Ladies and gentlemen...
IT IS FINALLY RAINING.
As my grandmother would say whenever it starts to pour
"Faster ah , take out the buckets so that we can save money by watering the plants with rain water !"
Had a girl's night out @ ChinaBlack with Yan , Ration , Elise and KJ and no , i did not manage to go to Thumper's because i was having too much fun at Black to head there. Hehe.
For the first time in my life i actually entertained thoughts of picking up a guy !!
During my clubbing session last wed , i couldn't help but notice this incredibly cute looking bartender who has small eyes and *shrieks* a goatee who bears an uncanny resemblance to Nakata ( Yep , that famous jap footballer ) and i told myself "The next time i come here i must get to know his name"
So yeah , i tried to talk to him yesterday as the club was closing but failed terribly.
I guess i must have come across like an idiot to be ordering 3 glasses of iced water ( had already drank quite alot before that ) within a few minutes when every other lady is taking advantage of the free flow of housepours but of course my main purpose of ordering the drinks was him la !
Every glass of iced water on the table was a reminder of my defeat because i had planned to talk to him when he was filling up my glass but somehow my words got stuck in my throat and all i could mutter was a shaky "Thank you" as he passed me my drink.
3 glasses of iced water = 3 failed attempts because i simply could not gather up the courage to speak to him.
I had good reasons for being apprehensive.
Major obstacle 1 ) Shyness . I'm not usually a bashful person but hmm. I wonder where my usual guts went to .
Major obstacle 2) Fear of rejection. I would so make the first move if i had Fiona Xie's bod , Joanne Peh's or Wong Li lin's face but unfortunately the grim reality is , i don't . Men are visual creatures :p LOL.
Major obstacle 3) Stigma. YEP. Society can be liberal but some narrow mindsets are permanent. Besides i've asked around and some guys actually don't like the idea of girls making the first move although i suspect that they are lying . Can someone please confirm my suspicions ? HA!
I guess the next time i should ensure that i've had at least 5 glasses of Vodka Cranberry before asking for iced water again. :P
In the end , i could only look at him wistfully as i sipped on my iced water and Yan laughed at me for being such an imbecile and it didn't help that a little while later 3 girls were seen flirting with him as they waited for their drinks !
Never mind , there's always a next time :p
Time to head out now .. Later folks !! =)
