oh ye of little ingenuity

There are moments in life where one cant help but just throw it out there and see what happens. I rarely come across opportunities to do that but today I did. Today i decided to try a sad pick up line and see where it gets me.

Situation: Me getting coffee at the RMIT cafeteria before my literary journalism (LJ) class. Notice a pretty girl (PG) standing beside me. Both of us waiting for our coffee. I smile at her and she smiles back. So I do this...

Me: So do you come here often?

PG: Uh...yea i guess so. In between classes? (yes she had a questioning tone)

Me: wokays. (5 sec pause) Sorry but I just had to try that out and see how it worked out

PG: oh alright.. (takes coffee n leaves)

Now i admit that it was a overused and very bad pick up line but i swear i feel that conversation should have lasted longer. That was a classic opening into a 1st time conversation if she just had better comebacks. Or maybe I've been watching to many reruns of Friends??

*Ponders

Then again it wasn't like she was all that. She had nice boots (yes i notice stuff like dat) and the appropriate length of wavy hair (appropriate by my standards off course). A nice smile maybe but besides that not someone I'd loose sleep over.

*yea i'll just keep telling myself dat

anyways im still gonna keep trying these lame bad pick up lines n you'll be among the 1st to know if it works..

later days..

PS: Yes i have a GF and I'd like to stress that my experiments are purely innocent fun
