As I have been traveling a lot lately, 'boy news' has been kept to a minimum... but there are some funny highlights, of course!
I eventually was able to reply to Vivek's email. It was about ten days after he sent me his pictures that I wrote a generic non-picture-referencing email back to him. It was only a few lines long (I was swamped and replying to about 50 overdue emails...plus, I had lost interest in him). In turn, he replied with a full length email, even attaching his latest clips of music that he had created (and asking for my opinion)! I have yet to craft a response back because I don't want to lie and say I loved the music (it was a background beat with a few notes overtop that repeated themselves every couple of bars). I have never met this guy and yet have been asked (by him) to give an opinion on something he's spent a few days putting together? I could write another email avoiding it all?? Or I could let it go for another few days and hope that my delay in responding is a hint? Or I could just fully admit that I wasn't a big fan and maybe soften it with 'it's not really my genre of music'? Awkward situations that shouldn't even exist considering I've never actually met Vivek.......
On another note, Indian/South Asian speed dating has become a growing craze in the last while. I've noticed that shaadi.com has been organizing a few and now another one has popped up (two mangoes)! So, I signed up for my first South Asian speed dating with Two Mangoes... I have never speed dated in my life and am going for the experience (and likely a good laugh).
As I woke up this morning, I had an invite from a shaadi.com speed dating event that is happening on Wednesday (in two days)... well...nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?
