Pagers // Tamagotchis


Had a gathering last night with my uni friends - Peiru, Meifeng and Colin - at Colin's pub - Check In (Robertson Walk). He also invited one of his dive friends, Winnie, and she's quite a funny one. We started reminiscing about uni days, how we have known each other for 12 friggin' years and all those time spent in between lectures and tutorials laughing our heads off at the dumbest jokes at our favourite spot "where there was wind" in one secluded corner of Bizad. Those were the carefree days.

So we had different classes last time and how did we communicate to make sure we gathered at our meeting spot? Remember the PAGER?! So the joke suddenly turned on Colin and how he didn't reply our beeps. Winnie said, "Remember tamagotchi? Colin didn't have a pager ... he was playing with his tamagotchi all the time while you girls thought he was replying to his messages!"

That got us all rolling with laughter. Hmm ... so we now know, huh, after 12 years that all the time we thought Colin was replying to us "Okay, I'm on my way", he was actually saying, "Are you hungry, little Dino?" Ha ha ha ha ha ... It was a really fun get-together last night.

By the way, Check In sometime to my friend's pub okie? It's a very cosy place where you can actually talk. Heart-to-heart if you'd like.
