SELF

I haven't really done anything majorly embarrassing in the new year. Until 2 days ago.

I elbowed some poor dude in his stomach whilst trying to take out my wallet.

Me: *thinking I just lightly hit someone in the arm* Sorry!
Poor dude: *rubbing his stomach* Oh it's okay la.
Me: Holy shit did I hit you in the stomach?! Oh my god I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry.
Poor dude: Ha ha it's okay la.
Me: Oh my goodness so sorry okay.

Huihui: Did you just elbow someone in his stomach?
Me: .....Ya.
Huihui: Ha ha ha ha ha.

Thinking about it. Last Saturday might be the start of self embarrassment.

Decided to take the stairs up to class after buying coffee. You have to pass through 2 doors before you actually get to the stairs, and this random dude just sprung out from nowhere and scared the living daylights out of me.

I was so shocked, I literally stood there in silence with my coffee miraculously still in hand, my eyeballs dilated to about x10 and my other hand over my heart before whispering meekly "oh my god". The dude was stumped by my reaction too, seeing how he just stood there and stared while I quickly side-shuffled away.

Was 1/3 up the stairs when he decided to speak up.

Dude: Hey I'm sorry!
Me: Ah! Ha ha it's okay.

I realised later that he is in all of my Saturday classes. He might have recognized me, seeing how he gave me a half apologetic-but-your-reaction-is-priceless smile whenever he sees me.

I'm a class act.

Anyone else thinks that this year is just flying by? I've felt this way ever since the end of 2012. Thought that perhaps the new year would usher in a slower pace but apparently not. And I have a feeling that this year wil just continue to fly by until after the finals in April.

Fast fast fast past.
