Dates: Between Dec 23 to Dec 27
Have you ever had experiences such as not knowing relatives that even existed throughout your entire life of lets say 16 years? Honestly speaking if you think that I am talking rubbish, then you might as well just click on the cross.
For about 2 weeks, I was busy as I was invited by my grandfather to join some relatives from all over the world to have some very exquisite food. There were relatives from Australia, China, America and Switzerland. Seriously speaking, I actually forgotten how to address most of them. Its not as easy as saying 'Hi Uncle! or Hi Aunty!', you have to greet them in Chinese terms which I often get really confused with. Well, most of them are familiar to me eventhough I only meet them once or twice a year.
As I said, most of them. The other 10% was a rather awkward moment. You see, I must really blame my grandfather. He did not tell me that the Switzerland relatives were joining us for lunch and so I was thinking, ' Ah oh well, another lunch with no blond hairs on the table. ' So somehow my brain turns of the 'blond colour vision'. Yes I am writing in a very stupid way but I really can't help it.
"Hello Malcolm! Do you remember me?" a very frenchy voice spoke to me. I turned my head around and I was speechless. My mind was blank. "er...er... yea sure I don't! I am so sorry I have forgotten who you are!" and I was thinking at the back of my head, why in the world would I say that? Then I realised that she thinks that I was joking so oh well, I shall do it with all the swiss girls...
Then... suddenly, a guy popped up. Oook, I really really never meet him before. "Hello, have we met?" "Hmm...che...no no we have not."
Oh boy what a relieve...
Well, at first I thought he was a very shy guy but as days go by I realised he was kinda cool and extremely funny. For girls, I am sure they will find him cute.
Oh and the swiss girls, I have met them before, I have no idea why and how at that very moment my mind went blank... I guess beauty can also fry people's brains.
