Since everyone needs to know everything in my life.
For some reason I have a thing for girls that can and
will sing for me. And when I heard Nikki's MP3 I was
totally impressed and interested. Her songs are deep
and rich in feeling. She responded to one of my personal
ads
Before I went out on another blind date, I was thinking
that maybe my dating style was a bit old-school. Maybe
I should kiss on a first date and maybe I should hold
hands without bothering to think about it and hesitating.
But I also wanted to be myself. I didn't want to put
up a front and totally fake her up. So this blind date
I was gonna do something completely different while
still being able to keep my persona.
So I picked Nikki at around 12:00 noon and of course
I got lost again. And I had like 3 different directions.
I saw her and I was really impressed. She was very cute
and attractive to me, though she doesn't believe it.
I just went on a feeling. Lucky me it turned out good
:-)
We
went out to lunch first in Ontario Mills at the Cucina
Cucina restaurant. I've never been there before and
I was really interested in how it was like. On the table
was some crayons and a piece of white paper that covered
the table. Nikki drew a little collage for me that I
thought was cute so I had to take a picture of it. She
drew me and my whacked hair and some other stuff that
I thought was cute. We talked and conversed for about
an hour. The food was ok... it kinda reminded me of
like an Italian Denny's.
We then went to the actual Ontario Mills to go around
and walk and talk and, of course, go shopping. But in
the parking lot rather than scheme on sleek ways to
try to hold her hand, I just took it. We spent about
2 hours there and ended up at GameWorks. We played a
couple of games like Air Hockey and... urrrgghh... Dance
Dance Revolution. She was totally kicking my ass. I
had like 20,000 points and she had like 8 million points.
I lost in Air Hockey but only in a fluke, so I expect
a rematch sometime in the future. This is where our
first kiss happened. I kissed a girl in the first couple
hours of knowing her and that is so totally not me.
But at the same time I'm glad it wasn't me. I wasn't
so uptight and conservative about it.
After
walking around the mall we went to the nearby theater
and watched some movies. We watched Scary Movie 2 but
only the first hour and a half before we went and watched
Kiss of the Dragon. Kiss of the Dragon has some kick-ass
fight scenes so I suggest you all go see it. Afterwards
it was around 7:00 so we went out to dinner at New York
New York which has now become one of my new favorite
eating places. There was a guy playing the piano that
played some cool tunes, too bad he didn't know any Pachabel
or Tocata in Fugue. The New York steak is one of the
best I've ever tasted. Very romantic place too. Has
candle-lights and everything.
Then afterwards we had to go to my most favorite
hangout in high school... CastlePark. I love it there
and used to go there with my friends like every week.
That was the best time I've had mini-golfing in a long
time. We had the most romantic and fun night ever there,
well at least I believed so. Of course the winner was
me by one stroke. Afterwards we just walked around and
then I took her home. The only awkward moment was when
her grandma opened the door as I was... ahem... saying
good-bye.
I had a lot of fun that night and it was everything
that I'd had been needing for a long time. I definitely
had to make a second date with her the next day. Of
course she didn't get to sing to me the first date but
she more than made up for it when SWV's Weak song came
on. :-)
