Birthweekend
Happy Birthweekend!!!
It has been a busy but pleasant weekend to celebrate his birthday. There was a dinner party, a soaking golf, a family dinner, and a taking birthday boy out dinner. I gave him different gifts each day, including the best thrilling and intriguing book of the year-my thesis, Modelling the Slow Wave in the Small Intestine and its Associated Magnetic Field.
Surprisingly, I had so much fun this time with his friends at his dinner party. I guess what didn't kill you really makes you stronger. I survived through the 5days kiwi holiday, so 6 hours was just nothing especially I found a way to deal with my uneasiness in his world.
I have always thought it has something to do with different cultures but I've realised that it has more to do with who is leading the conversation in the group. I felt strongly neglected when someone (which is not me) conducts a one-to-one conversation in a group for too long, especially when the someone is one of my close friends. It was easier to take some actions after I acknowledged the source of my uneasiness. I tested my little theory at his party and it worked like magic. I found out as long as I stayed out of his dominating conversation groups, I can deal with others just fine. I couldn't believe that I rather to talk to someone who may hate me than staying with him.
Yet, for a long long time, I finally have a great time in a group.
