hung up

Its the first time i've ever hung up on anybody.

I have (many a time) pull the fone away from my ear but mostly out of boredom or to muffle the voice of the odd loud talking person. But you know how you hang up in anger? It's a whole new dimension altogether. And this is a very dear fren of my mine. Though, things have gotten ...awfully sour since I started working on the conference. Well, not always sour, we do have good times.

to be honest, I've been simmering like a week old pot of kimchi stew since we started working on the conference.

Its your typical unforeseen circumstance.

We decide to put in a bid for the conference.

We win the bid to host conference.

One of us gets a job at the law firm (I am no law student)

One of us is left organising this conference that we made a pact to work together on.

Our friendship crumbles (though that is on a 'to be continued...' note - who knows?)

It's not that I don't understand her stress and how important her career is to her. If anything, I believe a career for a woman is of utmost importance (where else are u getting funds for those louboutins?). But she made a promise. When we put in the bid, I knew she would be getting a job, she knew she would be getting a job. In short, we both knew. But what I pulled from it was, she would then have an office to where she could work from and therefore, she'd be able to make calls, faxes, etc w/o cost.

how was i to know that she wouldn't be able to work out of the office?

I guess its not reali about the workload. Its more like not having a partner to guide u towards the right direction lest you fall out of focus. I value her opinion and I need her opinion. And the truth of the matter is, i feel isolated. We went in it together and now...

In any case, hanging up on someone is not one of those zingers you would wish to zing on someone. Especially your fren. and the more I think about it, the worse i feel about hanging up. but then again, given the chance i would've done the exact same thing again.
