and the guys just get funnier...

i haven't been doing this as much as i used to... partying 2 nights in a row. but this weekend was one of those times.

the party girl and i along with some other friends attended a birthday party at a club and then in our typical fashion, we started club hopping. she picked up some british guy from the birthday party who was heading to another club. so we went to that club to meet up with him. while we were there, we hung out with some german intern guys and suggested that we go to the club we always wind up at. us girls can get in for free 'coz we know the bouncers and club owners but we couldn't bring the guys in on a free ride so we told 'em to line up and then meet us inside. we never saw 'em. but of 'coz that doesn't phase us and soon later we got to know some australian and new zealander basketball players.

and that's when the funny began...

somehow i wound up talking to this australian guy whose parents were originally from russia and serbia. not long after he started laying it on me... telling me that he liked that i was confident enough to show my pretty face with my 'do, that i had nice eyes and that he wanted to kiss me. he asked if i wanted to go someplace quieter so we could talk. but then also said that he can't talk to me 'coz it makes him want to kiss me more. goodness. like i would actually fall for that 'let's go someplace quieter so we could talk' line. sure we were in a club. but we were in a courtyard lounging around in a seat. it was plenty quiet for us to talk. any place quieter would probably mean his house. as for the wanting to kiss me thing. well i'm glad that at least he didn't grab me. i did consider if i should just kiss him, perhaps a friendly one... or maybe not. but then i decided to exercise a lil more restrain. i should probably stop kissing random club guys haha!

later the girls decided to head to the second level of the club. the guys said they'd join us and we thought they were right behind... but apparently not. doesn't matter we always find our own fun. so we were just dancing upstairs and having a good time. except that as i was walking past, some guy smacked my butt. i spun around, gave him a death look and smacked him right back. if you do that, don't expect me to not reciprocrate it. and then as we were seated, some guy from san francisco came over and talked to me and pretty much expected me to go out and find him on the dance floor. i was tired and too nice and comfy in my seat.

but that said, the funniest thing of all didn't happen with any of the guys i met that night. the funniest thing was the text messages...

the australian psychologist guy texted me. he was chilling out at home and knew that i was out partying.

australian psychologist guy: if you want to sleep you know where to find me
jo: if i want to sleep, i'll just go home

he has to be kidding.

then i texted my london guy friend. we haven't contacted since the last time i talked to him briefly on IM. at first i told myself not to contact him. afterall i did tell him that i was giving him priority during this time when he's here and that he should let me know whenever he can make it so we can meet up. the ball is in his court. but that night i was just a lil bored and thinking of him so i texted him

jo: hey! are you out tonight?

i never got a reply from him. i must be the one kidding myself.

****

out of office eye candy and i are definitely having some telepathy going on.

i was just thinking of calling him to ask him bout something when he called. i told him bout the coincidence. after we were done with the work issue he called me bout and joking around bout some other work stuff in general as we always do, he asked what i wanted to call him bout.

jo: i wanted to ask you something
out of office eye candy: no sorry i'm not free tonight
jo: hahaha! how bout friday?
out of office eye candy: maybe. i have to check my schedule.
jo: hahaha!

actually what i wanted to call him bout is regarding a club that he told me he went to which i haven't been to. my friend who is based in dubai is coming back on thursday to get married over the weekend and she was thinking of holding a bachelorette party on friday night and one of her friends suggested that club. i outlined that to out of office eye candy and he suggested another club instead that i've been to and like. i in turn told my friend and it's been decided, friday night it's gonna be her bachelorette party night!

though some bachelorette party it's gonna be 'coz the boys are invited as well. hmm... maybe i should ask out of office eye candy along... haha!

