sorry i havent read your blog for ages..slowly commenting entry by entry. hrm anyways i didnt read the whole conversation..sorry, abit confusing. but from what i gather, about how ppl sms and all that? (i learnt this in socpsych! hahaha)
haha yup you're the type-as-little-as-possible-i-wana-save-energy kind of person so i'm not offended when you send a seemingly snappish sms. but to ppl who dont know you that well (or to more sensitive ppl?), they might take it offensively. haha ah well. give and take a little yeah. so try to rephrase your sms/msges to them next time la. haha my 2 cents' worth.
