Mood: tired Fact of the day: event of the week: suana and jacuzzi treat tomorrow
The uiuc gathering today practically sucked up all my energy for the day. Man....
Besides preparing the food, the whole interaction-with-juniors thingy also sapped away a lot of my energy. Didn't I mention before? I get so damn tired when I have to talk to many people in one event. Very very tiring for me.
Beyond "so when are you flying off?" and "so have you bought your textbooks yet?" I can't really think of anymore things to ask those juniors. Not that they're too quiet or anything like that. Actually things were so much easier because most of them are so outgoing. But I still feel very drained.
And I found two very irritating misconceptions those uiuc guys still have of me. They still think I'm damn desperate for a guy. And that I'm bisexual. Argh! These are jokes! They're not supposed to be taken seriously! And now my juniors think the same way...sigh...what to do. The joke is so old that I think maybe some of these people actually believe in them. Like I think Li actually thinks there's a strong possibility that I'm not exactly straight.
I'm definitely not homophobic and there's nothing wrong with being bisexual. But fact is, I'm perfectly straight! So why wouldn't anyone believe me? Because I'm overly affectionate towards my girl friends? Man...I guess I didn't act very heterosexual. But to say that I'm desperate for guys. Sheesh.... I guess there's no way I can prove otherwise and nobody will ever believe me. Sigh.....
Other than these irritating little jokes they were cracking, I think the gathering was generally rather successful. But I'm so damn tired now. I really need to recuperate and restore my internal energy..hehe..
