title: unmistaken identity.
on my way to the apartment, i saw this really familiar guy. i looked at him while i was walking and he stared at me too. we were 65% unsure whether or not we both know each other. finally, i waved my hand, hoping that he'd recognize me and wave back. well, he did nod his head back at me. great! then i approached him. i still wasn't convinced that he's the guy i know though. haha. here's the awkward conversation:
me: "uy! papasok ka na?" guy: "hindi. pauwi na ako." me: "kamusta ka na? nag-iba itsura mo!" [wahaha.] guy: "ikaw nga dyan eh." me: "ang payat mo!"
it seems like we completely don't know each other and we're just making conversation so as not to embarrass the other, right? i know. i thought so, too. in my head i was like, "what the f am i doing?! is this really the same guy i went to high school with?" so, to make sure, i asked.
me: "wait lang.... mark joseph, di ba?" guy: "oo!" [whew!] me: "grabe, nag-iba talaga itsura mo. ahahahahahahaha"
tumawa na lang ako eh. haha. grabe talaga! he looked really different. the last time i saw him was last december during the Paskuhan. he was with haydee and heidi (wehehe). we talked for like a minute or two then i took off with my friends to watch Parokya ni Edgar. i didn't notice whether or not he gained or lost weight then. good thing, he still remembered me 'cause if not, i may have looked like a moron waving my hand at a complete stranger and, worse, talking to one.
