21/11 . Sweet Emotions

NOTE: This entry has been written under the influence of alcohol in the blood *hic*

It's amazing how romantic everything seems or becomes... with the right amount of alcohol consumed... Haaaah... I've been feeling too much in the blue lately and today, after a bored day at the office, I had a nice chat with my best friend about my "Type Nine" personality (yeah, she laughed and snorted in agreement, and raised all limbs at one point) and had a nice walk with her to her class. After which, I reluctantly went to the GYM!! It was such a struggle whether to go sweat it out or just go home and brood and dwell in depression... but finally I decided that it would cheered me up better by exercising. :) - And on my way home, I bought myself some cheap red wine drink just in case I needed anything else to feel cheerful! Heh..

AT THE GYM (love is in the air?)

Love is in the air? Hahaha.... no way!
And did the PT come talk to me again? Make a guess!!!
Hahaha.... OH YES-HE-DID!!!!!! (wwwooooooooohhhhh~) *whistle-whistle*

Well, once again, I started my work out at the cross-training machine. Then I noticed, HEY! the PT chatting up to the chubby girl next to me is that same guy! Ah-ha! and I think to myself... is he gonna come talk to me again? Hmmmmmm.... *rub chin and twirl hair from large mole on chin*
Being very kaypoh, I strained to hear their conversation while looking the other way (at the TV) to disguise the kaypohness, and ho-ho-ho - how I chuckled to myself when I heard him said to the girl: "...Oh my girlfriend also...blah...blah...blah..." - *pooooofff* did you hear that? No, that's not a fart I just let out. It's the previous suspicion that he might be (er-hem!) interested, hur-hur-hur, haa haa haaa..... CASE CLOSED. (And to think that someone asked me to give that poor sod a chance, heh. He wants my money.)

Indeed he wants my money. After he's "done" with the chubby gal, he walked by and noticed me. *wink-wink* And the following conversation took place:

PT: "HEY....." *sweet smile*
Me : "Hi!" *sweet smile back and pant-pant-pant*
PT : "Wow, how are you feeling? Enjoying your exercise?"
Me: "hhhh....hhhh....h....." *pant-pant-pant*
PT: "Wah, your face is so pink, exercising real hard ah?" (and I just smile and ignored him)
PT: "Oh, have I spoken to you before? You already have a trainer right?" (wah, obviously he has only 4MB memory - cannot remember me leh)
Me: "Yeah, hh...h...hhhh...., you spoke to me last-last Friday, hhh....h...h..., last Monday, hh..hh...and now again today! hhh..h...hhh.... (wah liau eh - me now super anal liao - OK...be nice) *amused smile*
PT: "Oh, did I ? Sorry.. so many people... can't recognise you... (aiyo 4MB memory say so lah) *roll eyes secretly*
Me: "It's ok, I understand.....I'm not here regularly so you don't remember me.... plus ordinary face lah" (cheh! of courseI understand... you have 4MB memory mah - me better, hee heee.....12MB)

Tsk-tsk-tsk..... aiyo... I'm speechless. Perhaps you'd like to add a comment? ;-)


Sweet Emotions

Uhhhhhhhh...... now here comes the juicy account of the day..... *giggle-giggle-giggle*
I went on a ROMANTIC DATE last Saturday... Ohh-hooo-hooo..... *giggle-giggle-giggle* *HIC*
Hur-hur.... I know.. that's the effect of the booze I'm drinking.. as mentioned... its something *hic* call "Red Wine Cooler"....

Well, actually its not true lar, I've NOT been invited on a date lar *sob-sob* -- it was just meeting up with a friend, and more of a "by the way" thing - at least that's how it seems to me la - (haha... this account will probably freak the sweet fella out when he reads my blog). Well, see.. my new sweet-musician friend whom I've not met before was given a couple of free tickets for a movie and he asked if I'd like to go along (and I thought its a group of them). YES of course!!! In fact, I said YEA!!! YES YES YES!!!! First of all, I was very eager to meet him (he's so interesting and sweet), and I had been wanting to catch that show, plus life has been too gloomy -- and the invite couldn't have come at a more perfect timing! Needless to say, I had a really great time last Saturday! So how can I just say this is an ordinary outing? (hur-hur...it was supposed to be just an outing lah...) MOREOVER, this dude is so sweet I really must not take it for granted - So I have decided. It will be SPECIAL - a SPECIAL OUTING. YES. Thence I shall paint this account pink with romance... hee..hee, yaa haa haa...


*_* ~~ Hey, you sweet-musician guy, if you're reading this, just be amused hor...but don't freak out hor... or suddenly disappear hor... nor become uncontactable forever hor...!!! Remember.....it's the alcohol at work!! Yeah, blame the drink!! :)


And here's how I'd like to remember the day....
(music please....)