****

my london guy friend just texted me. turns out he ran outta credits. okay... i can understand that. we're trying to meet up tomorrow...

the funny night my worst fear came true...

i had quite a laugh last night.

and not exactly in that usual 'haha' way you might imagine. i just had to laugh at how pathetic the situation was.

the yummy mommy and i went for a peace event where we sat around and just chilled out while jamming to the beatles. "all we are saying, is give peace a chance" it was interesting. definitely an eye opener. though at some points i thought that there was a potential anarchy going on. so much for peace.

but after all that chilling out, we just itched to do our usual thing. so we made our way to a pub that i've been to a few times before but where the yummy mommy has been making a regular appearance of late.

it looked promising. and i was having a good time. until i ran into an ex classmate of mine. it's funny how the only times i seem to meet him is when i run into him. and i've run into too many times in the last 7 years that i stopped being classmates with him. if i didn't know better that it was just a coincidence streak, i would think he was stalking me. anyhow i wasn't too bothered bout running into him though i don't usually like to run into people i know from my normal day life when i'm engaging in my lesser known night life. but then i made the mistake of seeing who he was hanging out with as he made his way across the room.

i saw prick04. oh my god!

i absolutely hate this. this is the thing i dread. i've been freaking out at the possibility of running into prick04. and in all likelihood given our track record, it's entirely possible. afterall one of the times we started seeing each other again was 'coz we ran into each other in a mall. but after all that i've been through... i really really really don't wanna see him ever again.

but by some cruel twist of fate, i did.

they were with some other girls that i don't recognise. and the ex classmate i ran into must have told prick04 that he saw me 'coz he turned in my generation just when i was looking. i admit that i did the uncool thing. i turned back sharply and then cursed a few times. i told the yummy mommy that i just saw the guy i used to date. "oh was it that guy?" she knew instantly which guy i must have seen in order to cause such a reaction in me. "yes, that guy" she asked if i wanted to leave. but i refused. i will not allow myself to be chased out of 'my turf' just 'coz of some loser guy. no, i chose to have fun instead.

and i guess i did have fun.

i ran into the australian psychologist guy again. i really need to stop all this running into people. he started telling me how i look better and better every time he sees me. he said that when he first met me, he thought i looked quirky but now he thinks i look hot. i thought that it's weird that he thinks i look quirky. shouldn't i be quirky instead of looking quirky? what does looking quirky mean? and dude, you only met me like 3 times.

anyhow i was friendlier than i was the last time i saw him which was last week. he was there with a girl. they seemed to be somewhat together or something 'coz not long after they started smooching right in front of me. i was actually rather amused with it all. the girl scoots off to get a drink and he just spent the better part of that time flattering me, and then runs back by her side and kisses her? too funny! that just proves my point.

so i didn't spend my entire night worrying bout prick04 or watching the australian psychologist guy and his girl kiss and laughing. a black guy from chicago started a conversation with me. he was nice. and then later a guy from LA talked to me, along with his asian guy friend from san francisco. it was all good. the guy from LA was kinda cute and it was a pity that i didn't get to talk to him much 'coz soon after the yummy mommy wanted to leave for another club.

somehow in this whole crazy night, it was still okay. sure it was really hard to have to walk directly pass prick04 twice as i went to the ladies and back. but i was just really determined not to let him change what i wanted to do. though i admit that my first attempt at walking to the ladies ended up in me turning around and walking back to find my guts.

prick04 hasn't tried to contact me. not that i was expecting it. i mean why should he when after we kissed, he didn't even contact me for the next 6 months. it would have been funny if he did contact me though. i can almost predict what he would say. "oh i've been trying to find the courage to contact you. sorry for everything." i know this 'coz he's done that before. that was after over a year of not contacting me. so maybe 6 months is still too soon. anyhow i don't care. and i mean it. i. don't. care.

the australian psychologist guy did text me today though. i find that funny too.

oh all these boys are just hilarious. i hope to find one that makes me laugh... just not in this way...

