Present

I came in earlier than usual, to make up for being late the rest of the week. I said hi to the boss, looked over to her desk out of habit, and there it was: placed just beside her keyboard, neatly wrapped in cheerful blue and green balloon wrapping paper, roughly the size of a box containing a purse.

Puzzlement: It's definitely not her birthday. It's too early for christmas. Oh no I need to get her something for christmas. Then why? If I were to give her something I'd put it right in front, make it obvious so she won't miss it. But then, placing it at the side is subtle, less paiseh for her. Ppl won't see it unless they really look. Like me.

Jealousy: I left at 8pm the night before - only 2 or 3 other girls were left and I was certain they weren't close enough to warrant a surprise out-of-nowhere present. So it must be someone who came early.

Panic: I look around. Her best friend isn't here yet. Who else is here so early? Oh no. Asshole from the other department. No one really likes him. I have seen him coming over to talk to her before. Really? Would she like him? Such grossly bad taste? Actually like someone who thinks he's so damn impt to everyone else?

Worry: Past the timing already - she's seldom late. She wasn't feeling well last night when I left. Would it be too pestering if I sms-ed her? Ask her if she's feeling better? Was she so uncomfortable she missed her stop? It's probably nothing - I should just act normal.



Should I SMS her?

Then, there she is - breezing thru the door and down the aisle. I give her some space, let her settle in, before beginning the probe - the series of questions that could shatter me.

"Hey someone gave you a present."



"Oh, I wrapped it last night after you left. It's for you."

Time to Take a Stand.

To those who are concerned:
- with a shrinking and aging population, we do not need more degradation of the basic family unit (a father and a mother)
- Homosexuals are already portrayed in some shows from the US as 'cool' and 'in'. Showing more approval towards homosexual behaviour could possibly influence confused teenagers and cause them to think it is 'cool' to be homosexual and thus they follow suit.
- We should be aware that a loud voice, helped by media, does not constitute the majority