Once upon a time there was a princess.... (*DUH*) - oh shutup!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First of all, let me pay tributes by relating from my perspective how sweet and considerate a person he is... being just himself (without agenda and without "trying to be sweet"). And I guess, I'm a sucker for all sweet stuff. hee-hee...

Sweet#1 : He offered to pick me up (Awwwwwwww......)
Hey, most people might take it for granted. But HEY! It's not a date, it's an outing, yet this fella offers to pick me up from the west when he stays all the way in the east. I just feel touched that he'd be willing to do that for me - though he said its bcos he loves to drive - but in this account, I'd like to be slighty self-conceited and think it's about me. hur-hur....
Anyway, due to time constraints (its an early morning show at 10.30am), he picked me up at a central place instead.
Still, it doesn't change the fact that he's sweet. (Awwwwwwww......)

Sweet#2 : "Let's look out of place together...." (Awwwwwwww......)
Well, upon learning that the movie (and breakfast before movie) might be attended by many highbrow/bankers etc... I was freaking out (slightly lah) about what to wear!! Gosh, I've always gone for movies in casual wear being the plain-jane-girl-next-kampong, and now I've gotta dress-up!!!!!!?? And this is what my dear sweet-musician guy says..... He said, "...let's just go in jeans, if we're out of place, let's look out of place together..."
(Awwwwwwww......) Isn't that the sweetest?

OH and yes, yes, call me a sucker - but there was something he said that is absolutely sweet as well..
I was being a pest and checking with him if I were to wear this or that would it be appropriate... blah..blah..blah - he should really ignore me, heh - but guess what he said? (sorry... I have forgotten exactly what he said due to my limited 12MB memory) He replied something like "Should be fine, I'm sure whatever you're wearing you'll still look better than me". (AWWWWwwwwwwwww.....) Ohhhh so sweeet!!!!!

OK-OK!! I know I'm over-doing it. hahahahahahaa........ are your hairs standing on ends? Goose-pimples upon goose-pimples? hhahahahahhaha....

BUT ON A SERIOUS NOTE - I really appreciate him for it. Truly. Deeply. I think a person's thoughtfulness should never be ignored or taken for granted. :o)


Anyway, I got lost at the pick-up point and finally found where he is waiting for me. Upon hopping into his car, we said our "Hellos" and "nice to meet you at lasts" to each other and drove off. AND it WAS really nice finally meeting him at last. I was excited and nervous. Before that we had exchanges in emails, a phone call and some SMS'es. Immediately I felt comfortable in his presence and that's a great big relief! heh-heh... It was a fun time trying to make sure we're on the right route and locate the movie place and checking out the ancient street directory he was using (the place we're going was not even on the street directory yet!).

One thing (out of the many other things) I like about him - he is unpretentious and gracious toward me. If he doesn't know something, he does not hide or pretends to know. And he being such an intelligent and talented fella - did not make me feel stupid or small for even a second. I was afraid that he'd probably think I'm a silly Bimbo .... (oh, I better don't use Bimbo - last I said I was a bimbo, the person next to me asked me "Aren't BIMBOs supposed to look PRETTY too?" Grrrrrr..rrrr..rrrrrr... ) ANYWAY - yah, I was afraid he'd find me silly and shallow and daft and DUH etc.... But to my delight, I was pretty much comfortable being my goofy self while I'm out with him! Isn't it awesome? Oh yes, and he made me feel wonderful about myself. *___* (Awwwwwwww.....)

Upon reaching the movie theatre, we collected the tickets (HEY! 3 tickets!! HEY! just 2 of us!!) and joined in the breakfast crowd. How glad am I we're in jeans and casual wear! (I'm in errrrr.... smart casual lah... wore a nice blouse and carried a red handbag I've not used for yonks). Most of the crowd consisting of families with kids are in their casual wear too. I got myself a nice cup of black coffee (to boot up the brain and look intelligent) and we chat a little bit while he ate some of the breakfast stuff. It was a pleasant time. Then we redeemed our pop-corns and cokes and entered the theatre - Show's gonna start soon...

Sweet#3: He let me have the empty seat next to me (Awwwwwww.....)
How considerate!! We have 3 tickets (and he said he had gotten 1 extra in case I wanna bring a friend along - oh so sweet ^_^ .... hmmm.... but why should I bring another person to play gooseberry? hahaha) and upon getting our seats, he let me have the empty seat next to me. I was so daft and I ask him "why leh?". Glad I asked. He said, "so that you can put your bag and stuff..." (Awwwwwwww......) Isn't he so considerate??!!!! :)

OK. I know this is a tad too dramatic, but don't you dare roll your eyes or give me the cheap look now! And yes, don't you dare do the face-palm (alamak) action too!!! Huuurrrrrrrmmph!!

