GAME OR IS IT?

GAME OR IS IT?

been thinking lately about whether in certain situations

we tend to read the writing on the wall

when there actually isn’t anything written on the wall.

SCENE A.

Face lights up as boy meets girl through a common friend.

Boy gives that “I’m Interested” look

The three (or more) have a conversation and everything seems to have gone well.

A few meetings later

After probably 2 or more “bump-into-each-other’s”

at a common joint,

Totally ignoring….

boy pretends not to remember meeting girl…

when “forced” to say hello due to a common friend

Now is this just ‘game’ or is it really possible for someone

not to remember meeting you after more than 2 interactions?

SCENE 2.

Boy and girl have a connection.

More often than not if simply friends,

Short message service responses are almost immediate

if not for a valid reason likely to be explained..

When there could be something else there…

Boy takes his sweet time responding

regardless of the content of the text

Girl feels guilty complaining

for fear of coming off as needy.

Girl is pissed off.

Girl moves on or rather appears to.

Boy responds with lame excuse if any

and continues conversation like all is gravy..

is it possible to be that clueless really?

SCENE 3.

Boy :hey, we should go for a  (insert movie/lunch/concert/bash/some sort of gathering)

next week

Girl: sounds cool (*hiding excitement*)

Girl:which would be better evening/weekend?

Boy: You decide

Girl: cool,weekend it is…

Week comes,

girl wonders whether the plan is still in order but doesnt want to be the one to ask.

Weekend comes,

girl gets dressed up just in case but boy does not contact her..

Over the weekend boy and girl happen to meet while out with friends

either

boy: You look nice,what’s the occasion

OR

boy:What happened? we were meant to meet up

After several attempts at hinting have failed miserably

girl:Oh yah…(not amused and pretending not to remember..)

Really???

What the *@!”$^ (beans) man??????!

if this is a Game

or Game as it is called,

I don’t want to play no more!

DEUCES

10 NOT SO ODD THINGS I’VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO…..

10 NOT SO ODD THINGS I’VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO…..

1.FAINT

I know most of the times this would not necessarily be a good thing,

because its likely due to a health issue,

but I just wonder what it would feel like to faint maybe,

due to shock at meeting one of my celebrity knight’s in shining armour e.g

2.LOSE MY VOICE

You know how sometimes someone gets a cold/flu

…or sings so much that the vocal

cords are strained…

I want me none of that

but I think the husky voice that results is sooo cool!!!

3.KEG STAND

heeeey nobody wants to voluntarily pass out…

in a drunken stupor,

or rather i’d like to think so..

but I suspect my tolerance would be not so much…

4.DINE AND DASH

too bad my conscience wouldn’t allow me…

my mum always told me such,and the equivalents such as driving off at a gas

station without paying result in someone else paying for it,

probably the attendant/waiter/waitress in question…

wouldn’t want that on my hands…

5.MISTLETOE EFFECT

hopefully this would be with a significant other

and not a random bloke (yeah who knew that’s how its spelt)

ok maybe you did :-)

6.DRAG RACE

I know,I know

Its dangerous and a better-not-go-there…nini thing

probably too many movies,

but why lie it sort of,kinda looks like it would kick a good one!

7.RIDE A HARLEY DAVIDSON

bicycles are as far as it goes for me…

speed is limited to ‘safe’

although i do wonder sometimes….

anyhoo  last i checked these babies were the baddest,

note: Last was quite a while back…

probably in the days of  Kwai Chang Caine KungFU

8.GET ONE OF THESE

ok maybe not that extreme,

a little subtler would do..

Truth is last time i had a piercing I was 6,

so I cant really remember if it hurt too much,

but I imagine this would..

that coupled with the fact that the wound leaves one prone to

an increased risk of infection and the wound could close up in

a couple of hours/days should

one take the ring off…

makes me doubtful that I will get one ever…

But hey,if you have one,Go You!!!

9.READ THE BIBLE FROM COVER TO COVER

All the answers to life’s questions should be in there..

if we look hard enough..

There were/are? parts of the world where this is forbidden/illegal

10. BREAK A GUINESS WORLD RECORD

Easier said than done folks!




oohs and aaahs

oohs and aaahs

So i was really excited to go to church

this sunday because i hadnt gone in a while.

So i took a cab as i was running late and i dint want to miss

praise and worship.so

anyway i was really happy i went to church this week cz

my joy was renewed i cant explain it but

I think i may be on my way back to where i am supposed to be.

So after church my friend and I left immediately as she wanted to watch the

game where her team was playing.Now there usually is a bus but by the time other

people had said their hi’s and goodbye’s and where we were going was the last destination,

we saw it fit to walk home.

So i forgot to mention that i haven’t worn heels in a really,really long time and

I had decided to rock a pair that morning.

So i told my girlfriend we would have to walk slowly if I

was to make it to where we were going.

So as we were leaving two of our friends joined us n we walked together.

So i was talking to one and her the other.

Out of the blue it was like the pavement had some magnetic force that was attracting my shoes because like every 5 mins my shoes would slip off

and i had to improvise and act all cool,calm and collected looking behind every few minutes

to draw attention away from myself.

all the while my nose decides “its my birthday ,I’m going to run”

the horror i dint have any tissue with me,and the wind was just nasty

all this time i’m trying to act cool and maintain the conversation we were having.

I felt like that kid in nursery school who has a choice of either letting their nose run or……

Well,all i can say is a lot of skill was involved in maneuvering that situation .

aaaaw so nway the guys left us at some point n i was relieved cz at least i could

remind my friend that we were supposed to be walking slowly.

So anyway did i mention i live on the top floor of my building.

well,that was the longest walk i’ve had to take this year.

was it worth it ?i don’t know really

i know beauty is pain but that was torture

i should have just said something earlier….
