There are some things in life, regardless of how many times it happen, would trigger a particular reaction from you.
No, I'm not talking about sex.
I'm talking about how strangely amused and surprised you can feel when you get to see your friend on television experiencing that few minutes of fame. There I was, minding my own business watching tv when I happened to spot a familiar figure on tv (whose name I shall not mention here because I wouldn't want to cause a rukus over such a small matter now, would I?).
It took a few minutes for the scene to sink into my head. Here's how it goes:
- Eyes spot familiar face on tv.
- Brain tries desperately to make a connection.
- Brain kicks me.
"Oh, that's my friend!" I exclaimed in the living room to my family members. Someone that I know was on TV. How often do you get that?
Boy am I proud of myself.
