Circle circled !

It is quite interesting to see how your life can change in a short time. Ok, not everything changed but I guess my circle of friends and aquaintances is growing incredibly. Ok, some of my "friends" are fading away but new ones come in, and I like this idea.

Last weekend was again one of these weekends where I was supposed to stay home and rest but instead ended up at 5 am on a bar, having a great time. The only bad aspect of this is that I start to be very very very tired but cannot rest anymore as my body does know how to do it ...
Friday, after guitar, Hung and I went to Vascos for a drink. I walked in and had to say hi to at least 10 persons. Among them was Marc, an Aussie guy I used to work with before. I had not seen him for 6 months and once Hung left Vascos to meet some of his friends, I sat with Marc to catch up. He introduced me to his friends, and more friends, and more friends... They ordered champagne and we had a blast ! We drank a lot of champagne and all of us were pretty relaxed and happy. Among Marc's friends, there was this Lady, Alicia, who used to be concierge in one of the most deluxe hotels in NY. As I have been working in a palace in Paris, we started discussing about luxury, demanding customers and excellence in service. Very very very interesting as I barely have the opportunity to discuss these subjects here. There was also this guy I used to see in Yoko and that I found cute. He was always with an older american lady. He was among the people I met on Friday. He is nepalese and is leaving Vietnam today, after 6 months spent here. He was very friendly and I enjoyed discussing with him. It is interesting that people are supposed to be met at a certain time, and not before ! We never discussed in Yoko even though I would have loved to. But I met him before he left !
In the crowd, there was this guy from Boston who ended up having my number after a lot of champagne. I did not really noticed him and went on with the rest of the group for the evening. I went home around 5, a bit high and very happy.
The next day, while enjoying a lunch with Laurent, Idoia and Mimo, I received a message from Brad, the Boston guy. I was quite surprised but replied to his message. We kept texting each other and finally set up an appointment for the same night. We met in a Japanese-style bar with fish tanks, turtle and aligator. I had a wonderful time and we chat for 3 hours none stop. He is a talker and spent his time telling me about him (hum). But it did not matter as I felt relaxed and glad to be there. He is 36, tall and quite muscular. Kind of cute ;-)
After the bar, we went back to Vascos where we run into Marc again. They played pool for a while. After that we went to Lush until it closed and I was home by 2 (quite resonable for an evening that was supposed to be a DVD night...). I don't know if I will see him again but would not be against some fun with him. I got the feeling that it is what he wants as well .
Sunday night, dinner at Mimo and Laurent's place. Very nice ! After that, I went to Yoko to have my weekly music dose. The ambiance was explosive and I had a lot of fun. People started dancing !!!! Incredible !

And now, I am back to work, ready for another crazy week.

Carpe Diem :-)
