my most awesomest sunday in a while

today was laundry day. dreaded laundry day. it's a long trip to the laundromat and im not looking forward to running around looking for empty washers and dryers. when i got there, it wasnt as packed as i imagined it to be. thank goodness. looked around. no cute guys. oh well. and then i had to reload my card to use in the machines. asked the guy behind the counter and there, i saw my gael garcia bernal look-a-like. *teehee*

so there starts my awesome day. i gave him a sly smile and asked (like i didnt know) how to reload the card. so he shows me and gives me a smile back. i know that may face turned red, i feel the blood rushing through my cheeks. damn it. he might have noticed and i talk like a bumbling idiot whenever im around a guy i like so thats a dead giveaway. i shut myself up and i just said thank you. i loaded up my machine and because i had nothing to do, i looked around and just watched other people load up their machines and fold their clothes. sigh. and then i hear someone behind me ask "is everything alright? do you need help?" and to my surprise it was my gael garcia bernal. *sigh* i gave him that stupid smile and said, "im ok thanks" and looked away. i didnt want him to see that i was kilig!

ate liza gave me another chance to talk to him. she told me to ask him if there were other carts available. i already know that he would say no but i took the chance and sungab na! i went to him and asked him if there were more carts. he said sorry they're all out but he said, i can help you carry stuff if you want (insert smile here). i grinned from ear to ear and told him sure, maybe later when we're done. i walked a way with a stupid smile on my face. im sure he knows by now that ive been following him. haha.

after that he kept asking me if im fine and if im finding everything ok. and i would just stare at him and nod. stupid me. say something ira! say something!

when i was done washing, i started to look for a free dryer. darn. someone keeps getting the ones i see. then here comes my savior again. my gael garcia bernal. he told me that he was done doing his laundry and if i wanted to use his. awww how sweet. i said sure and there i was using his dryer, smiling and making small talk and then i froze. demmit ira you always do this!

to avoid further humiliation, i avoided him the whole afternoon. i walked by him without looking at him, pretended to do something when he's near. pucha ira chance mo na yun!

next time we do laundry there, im definitely asking for his number. haha. not really, i just hope i get to do more than just show him my stupid smile or my flushed face.

sigh.

I can feel the kilig all the way here, Ira! I'm happy for you that you were able to take the first steps at getting to know him. Now's the time to regroup and think of your next plan of action.

You do know his name, right? If you don't, introduce yourself na. Then ask him stuff about himself. (i.e. what he does, where he works) But don't get too personal at isipin niyang stalker ka or something hehehehehe

Kaya mo yan!

*hug tapos tulak papunta sa guy

problem is, i dont go there very often. we only go there when we need big washing machines for our comforters and stuff. the last time i saw him was when we washed our comforters fall last year.

and i do not know his name. and the next time i go there, il definitely introduce myself and ask for his name. more small talk and less blushing. haha

although i think he's still young. but i dont care! i see a future with him.. a future full of pretty mestiso latino/a kids. hahaha


thanks collyn and nel. susungab na talaga ako next time! hahaha
