For your information, bowwow didn’t have roaming. So if you need to blame someone for the lack of care and concern in the form of sms, den blame me. But I just feel super maligned now.
On the 10th of Jul, just on the 2nd day of the tour, u smsed me and told me that you might be flying to Tokyo to join us for the extension. Naturally I was happy for you and thrilled that we can at least explore Tokyo together. And naturally I assumed that your chicken pox must be recovering well. I replied and asked you to confirm with us again so we can set a place to meet den.
On the 12th, you said your parents were unwilling to let u fly. I said bowwow and I will try to find our way ard den and I asked you to rest well.
We know our tour guide smsed you. He told us immediately the next morning there and even showed us ur reply to him.
With this, if you feel that we should have sent more sms to ask about your condition, den I am sorry we din do so. I just feel so saddened by the fact that you said we totally forgot about you. Maybe I should have taken more initiative to send u smses to ask you about your chicken pox; but I thought that would have made u felt worse. Maybe I thought wrongly.
Even when we were at the internet café, we asked you about your condition over msn. I remember asking you how you were doing again on msn a couple of days after that, using the hotel’s internet access.
I concede that we might have been insensitive when we added you to our conversation with yisheng tt night. I wished we had nv done so. both of us even discussed whether we should add you. We figured that adding you to the conversation would be better den treating you as transparent. Would you have felt better if we had just ignored the fact that you were online? Or would you have preferred it if we talked about something else besides chicken pox and japan? Cos obviously we know you had chicken pox and you know we are in japan. Wouldn’t it be weird if we just toked about sth else? I dunno. I might be wrong.
But I do admit that we could have toned down and not gush about everything in japan, and prob spared abit more thought for you.
And I am really angry to be labeled as someone with zero EQ. by someone I still consider as a good fren. Maybe I m more disappointed. It doesn’t help that you insulted my ambitions to be a doctor as well. For your information, both of us had no idea that the tour guide asked you to cancel the shibuya hotel booking for us. When we booked a new hotel and decided not to stay in the shibuya hotel, our tour guide agreed with us that it was ok not to call to cancel the hotel, since we din pay anything for the hotel. If we had known that he will call you and ask you to cancel the booking for us, we would have gladly volunteered to do it ourselves. We really dun wanna bother you. Rest assured that both bowwow and I are capable of doing such a simple task.
The shibuya hotel became much too expensive because instead of dividing the expenses between 3 pple, we now had to divide it between 2. our tour guide suggested asking you to claim more from insurance to cover our extra expenses for the shibuya hotel. We didn’t feel it was appropriate, so we searched high and low for a new hotel. We even had to consider staying in capsule hotels cos all the hotels were booked. We didn’t mind that we had to loiter on the streets and sleep in the hotel lobby and stay the night in internet café.
I hope that all of this is just a misunderstanding, and you dun really mean the words you used on us. I wrote this in a spur of the moment so bowwow might not share my views. It’s purely my side of the story. i just hope that we can talk over this calmly sometime and sort things out. but if u feel that my explanation is not enough and you still wan to reconsider the friendship, i got nothing to say.
