"I have learned, that if one advances confidently in the directionof his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined,he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." - Henry David Thoreau

A BLIND DATE
Some time ago some friends arranged for a blind date. The meeting place was to be at Sogo.My heart beat a little faster as I polished my shoes, ironed my best shirt to perfection with no trace of any crease and put on my best tie.I spent at least 20 minutes setting my hair with the new gel. When I arrived, to my dismay, I noticed this plump Auntie with heavy make-up with a red ribbon on her head and a thick pink belt with a huge butterfly as a buckle- straight from the 1960's, I perceive.She was also wearing red high heel shoes. As she came down from the stairs, I wanted to slip away but it was too late,she had spotted me. I held my breath as she asked," Are You Vijay?" I answered her instinctively and immediately-" Sorry Mr. Vijay could not make it today. My name is Rajah!"
