How do you deal when someone tells you that another person you're not remotely close to dislikes you for one particular incident that has happened?
I think... you don't deal, you give it a 'pfft' and move on.
I've had my share of bad rumours and catty acquaintances. I get too lazy to defend myself sometimes and just let whatever they want to think float.
I think it's unfair that you get labeled based on one incident (that people even haven't got straight facts of) that happened which completely undermines the other ninety nine instances of good that you've done. But that's just the way it is, you know. People will remember you for the bad that you've done and pass cold remarks about the good.
I tell myself this every time this happens, that as long as the people that I care for know what I am about then there is nothing more for me to explain.
Some people stay fallen when things go wrong, but I think I prefer to ignore it, or at least blog about it first then later ignore it, and prove people wrong, that is altogether a different kind of gratification.

Most of my Malaysian friends who have decided to do the BAR have left for the UK earlier this week. I miss the UK a bit but BAR is definitely still an option for me.
All the best to them. I miss you all so much and I'm sorry a trip to KL could not have been made in time for your departures. Good Luck and please update me on what BAR is like.
