One thing which all you guys have to be careful of i.e. if you are straight is to be beware of gays. In germany one encounters gays as often as you do the straight guys. I narrate some of my unforced encounters with gays.
- This was when I was travelling from Stuttgart to Hamburg on an ICE (Inter City Express). The journey lasts for 5 hours and covers nearly 800 Kms at a mx. speed of 250 km/hr. It was during this journey that I felt sick to my stomach. I realised after a few minutes why. I hadn’t taken a breakfast. Apparently all the ICE’s have a restraunt. Prices are not very cheap but its affordable. After I went to this restraunt on this particular ICE, I was a little confused as to what should I order. This guy at the counter gave me the menu card and I promptly ordered some sausages. His next question took me totally by surprise. ’’So how old are you, 16, 17 18...???’’.
Me: No am 23.
Him: Well you look very young.
Me: not my fault.
I was starting to smell something fishy.
Him: You have beautiful eyes.
What the #$%@..
Ok so he gives me the sausages. I go to the farthest table I can see in this on-board restraunt. He comes to me with a chocolate.
Him: Gift for a nice man.(Gives me the chocolate)
{Completely bowled out}Me: Oh th..th..th..th..thanks. How much do I have to pay for this?
Him: Nothing, its a gift. So where are you going??
Me: To Hamburg
Him: Where will you stay in Hamburg?
What?? Why does he want to know.
Me: Oh. I have this terrible pain in the stomach you know. Guess I should go to the toilet.
Man.. I ran away at a speed faster than the speed of light.
- In Hamburg during my summer school there is this guy sitting next to me on one of the parties for our class mate. Since I am not talking to anyone, so I though why not get familiar to this person sitting next to me.
Me: Well I am Vyom. I come from India. I guess I have seen you in the class though I should confess I don’t know you.
This guy is well built n all.
Him: I am Jens. A german.
Me: Cool so what made you choose this school and what are your plans after that...
Him: I stay in hamburg so I thought it would be good pasttime.I wanna go to australia after this...
Looks deep into my eyes for a long time. I almost thought he lost his tounge or forze or some crap like that...
Him: Its a dream for me.
I almost had a feeling that he would confess he is a gay. Somthing I had by now preety well realised. Huh
- I had for a long time heard that french girls are preety pissed off all the time. Reason: Most french guys are gays. Atleast more than you had find in other countries.
On the first day of our course we were supposed to introduce ourselves. This guy walked up to the board. I was not even sure if this was a guy or a girl. Finally it turns out he was neither. He was a gay.
Him: Ok so my name is Mael Eves Gennou. Normally people try to call me Mael but they can’t pronounce it. I guess you guys give a try too.
Us: Mael
Him: Ok you guys can’t pronouce it. So cal me Eves, or maybe just eve.
Dammit. Apparently it turns out that this guy is a preety helpful to everyone. Guess why? So I have made it a point that no matter when I want to meet this guy I always talk of some arbitrary girl. Like how beautiful she is and stuff like that. I guess thats my only resort.
Cheers,
Vyom.
