would u be my valentine???
so yesterday was Valentine's Day.....
woke up late....by 10 mins....(somehow 10 mins early morning seems to be quite longer than in the day)
got dressed....wore my pink shrug and a mini denim skirt.....didn't feel quite comfortable but what the heck...it's Valentine's!!and suppose to go out with kerry later.
drove to college....arrived at 7.05......slept in the car until 7.30. got up and walked to college.....
as i walked in, saw ppl trying to sell other ppl roses and chocolates....avoid them as much as possible =P
walked towards the back stairway because it's more secluded.....u see, in taylors, ppl can see up girls' skirts when they walk up the stairs. so i thought, i wanted to avoid as many ppl as i can when i walked up.
i saw this indian guy in front of me walk up the front stairway. as i made my way to the back, i saw him again. i tried to slow down my pace so that he could overtake me and not be behind me....very dangerous. and so he did, he was in front of me.
then, he turned around, looked at me and this was our conversation:
guy: u look very familiar...do i know u from somewhere?
me: i don't think so....(yea right la....'seen me before'....)
guy: oh...maybe its someone elsa la......r u from subang?
me: no......
guy: ic....ermm.....wat course r u taking?
me: a levels.....
guy: r u new???
me: NO...(kept looking down the hall way......was sooosoo near my class and yet so far....thinking wat the heck was this guy getting at...)
guy: er..r u rushing to class???
me: err.....no (thinking it would be too obvious to say 'yes' because all classes start at 8....but soon regretted)
guy: liddat ah.....u wanna get a drink together now?? we can catch up and talk.....
me: (i'm like...WHAT!!!!) No, i'd rather not.....
guy: why not??
( one of my classmate, jian loong, walked passed....tried to signal him to 'save me' but he's so blurr)
me: err....i think it's a bad idea...
guy: erm.....then can i get ur number? so that i can call u up sometime?
me: no.......u can't...
guy: come on.....do u hav a cell phone?
me: no, i don't (clearly was a lie....and he knew it...it was the cue to 'bug off!!!'
guy: erm...nice meeting u then.....
i just walked away without saying anything.
talk bout the 'cheesy'-est lines ever.....blaghh......so disgusting man....so ruined the start of Valentine's....talk about desperation.....eeeeeyyyyyuuuuucccckkkk!!!!!!!!!!
k...that was that.......fast foward to after college.....
rushed back home.....kerry came to my house to pick me up......blindfolded me in the car.......was quite annoyed bout it.....'is it really necessary?'..........hahaha.....the mysterious destination was 'his house'......he wanted me to be the one to open the door....
there on the table was.....a bouquet of roses.....a box of ferrero rocher.......a teddy bear........a funky night lamp......and cutlery.......hehehehe.......he prepared lunch for two.
he went back into the kitchen and i heard him getting really frustrated- he forgot to get fries.......finally he came out.....with two plates....on them were a piece of chicken and coleslaw......then he took out blackpepper gravy and two bottles of wine and sparkling grape juice........(can u believe it? he cooked everything....well of course his mom is aunt doris la)
he took the wine opener and tried to screw it into the cork but while he was doing so.....one of the handle broke...........and then the other.....so the only way to take out the cork was to pull it out........when he pulled........the screwdriver part broke and got stuck in the cork.....
by this time.....kerry was looking embarrased and nervous and frustrated......to me, it was really funny la......then i told him no need to drink wine la......but he said 'then waste my money buying it" so then i told him to push the cork inside the bottle.....so the wine had bits of cork when we poured it out.......then we ate..
and that was main course....then it was dessert......which was carrot-walnut-cheese cake.....really went well with the wine....but was too full to finish it......
when we finished everything, i had to go back because the comp guy was supposed to come to fix the computer.....and we left.
so that was 2006 Valentine's Day celebration for me....weird and funny..but definitely memorable.
