When you see things from another perspective

Found this on Meifeng's blog, i'd met her after work on Saturday and we'd gone frm Novena to TPY to get my sewing machine from Courts. i remember walking down the escalator after work and seeing him and going all gooey inside.

And then i saw KaiShen on the train. or rather, he saw me and didnt call me until i walked out at TPY. lol. no wonder there were so many giggles and muffled chuckles from the dudes standing beside me, it was KaiShen and his friends.

Here's how MF felt about the experience
she's occasionally hilarious when she thinks no one is looking ;)


"Met Grace at toa payoh for her sewing machine, which we failed to acquire again because the price went up to a difference of a whopping $80. Traveled back to Novena to see what Grace has to show me - that cute ice cream boy. She brought me to this stall and there was a dude sitting there, stoning. Grace always behave very peculiarly infront of good looking people while I just stoned at everything she says. Trying too hard to appear normal and not like oh-look-at-that-guy is always unattainable. We just talk too much or too little.
note: I don't stalk cute guys and neither does Grace( for a very long time already)

(Grace: Thank you for clearing that up, i dont want people to think i go around staring at every guy i meet, lol and yes i demand a full explanation of what peculair things i do)

Well we were shopping weren't we? There is absolutely nothing wrong with walking past the shop for a few times! I mean, we need to walk right?

(me again: once, twice...do you think he'll notice if we pass by a third time??)

ok STOP STARING AT US we'll go we'll just freaking get out of your sight!

(me: okay i dont think he - HE'S LOOKING HERE?!?!)

hahah ok epic stalking day. The last look I saw on his face was something that read "I know you both are staring at me so I'm gonna stare at you with narrowed eyes until - AHAH! YOU JUST STARED AT ME! *narrows eyes further...*" before I pulled Grace out of the shop opposite and far from square 2. That's why I never try to look at people(cute or not) - I always get paranoid about getting caught when what I'm doing is totally normal."

i have to say, though, i totally did not see him when MF said he saw us. all i saw was the ice cream counter. totally wrong angle. MF, on the other hand, got the full blast of his squinty-eyed-w-suspicion gaze. lucky her, i bet it was cute. lol.

laughed real loud when i read her post. it was a cool experience, albeit a short one. i guess in time i'll remember it fondly, but for now it's bittersweet. More bitter than sweet, but time'll fix that :)

I have great friends, thank you Meifeng, for going with me and putting up with my nonsensical chatter and ice cream when you were sick.

Thank you Elizabeth for going with me and playing along so i could get a chance to talk to him. And for going back to get ice cream when you didnt want any so i could have another chance to ask what i didnt before, even though i didnt in the end but thanks for giving me that chance.

Thanks Yingyu, Kanika, Pris and Fiona for all agreeing to eat ice cream with me tmr (YY), Friday (k & p) and near future (fiona) when i work but it wont be necessary no more to buy ice cream. Visiting me upstairs will suffice.

And i guess i have to thank you, mystery ice cream guy whom i shall never see again, for giving me something to look forward to whenever i had shifts at novena. And for putting up with my probing chatter. And that napkin when you thought i'd like, gotten ice cream on my face. Lol, that was funny. But the lemon flavour WAS incredibly sour after the pink guava. Not to mention letting me try all those flavours without me asking. And most of all, most of all for letting me know you'll never be there again so that i wouldnt have to look around no more.

Thank you all :)
