A funny thing happened last Thursday night when I was working.
My cousin-in-law came to bing! with his friends, and the first name that popped into my head was Francis. Apparently he didn't recognize me as he didn't show any signs of recognizing me. He ordered, like, 5 Iced Cappuccinos. =p
So, being my usual social self, I decided to start talking to him (of course, the fact that he's good looking also added to the appeal of talking to him, something I wouldn't do otherwise...)

So this is how it went:
me: You're Francis rite?
him: O_o
me: or Frank? (embarrassment seeps in...)
him: O_o"
me: You're Vivian's husband right?
him: (recognition dawns) Yes yes =)
me: I'm her cousin *big smile*
him: oh........................(la di da)

him: Oh, you're talking about Francis Lau is it? That's Ivy's husband. =D
me: -_-" *paiseh*
Needless to say, his name is NOT Francis. After much thought and consideration, I finally realised that Francis is the name of my OTHER cousin-in-law. My degree of 'paiseh-ness' increased tenfold. Rest assured, I shall not forget his name in the near future.
Btw, his name is Wei Han. No wonder I can't remember his name. Who in their right mind would remember someone's Chinese name after only meeting them almost 9 months ago??? But that's just my ego talking... =p
Funny how sometimes my 'social self' makes me look like a complete idiot...
