Between Friends

I came across this comic strip today. Have you ever done this? I know I have

Hi Yin, I subscribed to your RSS feeds tapi ntah la what I did wrong, it was never updated. And here I was, wondering apa hal la Yin ni lama nor tak update blog! Sheesshh!

Yes, I've lost count how many times I've done this. Thing is, I don't remember faces quite well but if that person comes up to me (which is a confirmation that we know each other), I could almost always recall that person's name!

I truly am terrible with recognising faces. I had a tough time when I was in US dulu-dulu cause unless I meet the usual people at the usual place (like classmates in class, bosses and co-workers at work, jerry the handyman doing some repair work at the apartment etc.), I won't recognise them outside. Cause they all look the same to me!

So my best escape is to pretend not to see that person. Teruk, I know but I don't want to make eye contact and not acknowledge and then get labelled "sombong". The number of times I've been labeled that! Ouch!

He he he...apa la you ni Nin. I pulak ingat muka but kekadang tak ingat nama. So, selalunya kalu terserempak with a familiar face, I'll tegur then malu sat coz nama lupa. I do have to say tho that most of our classmates I tak ingat muka or name especially the guys except for a few yang I memang kenal la.
