Even though it pains me to say it, I've always been one of those dorky nerdy Asian guys. For the most part I am fine with it, but sometimes I wish I wasn't so shy. Like when it comes to the opposite sex.
My buddy Jay was turning 17 and a lot of his friends, including me, decided to throw him a birthday party and to get him a table at a Karaoke. It's located in a shopping center right next to a Big Lots store and a dentist's office. Somehow they'll manage to get big names to show up every now and then (Jay-Z and P. Diddy come to mind), but for the most part, it's mostly Asian kids and wannabe thugs of all races.
At any rate, we pre-party at my friend's house and were really tore up before we even got to the karaoke. Someone thought it was a good idea to do a lot of Patron shots... I think we all know that tequila = trouble. I must have had at least 4 shots before I left the house, which is A LOT considering I don't drink to often.
When we get to the karaoke it's packed out. Serious. I've never seen so many Asian people in one place before in my life, and I lived in Beijing! When we get inside more drinks were had and at I eventually lost count of how many shots of tequila I had done that night. In retrospect I am really surprised I did not puke all over the place.
Some time in the night I notice this really hot girl eyeballing me. This stood out because girls rarely ever pay attention to me and this one was drop dead gorgeous.
Serious.
She had on a tight black skirt that showed way more leg than was humanly possible on her petite frame and one of those white dress shirts that's partially open so you can see barely see her black bra from peaking underneath. She had one of those "scene" girl haircuts that the emo kids do; you know what I'm talking about. The haircut that looks like it's backwards. One thing that turned me off was she was smoking cigarettes, but hey, beggars can't be choosers.
At first I was really nervous and didn't know what to do say I turn to Jay and say, "I think that girl likes me."
"Go talk to her," he says.
Yeah right, like it's that easy. Still, I haven't been in a relationship for like years and at that point I had nothing to lose. I down a couple of more shots, liquid courage, and make my way over to her.
"I like your hair," was the first thing that came out of my mouth. I couldn't think of anything else to say, but it seemed to work, because she said "thanks." I offered to buy her a drink. "Gin and tonic," she replied. After that the conversation just kind of flowed and we talked like we were best friends forever, which is really weird because I am such a klutz at these things. Amanda was her name. She had just moved to Canada from San Francisco and didn't have too many friends. She said she noticed me because of my smile.
I have to admit. I kind of blushed when she said that.
Well we ended up talking most of the night and doing a couple more shots. The karaoke was closing down and my friend Jay was so drunk that the rest of my buddies were carrying him out. I turned to Amanda and told her that I had to leave when she said, "Do you want to go back to my place to hang out?"
My jaw about hit the floor. I have never had this happen to me before and had dreamed about it multiple times, but when the situation arised, I kind of froze. Luckily I snapped out of it quickly and said sure.
We take a cab back to her place, which is one of these ultra-swank condos in Buckhead. At this point, I thought she was those rich girls but who knows but anyawys, It looked like something you would see out of a Pottery Barn catalog or maybe an NBC sitcom. She offered to pour me a drink, which at this point I couldn't turn down. We both snuggled up on the couch and she turned on the tv and we watched some random shows for a while and then she turns to me and leans in for a kiss.
WOW.
Not only did she make the first move, but it was absolutely AMAZING. I had butterflies in my stomach. We continue to kiss and things start getting hot and heavy when she unbuckles my belt and says Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I liked to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air
In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys
Who were up to no good
Startin making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.
First class, yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
Is this what the people of Bel-Air Living like?
Hmmmmm this might be alright.
But wait I hear there're prissy, wine all that
Is Bel-Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
I don't think sow
I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air
Well, the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get arrested
I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightening, disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I can say this cab is rare
But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air
