I didn’t really have plans for today. It was a nice break. I felt like I worked hard yesterday.
Actually, I worked hard today too. I was up early and working on getting my listings fixed. Finally got everything fixed by around 1pm. Wrapped the gifts, and went to Masha and Brodie’s parties!
Masha and Brodie have the same birthday, same party date, on different beaches! And they both did/do website development and branding lol!
Masha’s Kits party was fun. I met some cool people! She has so many gorgeous girl friends….what’s up with these Russians!
The coolest part was meeting Stas and Lana – a couple who are doing well on Amazon! Me and Stas talked quite a bit about FBA. He knows a fair bit! I quite like this couple. Though, he has a friend who is selling silicone wedding rings, so I don’t know how much we can share. Then again, I have a friend who sells kitchen products.
A guy at the party, Alex, was into me. He wasn’t bad looking, but not super good looking. He was very touchy….no ambiguity here. I don’t know… kind of don’t want to waste time hanging out with someone who clearly wants to be more than friends. He is nice though. And it’s kinda cool that he spent 10 years living in Spain, and said his Spanish was better than his Russian.
Met a girl Natalia. Holy shit she had a nice body. Nicer than mine. She seemed interested in being friends though.
I hitched a ride with Stas and Lana, went to their place in Yaletown. They live in Yaletown! I love it here in this 2 bedroom condo in Burnaby, but I am more and more enticed to live in Yaletown. Masha lives in Yaletown too. Matthew lives in Yaletown too…but that’s not an upside. Wouldn’t want to run into him and his gf. But I hope to move there, and have a water view or a good view of some sort. Let the entrepreneurs gentrify Yaletown!
At their place, I met Viera, another gorgeous Russian. She was nice and funny. I liked her.
We all went down to English Bay, met more Russians, went to bathroom 3 times because Viera says there’s no bathrooms / huge lineups later on.
We settled somewhere at the front centre of the fireworks, among a sea of people. I decided to go look for Brodie. After all, I got his gift and his party started 9 hours prior.
I actually did find him and his group of friends! I mainly just talked to two of his friends…a cool older guy, Jeremy, and a girl…forgot her name…but she was pretty and most likely Brodie’s fuck buddy.
That was a bit odd to see. As we walked to Brodie’s car after the fireworks, she hooked her arm onto his. He did nothing to reciprocate other than letting her. Well, that’s familiar… just like Patrick.
In the car, she rubbed his back a bit….and again he did nothing. And he was rather indifferent to her. Or maybe he was just his boring self.
If even Brodie can be so cruel, then, let it be known: Never hang out with a fuck buddy in public, especially with friends. It’s like a constant slap in the face.
She wasn’t un-nice to me, but I wondered if I was a threat. I was talking a lot, on the beach and in the car, and Brodie laughed at everything I said.
I had a great time today! It seems like people liked my jokes, liked me. The Russians were all curious about my hair, and me having a Russian name, haha.
Ah, I miss socializing and making new friends. Gotta do more of it!
