After working out at the Gym, I sat by the fruit stall, had my fruit juice and chatted with the friendly Indonesian ladies, who were attending to me then. I noticed a young girl, about 15 years old, walked with her boy friend, roamed around the mall. Once a while I noticed her quick glance at the boy, with her sweet shy-ish smile. I wondered if their parents knew their whereabouts.
Then I remember when I was that age. I just moved from Methodist Girls School , Kuala Lumpur to Sabah College, Kota Kinabalu, then. I was active in sport and many associations, but was kinda uneasy with the sudden surge of attention I received from those boys, which later I tend to enjoy the so-called attention.
When I received a first love note, placed in my drawer, I felt a sense of maturity and was proud to know that someone was interested in me, while in the girls school, NO WAY I would know whether or not I was attractive.
It was there, in Sabah College I realized that I was among the good looking (some people told me that).It was also there, I started to react like a good looking girl, to the level that I didn't want to be seen walking alone with a guy.
Why?
Firstly, my parents said I was too young to think about boy friend.
Secondly, I didnt want to spoil my parents' reputation.
Thirdly, I was afraid of not getting the ‘most handsome guy’ in the school.
But then , until the end of the school days, none of the good looking guys were attracted to me. Some said I was too ‘high-pride’, while some said I wasn't attractive enough ( I thought I was).
That was me at 15. Such an innocent girl.