5 months later...

it doesn't usually take me nearly 5 months to confirm a random guy's name. but this time i did.

i met the australian psychologist guy almost 5 months ago. and somehow i never really managed to get his name. then again that's not entirely too surprising since it's usually way to noisy in clubs for any real conversation. i just had this vague idea of what his name was but i never did confirm it.

so we've been in touch on/off all this while though we never actually did meet up. he'd always say that we should go out and i'll be my usual yeah. but it's not my thing to actually set a day. at least for the first meeting, he has to set a day.

i didn't really think i'd see him again... wasn't even sure if i would recognise him even if i did. but late friday night (more like early saturday morning), as i was coming out of a club with the yummy mommy, i saw him waiting in line to go into the club. he looked familiar but i wasn't entirely sure who he was though again i had that vague idea. it was actually him who called me. as i stared at him blankly for a minute, he told me his name. and then it clicked. it was the same name that i had that vague idea of. apparently it mustn't have been that noisy in the club the first night we met.

later the next day, he texted me telling me how great i looked and how we should go out for dinner. i said my usual sure and told him to let me know when he was free.

he didn't reply. just like how he never did reply the past few times.

and once again it's not like i actually care all that much either...

rounds of birthday celebrations

it's my party girl's birthday. and she has decided that she wants to celebrate it for a week. which basically means crazy times.

it started on friday. my party girl, the yummy mommy and i went to the usual pub that we frequent. of 'coz who should i meet but not-so-shy texan. i told him that he must be stalking me 'coz i'm seeing him everywhere. later in the nite he asked why is it that we never went out, i told him straight up that he said that he had deleted my number. he admitted that he still had my number stored in his laptop and said that he'd contact me. well we'll see. anyhow i was having fun that nite. the australian psychologist guy texted me and we were flirting through text messaging. and i was also talking to a few other guys including one married guy who kept telling me how i was his type and that he couldn't understand how an attractive woman like me was single. yeah well... married. so not going there.

the partying continued on saturday. the 3 of us started out at our usual pub again. we hung out with some of the regular guys. later all of us proceeded to a club to dance it out. i really needed to dance and was just having a lot of fun. somehow i wound up dancing with one of the guys who we were there with. i think it started 'coz we realised that the buttons on his shirt were easy to open... so i was unbuttoning and buttoning his shirt haha! there was this guy who came up to me and told me that i was his type. is that the latest pick up line? his wife also told me that that was her husband. well married is definitely not my type. so i called him on him being married and that he should be telling his wife that she's his type. i also danced with this brazilian guy. we lost each other for a bit but when i was on the way out of the club, we ran into each other. and then we kissed. it was really random. i didn't even know his name. crazy times.

i think i have a lucky bracelet

recently my mom has picked up the art of jewellery making. and she made me a lovely purple beaded bracelet for me. i don't think she realised that it's starting to look like that's my lucky bracelet.

i've only worn it twice so far. the first time was 2 saturdays ago. and the second time was on thursday. and both times when i was out partying. and both times i've met new guys.

the yummy mommy and i met up on thursday for a lil ladies night free drinks and fun. and fun we were certainly having, just dancing it up. then she ran into an australian guy that she and my party girl had met previously in another club. we got introduced but since i thought that he had only just picked her up, i didn't care too much and continued dancing and doing my own thing. it was only later that the guy and i got a chance to talk a lil that i warmed up to him more. he was from a part of australia that is close to my heart so that was a starting point of conversation for us. it didn't take too long before australian psychologist guy told me that he felt like he wanted to talk to me more and asked me for my number. though not before he was all huggy veggy with me and after he asked for a kiss. i gave him my number and left soon after. he texted me almost immediately and again the next day hinting that he wanted to meet up by asking me when i wanted to come by to collect my easter eggs. i was hanging out with some friends and not in a flirty mood so i didn't take the bait and told him that i was going for a movie. he seems pretty cool though. not my type but i wouldn't mind talking to him. afterall he's from a part of australia close to my heart. besides i'm such a sucker for the australian accent.

yes, it must be all that bracelet's doing...
