yes.. i went for speed dating.. but not cos i want to go there but Josh wanted us to accompany him there.. so me and ying abandoned our bfs on a fri nite to go speed dating.. I asked Dyann along as well cos i thot she would be interested..
We chose this Jap restaurant at Boat quay as that was the best retaurant on the speed dating menu. We were there only for the food so we had to choose a nice restaurant.
We were late cos there was a jam.. by the time we reached there were already many many pple there.. i was damn hungry and hope they would start dinner soon. We each had a no. i am contestant number 17 and ying 18.. Josh was already there he was sitting there quietly and not making an effort to talk to the girls.. he had that look "why am i here? i am too good for the pple here".. sigh wat are we going to do about him.. dyann on the other hand was doing fine and talking to the person opposite her..
Finally it started at almost 8.. all e girls were suppose to sit on 1 side at their respective numbers. The guys have 3 minutes to talk to every girl before moving on to the next one... When dinner was ready, we stopped to eat and see heng suay who was opposite you and you had to eat dinner with him.. The food was not good at all and i had waited so long before they served dinner that i was not hungry anymore..
i kena a guy who was a nature and i tink i made him lose hope in finding a girl who loves nature.. i was e exact opposite of him... he was white i am tan, he like staying indoors i like going out.. he likes reading i like sports... and he asked me why i was there.. he feels i do not need to be there.. heh thanks for the compliment.. anyways after dinner we had to continue small talking.. I repeated the same old things 25 times.. can u imagine how tired i was.. and i hate making small talk..
From this i found out some statistics..
Men
- About 90% are engineers, Josh is an enginner too heh
- Most of them are in their 30s
- They are either too introverted or too conceited
- Most of them came alone as they dun want their friends to know.... hmmm josh u belong to e girls part
Women
- Most of them are either teachers or accountants (excluding me and ying)
- Most of them are in their late 20s
- They are more normal than the guys
- All came in at least in pairs or a group
We were each given a "dating card"..we had to write the name of all the persons we talked to according to their numbers. There was a column on interested or not interested and another one on polite or not polite. After talking each person we were suppose to indicate if we are interested to get to know that person better.. the organisers collected back the cards after everything and they would consolidate the results.
If i wanted to know a person better i would tick his interested beside his name and if he is also interested in me that would be a mutual match and the organisers would release our contact details to each other. If it is only 1 sided, it is called a strike and no information would be released... so.. me and ying only ticked Josh's name.. i tink the organisers must be thinking we set our standards too high that we were only intereted in 1 candidate.. heh... cos we already have someone already ma haha..
I have never felt so exhausted from talking so much.. but some of them are quite interesting to talk to.. but the process was damn tiring..
And so the reults...
Josh
No. of mutuals: 1 (Its dyann cos they made a pact to choose each other)
No. of strikes:5 (minus me and ying its 3)
Dyann
No. of mutuals: 3
No. of strikes: 7
Ying
No. of mutuals: 0
No. of strikes: 19
Me
No. of mutuals: 0
No. of strikes: 12
And the winner is.. Yinghui!! She is so popular la haha.... at least dyann did better than Josh la
After that we had to go pacify our poor bfs heh..
baby u beat all of them hands down k heh.. no competition at all heh
