love of my life: first puppy love

This post is dedicated to my first puppy love. I decided to blog about him, because today is his birthday! Hahaha happy birthday Geo!!! :D

I fell in love for the first time when I was in the 4th grade of primary sch. My first love was Geoffrey Tanudjaya. I've known him since 3rd grade cause we're in the same examination class and we sat at the same row. He was a very smart, hard-working, and nice guy. I still remember when his best friend, Valencia Gunawan, delivered a love-letter for me on Sept 2002 and told me that it's from Geoffrey. I was very happy but then embarrassed when my math teacher, Mr.Rony, discovered the letter and he didn't just read the content out loud but also asked Geoffrey to come to my class and interrogated him :| I decided to throw the love letter away (now I feel regret for doing that) because I was afraid Mom would be mad if she found out. In his letter, he told me that he loved me and asked me to be his girlfriend. Of course I did replied him, but I didn't write any poems like him, just plain letter. I have forgotten what I wrote. One thing for sure, we literally dated since then. Geoffrey was a very sweet guy. Even before he confessed his feeling to me, he had bought lots of snacks from canteen and shared them with me. He knew which were my favourite and he visited my class everyday (we're not in the same class).

He gave me a rose on valentine, fake one. It was made out of some piece of clothes. He wanted to give me directly, that's why he asked me to wait for him at a place after our class ended but I didn't have the courage to meet him face-to-face since everyone was teasing us! So he asked Jessica to give it to me. When i brought the rose home, my whole family was surprised: my aunts, uncles, grandma, also my parents. their 4th grade nephew, grand-daughter, daughter received a rose from a guy? LOL

He gave me lots of gifts, some holiday souvenirs, snacks, rose, but my most favourite one is a pen case. idk what to call it, tempat pen? pen case? When we're on he 6th grade of primary school, there's a month when he didn't talk to me at all and I was pissed off. My best friend, Miranda, who used to sit in front of him told me nothing's wrong but still I was very angry. Later then, I found out that he's studying harder to get more money from his parents, so that he could buy me more-expensive-than-a-fake-rose valentine gift which is the heart-shaped-pencil-holder.Isn't that sweet? (I knew it from Miranda) hahaha.

He text-ed me at 12 am on my birthday. He used to be the number one and I used to be the number one on his birthday too! We also used to go to the same Mandarin tuition, and yes his smart brain has somehow sent him to higher level, so, we literally dated before the class started.

He's why I decided to join athletics, because we trained around basketball court! he took basket ball as his co-curricular activities.
He's why I saved some money for Valentine.
He's why I forced my driver to pick me up at 12:50 instead of 12:10 every Friday so that I could wait for him near the basketball court while he was playing.
He's why I stole my phone from my mom.
He's why I should save more money to pay more for my phone's voucher.
He's why I typed this post.

During my 3 years relationship with him (Sept 2002 till Aug 2005), we text-ed like a few times a month and almost never called each other. Even when we met at school, we just smiled, rarely talked to each other. you asked me how can we made it to 3 years? Ha ha, I'd love to know too!!! Nope, we didn't go on date, watch movies, hold hands, etc, no. But I really would like to thank him for the wonderful three years. Small attention from him could really lighten up my whole week! Just by remembering how sweet he treated me, I could smile to sleep!!!

Wonder how he looks like? Nah, this is the latest picture of him that I stole from his facebook :P

There you go! He received ASEAN Scholarship around Sept 2006 (if I was not mistaken) and decided to take the chance he was given. Told ya he's a genius!! As we grew up, we realized that the relationship we thought we had were not an actual relationship. It was, after all, common crush in children, but I believe ours  were very sweet. We decided to call our "relationship" off and remain good friends till now :)
