MY FIRST ATTEMPT

My first blog post and I feel so (what the word again it’s totally evaded me)

I had spotted him at a conference sometime back and he was the most gorgeous thing (for lack of a better word) I had ever seen. I was not sure what to do but it seemed that I could not stand there and just admire from afar God’s creation that was making my heart beat so fast. I stood thinking and plotting of the best way to approach him. I am not the type to sit, stare and plot on the next move or just come to the conclusion that I will wait for him or for any matter any guy make the first move.

What if he does not, maybe he is the one? I analyze all the angles because if I don’t then I will never know. On this particular day, I guess my balls had shrunk and I was feeling way out of my league with this one. “Here goes” I was whispering to myself. Every time I took a step forward I took ten backwards and he kept receding from my sight.

I sipped a glass of wine and the warming sensation almost made me run towards him and blubber like a fool. I had to stop myself because I knew I was about to make the biggest mistake of my life. Walking slowly towards him, I knew I was not turning back when I was a meter away from him. He had gorgeous eyes, I could see through them like glass. His lips, I cannot even describe... I mean I was in total awe of this man.

I was stuttering like a fool as I said my casual hi. It was like my words were stuck in my throat and I thought “this cannot be happening”. He did not seem embarrassed by this so I ignored it and moved on. He was Alvin (the sound of the L rolling around your tongue-moving on swiftly). My colleagues were staring and I knew that if I had not dared this stunt then this man would be the talk with my friends. I am not afraid to express how I feel and I did not care if Alvin was going to reject me or not, because there he was and he was absolutely gorgeous, so what was stopping me from hitting a decent conversation with him? Nothing except myself. We are constantly in touch however what I hoped for would transpire with him never did. I can’t be blamed for trying rather than have him as a topic of discussion and wishful thinking. I finally did meet someone along the line eventually. Alvin is still single as I found him and I wonder what makes such a gorgeous man single and unattached?
