Friends with benefits?? :s....Part1


o....k! friends with benefits? really?

There i am on the train, checking for my seat number and with my peripheral vision i sight this dude- lets call him the 'train dude'- checking out his breath and looking at me. At this point i'm thinking, 'you know what, i hope that's my seat right next to him'. Please note that i had no ulterior motives, just trying to expand my network.What do you know, he's actually on my seat. I nicely told him i had reserved the seat and he apologized and scooted over to the next available one which was just beside it.

Being the girl that i am which is quite antisocial reserved, i settle in and start thumbing away on my blackberry. We seat for close to an hour typing on our blackberries until he initiated a convo (can't remember how) as follows:

train dude: Do you go there? He asks pointing at my university hooded sweater

me: yea, do you?

train dude: yea, actually, i went there.

me: *ever the interviewer* Really? Which set? What course did you study?

train dude: Yep, i graduated with the last set...studied Project Management

me: oh, real nice

*****at this point lets shorten 'train dude' to td *****

td: what do u study there?

me: Chemical Engineering

td: wow, smart girl!

me: Amen!

td: laughs

then we get talking.....i never give out my number but in this case i did, td seemed smart, not like one of 'em guys who would call you to talk nonsense (yea, like its ever written on the face). We exchange 'nice to meet yous' and depart. 

The next couple of days, he sent innocent texts sparingly which was alright. Then the calls began....still ok. Then long phone conversations...at this point, warning bells are going off! Its not like its a problem but with the tone of conversations, the innuendos, one can pretty much guess what each party is interested in. I probably led him on knowingly unknowingly but that was it, i wasn't into him 'like that'. 

td never felt completely 'safe' with me cos i kinda knew all the guy tricks and was sorta immune to them so much so that he said that i hang out with too many guys. So i started fishing for his true intentions, on some level i guess it was a weird game for us both.

How did i know his plans??

  1. for starters, he only makes late night calls
  2. he sounds funny at some point in the conversation (almost like he's errm 'jerking off') then he says things like, 'say something nice to me'.....o..k. 'make me feel good'. WTH! and he said it almost like we were doing the deed.. if you know what i mean by that.
  3. for some reason he makes calls while looking at himself in the mirror (weird, yea?)
  4. Seriously, who tells someone he/she sees once (on a train i might add) to come visit and stay for a weekend?? like, seriously??

then one day:

td: why are you putting me through this?

me: through what?

td: you know i like you

me: who wouldn't 

**we both laugh**
to be continued...

...and that's what i reckon! xx

Meet the Blogger 2: A few of my favorite things

Yo, I'm back!.

So when i'm not trying to solve engineering problems and all, there are some things i absolutely love. I have decided to share some of these things today :). So, in no particular order....here goes..


A Good Read: Novels by Dean Koontz, Magazines any interesting piece of literature really. On the bus,at the beach, pool side, parks etc.



My Boyfy: *blushing* the only person who truely understands me,  my best friend (i sometimes forget he's my boyfriend.....i gross him out then he goes, 'hey! I'm your boyfriend, you know??...i'm like, 'hmmn...that's true!').
He could be really annoying sometimes, but even at those times, he's still the sweetest person in the world. I know thats so damn cliche, but it is what it is...mannie rocks!

Killer Heels: Nothing beats the instant sassiness that a nice pair of high heels give. Being about 5-3'', i tend to always wear heels...always! Not because, i don't like my height (i looove my height, i can practically switch between different heights as i please) but because, they just look good on me..hehehe!
Recently though, due to the weather, i've found myself mainly in winter boots. Plus the fact that i have to sometimes run to catch the bus to  my faculty doesn't help matters! Still love my heels though, so i find time and occassions for 'us' to have 'our' time lol

Playsuits: Now, that's a piece of clothing i really dig. The funny thing is, i don't have any of that in my walk-in closet!


Cool Ride...preferably a 'drop top': Yep! Another 'favorite thing' which i don't have (not yet, anyway ;))


 Now, look at that *dreamy eyes*. I can just imagine myself in that, cool shades on, my hair in the wind, music blaring....


Comedies: I love to laugh...if its funny, i wonna watch it. I know funny is subjective, for instance, a friend of mine (yea, i have a few of those) thinks How i Met your Mother isn't funny....i mean, who thinks that?? I think its absolutely hilarious, but that's just me.. I'm also into TV shows that follow a good story line like: Medical dramas (e.g Grey's Anatomy), Legal dramas (e.g The Good Wife), Greek, 90210, Gossip girl, Pretty little liars, Vampire Diaries....


Good Music + Singing + Dancing: There's something about music...it could be therapeutic, a special place to escape to.....i love rockin' to good music!


 Blah...blah...blah!...I am literally bored of talking about me. That's one more thing you should know about me. So, i guess this is where we call it a wrap today!

Before you go, here's a treat...its kinda old, but it doesn't matter. Here's how to enjoy it: increase the volume, sing along and simply rock with it! woohoo!!!


o.k, one more..


bye guys!

...and that's what i reckon! xx
