Kickin' it with the Kouhai

[forever_wandering]

Hello Hello.

My Kouhai has been here for three days now, and will be leaving in four.
Physically, she hasn't changed at all, but every time we have our up-until-2am-chats, I realize that personality wise, she's changed a lot. She's me--me two years ago--which is what allows me to tolerate a lot of the things that get said, lol.

Like losing more weight and about how it's lame that I no longer flirt with guys to get free things.  

We went to buy cookies the day before yesterday and apparently, one of the guys took a liking to me without me realizing it.
She pointed this out to me when we left the shop and told me I should have milked it for free cookies. 
In reply, I answered "I don't talk like that with guys I'm not interested." 
Then, I was told I was stuck up. Maybe I am, but it didn't bother me one bit as I ate my cheesecake lol. 

We went to Busch Gardens yesterday and decided we'd go to the beach today. I pointed out that I needed to buy a bathing suit since I no longer had one.As we were walking down some stairs, she says to me "Okay, you can't eat anymore after this moment because you need to trim up." 
I pointed out to her that that was fine with me because I never eat after 5pm anyway. What does she answer? "No, I meant you can't eat anything until M-san(the guy I'm in to) gets here." I just gave her the raised eye-brow, laughed and kept going. 

In High school, comments like this would have hit me hard because I was so insecure. Now, I laugh. 

Tomorrow, we'll be going to the Disney store to buy some things. Why? Tasha decided I must dress as Minnie mouse. We argued about it, I caved, then told her she had to dress as Daisy Duck. Tomorrow, we buy the supplies we need to cosplay lol. It's going to be so embarrassing, but I'm ready for it, lol. 

I'll post pictures, of course! 

By the way, it's most likely that M-san will come two days after Tasha leaves. I have to go to a festival on the 11th, which means I'll only have one day to actually mentally prepare myself for the "Arrival of M."

Do you really never eat after 5pm?? That's impressive! I tried doing a not eating after 6pm thing, but sometimes it's impossible to do, stupid life getting in the way.

Also, what she said about how you shouldn't eat because you need to lose weight is horrible! It's good that it didn't bother you, but people should really not say stuff like that...

Well, I don't eat if I'm not hungry. Usually, I eat a big breakfast, which leaves me only slightly hungry at lunch. When I eat lunch, I get full quickl y, since my stomach is still somewhat full from breakfast. This leaves me filled until the very next morning. =)

Yeah, they shouldn't...But young people...meh, we should never take their words too seriously. Young and foolish and all that =)

"Okay, you can't eat anymore after this moment because you need to trim up."
Lol, I would've probably punched somebody for saying that to me. *not proud* >.>
I wish I could laugh off stuff like that.

And it's not stuck-up at all. You're just not using people for free stuff. Which is a very good thing imo. :)

Now, when people say things like that to me, I automatically blame it on their own insecurities. This helps me feel better about myself =) I don't want to hit people who say things like that because I know they are saying it to get a rise out of me. If I ignore it, I get a rise out of them =)

Yeah. That's kind of what I was thinking, but I wasn't about to start that argument. She's in that phase where no matter what I'll say, she'll think the opposite. Lol.

But we have a lot of fun!

That's kinda true. People do say stuff like that to feel better about themselves. I've been on the receiving end before. *sigh*
Haha, I didn't mean I would've literally hit her, but yes, I would have very colourful images in my head. XD

Aha, a typical teenager phase. I used to be like that with my parents.
That's good! She sounds like a fun person otherwise actually. :D

I know right?! This was my first time going. Well, apparently, I went once before when I was like 4, according to my parents and pictures, but I have no recollection, so it feels like the first time to me!
It really is fun, and you can walk it in a day.

I'm glad it's not too awkward between us. We were really good friends in High school and it's nice to have her back in my life! It's relaxing.
