Melbourne with his family for a trip. I noticed how close they are when they were still talking online during the time we had dinner. Not surprised to be asked about my relationship as one of the most common topics would be brought up in any catch ups. I mean, what can you say about someone's busy life.
Later on, I wasn't entirely full after our dinner, he then led me to gelato where he used to work ages ago. We ordered three different flavours and ate it together. The ice-cream was seemingly melting quite fast so that we both tried to hold the cup in turns when we ate. To fairly judge a person, I'd say my friend Nick is a flirtatious type as well, why would I say this? Girl's instincts are always correct. Anyways, our next destination was chinatown night market, we hardly walked through the crowd in order to order 5 lamb sticks. Next, we went to a quiet place to eat them all while we continuously talked about life and politics. Guys love to be generous and act to be generous when they actually aren't, I didn't spend a buck tonight though I've asked several times to pay for the bill for anything we ate. I mean, to hang out with friends, you are just a friend, you are obliged to pay regardless you are a girl. And his friend recognised him at the back calling his name so loud in the public. That friend talked to him for a bit, he introduced me to him so I asked if he could get me into coles as he's one of the managers there. Knowing that Coles he's working at now is too far from where I live, I was a bit disappointed lol After his friend left, we headed to darling harbour where we found a spot near a ferry. His political side was re-appeared as I mentioned about if he knew about the new political decisions made these days after the election. That is, the new policies will be taking effect starting from the 13th of May, yes, there are only just a few days left. As he didn't really take notice on Australian politics but knowing more about UK's, I asked him more about UK's. Soon we were discussing labour and liberal parties, in his examination he took from the internet as he said, he acknowledged himself thinking more alike with the liberal's though he actually feels that he holds a neutral point of view. Like me, I feel that a set of new policies doesn't directly influence my life, and I don't go against any decisions made because anything has pros and cons, some parts might be beneficial to a particular group of people whereas they might be negative to the rest. However, the only thing Nick disagrees with is that gay marriage cannot be happened. He meant, gay love is pretty understandable and possibly happens but to make MARRIAGE legalise is completely a different story. This act will only encourage more and more people to turn gay. Objectively saying, if one was born this way and only falls in love with the same gender, we shouldn't judge them. But once gay marriage takes effect, it will become a trend chaotically destroys natural rules and diminish the balance of generation. Anyways, other than this part of conversation that we both are in common, he told me more about what happened to Ukraine recently. Its turmoil was caused by a protest movement which has been expressing opposition to the government of their president. Anti-government activism is based on fighting for the future development of the country when the conflict is between a choice of ruled by democracy or Russian-style closed interest. I really like the way he tells politics when it doesn't sound boring at all :)
At 10ish, it was time to go home. He took the same train as me and dropped off from Wolli. I believe we'll catch up again really soon :)
PS: My frustration of not being understood, disappointment of not having something ideal from somebody as well as I only seem to be unimportant caused my crankiness tonight....It just happens over the time...Not like you can help it...
