:: Yoshi Time! ::
let's try to make this short and sweet.my last week with my current company, has been quite a bang. i'm glad i managed to stay till this week to b a part of the the whole marketing rig.
last night i had a company event at rouge. started out boring.. i mean not tt talking to my colleagues were boring, but tt the crowd was jus not.. mingling enuff. everyone was hiding in their comfortable little circles.. including myself i guess. but someone had to make the 1st move and break the ice! raymond and i walked over to a table of 2 guys, which obviously looked like one of them were korean and the other, a japanese. as we got closer, we peered at each other's name tags. we were all of the same counterpart. they were from our korean and japanese office respectively. i wish we had such hunks in our singapore office! *YOSHI!*
the japanese was extremely cute in trying to converse with english, but the honest truth was his english was realli not bad, cuz i cud understand him! i guess maybe he wasn't confident with his english.
so when we were talking abt world cup, or rather they were talking abt it (y do the men nv get sick of it?!) all i cud mumble were, ronaldo, kewell, beckham.. and nakata. haha. and when the cute japanese guy heard nakata, he had a weird smile on his face.
so i asked him, "why? wat's with nakata?"
struggling with the reply, he answered, "you kno in japan, everyone knows something abt him. but outside of japan, no one knows."
very curious now, "wat? wat issit?"
awkward smile again, "nakata.." with a slight pause he continued, "is gay."
eyes widened, "NO! how cud it b? how do u kno?!"
smiling happy now like he hit the jackpot, "cuz u kno, i haf frens who r gay, so in their circle of frens, news travel fast."
staring straight at him cuz i wanted to catch more glimpses of him and not cuz i was realli devastated by the newly acquired news, "oh no.. tt is so sad! he is so cute!"
looking more interested in me now, he continued, "in japan, when i tell this to the girls who like nakata, they cry." and ends the sentence with an amazed laugh.
i quickly backed, "i wud too! jus tt i am feeling quite happy now so the tears can't come out."
we both laughed.
tt was abt the end of our substantial conversation. the rest of the night, he added a few words here and there.. as did i. and before long, i was making my way home.. cuz.. it was getting late.. and i was getting a lil tipsy.. so as not 2 complicate matters i thot it wud b wise to leave. if he had stopped me from going, i wud haf most probably asked him out to somewhere else. :p it's easy to say all the "if-s" but i kno i wud nv haf the guts to ask anyone out. all my in imagination only!
so anywaes, tt was my "yoshi" episode. i realised after i started talking abt yoshi, i totally left out the korean guy, which i totally forgot his name too. haha. well, he was more interested in me than yoshi was. it was sooo obvious! at one point, my colleague had to come between me and him cuz he was getting much too close.
i alwaes attract the wrong kind, i guess.
i think i had stayed off men (other than my bf) for too long, makes a certain part of me wanna go out and haf some fun.
but i kno.. it's tt phase, and it will pass. :)
