It must have been the 2 bottles and 4 cans of green teas I consumed, all in one day. Because of the slight change in brain hyperactivity and hence the tendency to smile a lot and becoming extremely friendly, I found myself deeply immersed in a conversation with a stranger. For 4 hours, we talked like we've been friends forever and know each other inside out. It was just like talking to a long lost girlfriend, except that this one's much older.
I want to also add that my saturday was filled with serendipity. I finally saw someone whom I've known for 6-7 years. He and I might come across to most as naive but really, we both once loved each other deeply. Now that I've gotten older and outgrown my addiction to the then-crazily popular irc (not sure if I've become any wiser though), I do realise how preposterous the idea of having loved someone without actually having physical contact (ie, eye contact) of any form, is. ohwells. puppy love lah horrr. In any case, I didn't go up to him and say hi because he was all sweaty after his gig. ohhh he kicked ass. :) The next time I see you, I'll say hi okay? Promise.
I also saw someone I used to date for quite a bit. That was pretty darn awkward but I tried with all my might to be nonchalant. ummm I think it worked. And then saw riana, eli, hidayah and khaiyisha ohhh and camy. It was at that juncture where I concluded that I've had an overdose of green tea. This is because, I didn't do as per what I normally do when I bump into people, which is to -
1. ignore and pretend they didn't see me and I didn't see them or
2.smile widely and wave frantically or
3.go over to give the salaam and chat a bit
Instead, I went ballistic, got waaaaay too excited and started hugging those girls so tight, I think I almost crushed their ribs. hur hur.
In any case, I think that the stranger (still remember her? she was mentioned earlier) was tbeing too generous with compliments. Boy, did she butter me up and smother me. She said I have such lovely expressive eyes and she adores my physique. Why would anyone want to have a body like mine!? We were in a conversation where food was the subject and I told her that I am crazy about indian food especially thosai and naan. She asked me if I own a couple of punjabi suits or indian accessories of sorts and told her in fact I do. She immediately concluded that I may end up marrying an Indian man. I just couldn't believe my ears when I heard her say that. Sebab mak aku pun kata yang aku akan mendirikan rumahtangga dengan seorang ambeley. semua gara-gara suka tonton filem hindi dan makan thosai dan naan. hur hur. Anyways, as I was saying, this new-found friend of mine, she finds me extremely attractive (despite the hideous breakouts. now I'm beginning to wonder if her eyesight's fine). Wouldn't it be nice if all those had come out of a man's mouth? sigh.
After the gig ended, we exchanged hugs, bade farewell and wished each other well. The day was well-spent. The rain made just made everything better. It was lovely. Yeaaaaa, the aunty actually sat through the gig. Cool kan?
Okay, I shall now get Lost In Translation.
hur hur.
I just keep getting weirder. It's the green tea. It has to be.
