Jennie  and I have been spending a lot of time the past couple of days.  Amazingly, she isn't really as bad as I thought she would be based on  the first time I've met her. We're so different in so many ways but I  feel like her personality compliments mine. Although sometimes I think  she is too shy, part of me also thought that maybe she isn't just used  to this kind of life.

I've  learned a lot about her these past few days. Patience isn't really a  virtue for her that's for sure. The girl burnt several dishes ever since  I started teaching her and she wouldn't want to redo it again after  burning something. But maybe that was my mistake too. I went ahead and  taught her the ones that I thought were easy but I didn't really think  of her. It's her first time to cook and I should have known better.

Although  I must admit, her being frustrated is fun to look at. She also blushes  easily I noticed but whenever she ties her hair in a bun, I couldn't  help but look at her and then gaze on her neck. She didn't need to wear  anything sexy to look sexy at all. This girl doesn't even need to try.  I  don't really give women a second look. If I did, it would always be  like damn, she's so pretty, I want a face like that or damn, she's got  nice hair I wonder what her shampoo is. Things like that, if you know  what I mean.

But  with Jennie, it's quite different.  I like her eyes not because I wish I  had them too but because they're crazy beautiful. The way she tilts her  head when she listens to my stories, how she gazes at the pictures on  my wall, it's like a walking piece of art but better. I wonder what  she's thinking though. Sometimes, I catch her looking at me randomly and  I do that too! I can't help but think if she's attracted to me as much  as I am to her of if we're both curious. It's kind of hard to read her  If I might say. 

I  mean, she does open up a lot more now than before but I still feel  there's something she isn't telling. It's obvious that we've only gotten  to know each other recently but I think she is becoming a friend  already other than being neighbors. I hate that I'm starting to over  analyse shit to be honest. I do know she had suitors. But didn't end up  with anyone. Both of us pretty much lived as straight women basically  but if you ask me about her, I'm not so sure anymore. I'm hoping it's  only because I find her interesting and that's it.

Okay,  I should just let this thought go and be friends with her. Yes, that's  the most sensible thing to do anyway. She won't hang out with me in the  morning today as she has to finish up some testing today. But we planned  to hangout in the afternoon. I thought my vacation would suck but so  far, it had been great and I still have five days left until I have to  go back to work.

I  remembered there's this one specific place Jennie haven't been in the  building though, Well, I wonder if she knows about it already but it's  actually set up for this buildings occupants to unwind and relax. There  are pots of plants surrounding the entire area, a gazebo built at the  centre that has a large couch in it and a table for however you want to  use it. Everyone that lives in the building has an access to it so I've  decided we can probably hang there tonight and drink.

It  seems like she doesn't like interacting much with other people so I  figured that place would be comfortable enough for her. We can just  chill and enjoy the city lights of Seoul at night. It kind of felt  lonely when I was the only one going up there back then. God knows how  many times I cried my heart out over there because I either miss home or  I'm frustrated with my life.  But now, I get to share it with a friend  other than myself. I, at least hope she'd like it.

I  cooked food for later so we can just eat dinner up there and then  drink. Does she even drink though? I don't know but I certainly do. Even  if she doesn't end up drinking, doesn't mean I can't. After all, I'm on  a holiday, might as well enjoy it.
