OI noticed a tendency. And I don't think it's a good tendency. 

Since I was grade 6, other than 2/5 that I like, all of the girls seemed to be older than me. 

Actually, it might be grade 5... I don't even know. When I played for a musical play in school, I fell for this girl. 2 years older. Fucking great right. 

Grade 7 was more normal, this time she was my age. But.... Well things went a little awkward. I was never great at dealing with people; and I was absolutely terrible with human relations at the time. So you can guess where that went. (So no, no dates. )

Then grade 9, as I joined cadets, I was all in for M. And she is, like most the others, is older than me.... 2 years. Fuck me right. I gave up before even the end of the year; really never expected any development anyways. Being treated like her brother (ish) was really unexpected though. 

Now I finished grade 11, and my new crush is, again, older than me. But this time, only 1 year. Previously I mentioned that I am in a summer camp... Well I don't know if you could call a hotel a camp, but this is where I met her. 

She confuses me. I didn't really care who she was at the start, but she started talking to me. She complained that I always had my earphones on, and that is why she never talked to me for the first week (hey at least she respects my ear / headphones. Rare breed indeed). So I started to take out my earphones when she comes around, but she really hoes to say much. 

The following few days, she would come sit next to me on purpose, and of course I don't mind talking to her. (I'm really interested in her at this point. ) she seemed happy holding conversations with me, and her friend keeps telling me that she wants to talk to me. 

And then, she just stopped. Like a car crashing into a wall; like a shooting game being pasued - it just stopped. I'm most confused by this. She almost just seems like she hates me now. (Eh??) and this all happened relatively soon after she found out I was one year younger than her. 

Well that's my ranting of the day.... I guess I really shouldn't even complain or some shit, considering I'm just a 17 year old; I probably don't even come close to the problems that 20+ year olds have... But I just really want to spill it out. 

How's your day going?

Power is actually going really well! Yes, my landings are a little bit harder than intended, but I'm landing on the runway markings spot on. 

Also turns out we can eat at the runway café! And holy shit their food is expensive, but it's good too. It's 27 degrees Celsius today, so I went and grab some ice cream. They gave me 3 or 4 scoops, and it was 6.80CAD. I call worth on a day like this. 

But as good as the ice cream was, the day was pretty shitty. The wind when I was flying was 200 Magnetic 18 KT, and our closest runway is 26; which turns out to a 16 KT crosswind. Our limit for Cessna 152s are 12kt, so I got 4 duo circuits in, but none for solo. I feel pretty pissed; yes I understand it's a safety concern, but still. 16 KT wasn't hard to land considering I do this on glider and also the past 2 circuits. 

Our CO is really nice too, but kinda weird at the same time. O well. 

How's your summer coming along?

I find myself very anti-social yet very out going at the same time. 

Don't worry. I'm confused too. LOL. 

I love talking to people; it doesn't make me annoyed or something, but I enjoy being alone or in a small group of friends more than a large group. If I can I much rather be listening to music and have no one talk to me; I just want the world to be silent sometimes. It's not like I'm depressed and hate people, I just find it more enjoyable alone. 

And for some awkward reason, I don't seem to merge in too well. No one hates me, but it's hard for me to start or continue a conversation. I never really start conversations since I don't really know how, so if I want to talk to someone, I just keep hoping that they would talk to me to initiate the conversation - I have no such skill what so ever. 

Anyways, I'm at Waterloo doing my pilot's license, and I just soloed 2 days ago. I'm really surprised by how fast we go solo, because on glider it was like the 24th flight( over 30 for me since I failed so many lol). I'm not really learning new things from ground school either; so I hope that changes. 

The hotel is nice; the food is good, and I'm having a lot of these food for the first time. If there is anything I need to complain, it would be so much of it is hand food (I really need some chopsticks), and that one of the salad taste like Barf. I'm cereal. 

Anyways, how is your summer going?

Hey what's up!

I got in to power pilot scholarship! Can't even being to describe my excitement! It is a 7 week "camp" at Waterloo, getting some pretty intense flight training, and we will recieve a private pilot license by the end of the course. I'm my opinion, it's not really a camp, considering that we are living in a hotel (yea "camp"), but I ain't complaining. So much better than those so called barracks. 

I ended school with an average of 88 for second semester excluding English (that subject honestly). Much better than I expected; and I certainly did not expect a 94 on my exam for physics. 

As for M, I kinda started treating her like a sister, and she started treating me like her brother ( or more or less along those lines, and of course those feelings disappear =p luckily lmao). I'm pretty happy about that, she's a nice person. 

I'm expecting an exciting, fun summer, although I really do miss Hong Kong. Probably going next year or something. Can't wait to go back! 

What do you have planned for summer? What do you want to do next year? I'm sure gonna have some fun!