AND THE MOVIE WAS GREAT!! I enjoyed it greatly! (probably because I've not read this book). Had no idea porters can be that hairy and scary! DUH. *_* and while it was getting cold in the cinema, we snuggled up... (bahahaha.... never did lah - nothing happened lah, there's armrest in between anyway, hur-hur).

After the show we decided to have lunch together. To decide between which restaurant, we played scissors-paper-stone. (COOL!! Can't believe he's willing to come down to my level!!) He won, so we went to Country Manna. And yes, this needs special mention too - I was feeling cold from the cinema despite the layers of blubber for internal insulation. Upon going into the restaurant, he asked to be seated in a warmer corner and immediately asked for warm water for both of us. (Awwwwwwwwwww......) Isn't that sweet? (of course, you cynical people will probably say *KNS* he feeling cold too lah -- well, I bet he was, he's skin and bones and hot-blooded human of course he MIGHT be feeling cold too! So???)

Lunch was on him (aiyo, haha, and again, OOOOhhhhhh so sweet....) and we had a great time just talking and laughing about work life friends family relationships etc...And I talk MOST of the time, hur-hur - poor fella, I think I even cut him off several times when he finally gets to speak... (yikes!). I don't know how long we stayed, maybe 2 hours - I probably wore him out from all my ramblings - but I think we left around 3.30pm?? Well, doesn't matter. AND HE SENT ME HOME. Yes, ALL THE WAY HOME......

Sweet#4: He said I'm nice to hang out with.. (Awwwwwwww.......)
I think on our way to the lift or somewhere, he said this to me - that hey I'm nice to hang out with and he finds me unpretentious..... (Awwwww...) I could have hugged him and give him a peck on the cheek. So sweet hor, so sweet of him to say that hor? hur-hur...
(and I think after reading all these, he'll be VERY AFRAID to say anymore nice things to me liao. wah ha ha ha ha ha..!!!)

Sweet#5: He pat-pat me on my head! (Awwwwwww.... Awwwww......)
This is the killer stroke!
In my life I have a super soft-spot.... in my romantic fantasy....
That is the "big-brother" sayang-sayang pat on the head thingie.
NO ONE HAS EVER DONE THAT. Well, no one has ever had the chance anyway! heh.
And I think my best friend is the only one who knows this "soft-spot" of mine. (maybe a few more buddies lah, during girltalk) -- One killer stroke like that can melt my entire heart.
Guess what he did?? I'm sure he had not the faintest idea!!! I bet he does this to everyone and its a natural thing to do!! But....
Upon reaching my place, I thanked him for the great time and for asking me out (oh yes, he also thanked me for coming out!!!??? Awwwwwww.....), and as I turned to get out of the car.... *pat-pat* HE PATTED ME ON MY HEAD. (Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...........)
For a moment I was stunned.... and then I squealled in.. errr-hem...... pleasure and surprise! Heh-heh, the only thing I could manage at that moment was to say (very spontanously) "Ahahaha~...hey~ I LIKE that~!" *smile-smile-blush-blush*
And the door closes and the hero drove into the sunset. (errr... maybe too early for sunset, oh well)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So there!
Romantic or not? *giggle-giggle-giggle*
I guess not. Upon reading, its really quite a lame attempt at jazzing it up. hahahaha.... nevertheless, it's better than just : "Oh I met a friend for a movie last saturday, we had lunch after that and he sent me home. We had a great time, hope to do it again soon". Right? Anyway, it's for my memory collection, so it doesn't really matter how you feel about it. heh-heh...

And I trust folks, that you won't get the wrong ideas - heh-heh..... The account has been retold swaying towards romantic indications -- Sighhhh......It's just the kind of romantic notion every girl has! Sighhh......

As for you, my dear sweet-musician friend, (YES, YOU!) I dedicate this blog entry to you, dearie. It's not meant to embarrass you nor poke fun at anything at all. It is truly the tweetie-style - MY WAY - of remembering you for how wonderful you are, and for making me feel so wonderful about me, and a great day out. (haha... beginning to sound KNS liao). You have been really sweet and I really appreciate you for it. So, you stay wonderful the way you are, eh? ^_~ and let's hang out & have fun again soon! My treat!! NARNIA?? I can get free tickets too! haha!!

And now, back to real life.

So, if anyone of you ladies after having read this, wanna get to know this sweet darling musician, leave me your contacts and *wink-wink* I can help make the connections. hur-hur-hur....

Wooohoooo! Can't believe I wrote from 11.33pm to 3.33am! Time for bed! *_*
And may tomorrow be great!
