So with me doing nothing for the next few weeks, I'm now subjected to more TV than usual. But after watching the commercial for Match.com where the guy hold an umbrella for the girl, it triggered one of the moments I've had in life where I just want to slap myself over and over again.
Story begins on a rainy day in Houston when I was still going to school at UH. On my way to Japanese, I saw this one girl that's not so much as dashing in the rain, but was still kinda walking pretty fast. I thought to myself how horrible it must be for her. So out of kindness, and maybe curiosity, I ran after her and held my umbrella over her and offered to walk her to class. Grateful, and cute!!, as she was, she thanked me and we talked a bit. Her class wasn't very far, but in the rain it felt like miles. I forgot what we talked about or pretty much anything about the girl at all. Only thing I can remember is that I got her to her class and I got her number from there (yay me!).
I smiled and parted ways with her while thinking of how I probably made someone's day better, and of course of how cute she was. About two minutes later, I just realized something. After smiling and being disoriented, I recollected the entire event all the way up to me parting ways and noticed how I entered her number into my phone. I dialed the digits. I entered her name. I closed my phone. What's missing? I FORGOT TO PRESS SAVE! Yes, I got a girl's number and lost it in a couple of minutes. By then, I've forgotten her name, her number, and slowly, what she looks like.
I didn't want to seem desperate and find her again. Though the thought of waiting outside of her class did cross my mind, but that was way too creepy and I'm sure all girls would agree that they wouldn't want that in a guy. So in agony and in defeat, I dismissed the entire situation and went on with my life.
Somehow, I thought that maybe fate would actually get me to see her again, but with the way my life is going, I really don't think so. I don't know. But what I do know is that I'm a fucking idiot.
*sigh*
