From
last Thursday till the next Monday the 20th is the Roses Carnival,
with the biggest, the most extravagant main parade last night, started
at 10 p.m. throughout the night till 3 a.m. this morning, and continued
in many parties in different places. Even at 6 a.m., there are noises
of loud music, laughter, shouting and yelling everywhere. During some
part of the night, I didn't exactly remember how and why, I found
myself sitting in the middle of a group of youngsters, boys &
girls; well, not exactly boys and girls but all younger than I am. I
have always the knack of getting along well with people very much older
or very much younger than I am; strangely, not so much with people my
own age. Especially women. For I don't know what reason, they don't
seem to like me enough to include me in their groups! Not my fault,
their loss, I tell myself.
I
got off track a bit. Back to the group I practically fell into. In the
course of the hour or so period sitting with the young people, chatting
and laughing about everything or nothing, somebody suggested we
each tell one thing to show whether we are good, or bad girl / boy.
For me, not easy, as I think of myself basically a good girl, but I
have also not just done, but enjoyed, quite a lot of 'bad girl' funs.
Not bad in the sense of illegal or downright criminal of course, just
mischievous behaviour and maybe what's generally considered 'forbidden'
actions or simply have misbehaving (without breaking the law or harming
anybody). I guess I have committed plenty of those.
I
have never thought of myself as a bad girl, at least I think I am good
more often than I am bad. Like Mae West said, 'When I am bad, I am
better.' Yeap, that describes me as well. I told that to the group of
my new friends, none of them had even heard of Mae West!
They
enjoyed that confession though, and suggested we meet up again
tonight. So I am in. The group of semi good/bad youngsters. Now putting
that mini skirt 4 inches above the knee tonight to go out would be a
mini trial with temperature at 8 degrees. But I definitely won't
confess that!!
