Yes my darling, what is it?

Do you have to play Sims straight away today? Now that you just got home from work?

No… I don’t have to play straight away… I’m also trying to cook some chicken and noodles whilst I’m typing this to you… What’s up?

I miss you… I want to talk to you… I don’t want you to just play Sims for 4 hours or whatever straight after work… I want to “read” your thoughts…

Okay… well… to be honest I’m not totally in the mood for Sims right now either. Maybe I’ll be in the mood tomorrow — after class — I’ll probably want to zone out and play Sims then — and listen to Grimes.

Sounds like a good idea… I can give you some space then…

(Chuckles) What do you want to talk about today?

(Shrugs shoulders) I just want to know how your day was… any other thoughts or updates?

Well… you know… I was at work today and I am still having these visions…

What visions? And what department at work are you in when you get these visions?

It seems to be… kids department…? Maybe I’m getting clucky.

(Chuckles) Always the kids department?

No, not always… but today… I was at the till point, serving customers… and I just had these visions of you coming up to buy something… maybe your alibi is that it’s for a niece or nephew… I feel like I’ve even written about this before?

(Puzzled) I don’t think so?

Oh — was it a draft I never published?

(Shrugs shoulders) Sounds like it…? Or if you did write it — it’s been a while ago, even I don’t remember it. So just write about it… again… what is this Kids Department vision 2.0?

Hmmm… well… I think you have black hair…

Oh? Black hair…

Yeah. Black hair and glasses. Just like a normal Asian guy.

(LOL) Okay? What clothes am I wearing?

Umm… NOT a basketball jersey…

(LOL)

Maybe like… either a white or yellow Lacoste polo shirt… with a khaki pair of Ralph Lauren… chinos? Is that what they’re called? Chinos?

Chinos?! Isn’t it still a bit hot in Australia?

Wait — when are you appearing?!?!?!

I don’t know — but isn’t it still hot even through July, August, September? I mean — I’ll be hot. I have hot legs. I don’t see myself wearing chinos…

Chino SHORTS?

Oh… okay, chino shorts… Ralph Lauren… dark or light khaki?

(Chuckles) I really don’t CARE… The vision is not that specific — you pick whatever khaki you want. It doesn’t even have to be khaki, it could be… grey? Navy? Dark green? I don’t know.

Oh so you’re just listing plain colours…

Pretty much — like it’s a very basic Asian guy look.

Why Lacoste polo? Why not Ralph Lauren polo?

Again — any variation of this — Tommy Hilfiger polo, or any other brand — any polo — but Lacoste also feels like a very basic Asian dude brand — along with actual Polo, Tommy Hilfiger… yeah… Calvin Klein? Do they do men’s polos?

Yeah….? Pretty much all the men’s brands…?

Yeah. See?! It’s SO BASIC — I can’t even think of the exact brand in my vision. I just mean, basic polo = basic Asian man.

Okay… I don’t think it’s only Asians?

You’re right. It’s just men in general. Very basic. POLOS. Okay. That’s what I meant.

Polos and chinos… basic looking man…

(LOLOLOL) Yeah — right?! So you’re not really Mr Incognito… cos Mr Incognito tries to hide himself even more than that… but you’re just… “basic Asian dude” — appearing in front of me… does that make sense?

I… guess so…? But when is this happening?

That’s the thing — I also kept thinking about it whilst driving home from work. It doesn’t make sense for this happen on our FIRST re-meeting… it just doesn’t make any sense at all. I don’t think it’s happening like that.

Okay — so when is it actually happening?

I think it’s… after we’ve established a first re-meeting — and then, you’re gonna be like,

“I could only be in Australia for this weekend. Actually I only had time to see you for this one night. I have to catch my flight tomorrow morning. The NEXT TIME that I’m back — I won’t tell you when I’m coming. I’ll just appear at your work. And then, we’ll go have dinner somewhere… whatever day that is. Maybe you’ll have a morning shift, maybe you’ll have a late shift… I’ll surprise you. Is that alright?”

And then I’ll have to WAIT — for like, at least a MONTH or something?! You’re gonna be SO BUSY… but then… you’ll just appear that second time?!?!!?

Oh? And I haven’t given you a Barbie phone yet or any phone, I haven’t even grabbed your Skype details or anything like that? Are we TEXTING in the meantime?

(Shaking head) No… I don’t think we’re doing any of that…

Oh? Why not?

Because the FIRST re-meeting was way too brief… it’s a shock to the system — this is the nature of the lifestyle you’re actually living…

Mmmm… okay… what’s the full timeline again?

Okay… the actual first re-meeting is at a mutual friend’s house.

How do I know which mutual friend?

The mutual friend is on my Skype.

(Sigh) This is so… cryptic…

(Chuckles) Remember? There were only 3 friends on my Skype. You can verify with each one of them, “Who has Nicole on their Skype? Who can see her?” — It should only be 3 friends. 2 of which, aren’t currently living in Australia. Thereby, via process of elimination, it is at that 3rd friend’s house that we will have our first re-meeting. And there’ll be a small group of friends.

Okay — I get it — millennial hang outs.

Yes! It will be simple, casual millennial hang outs…

What am I wearing?

Oh… umm… I don’t know…

(Head tiling) Please… just tell me…

(Chuckles) Let me think about this…

…

…

…

I think… you either have blonde hair or red hair?

Blonde or RED?!?!?!

Yes — because I just shuffled some cards in Oracle of the Mermaids and the cards showed pictures of mermaids with blonde and red hair — so it’s either of those two colours. It’s up to you.

(LOLOLOLOL)… Basing my styling decisions on oracle cards…

Yes… MERMAID oracle cards!

(Chuckles)

And? For clothes?

Hmmm…

…

…

…

Maybe like a… Bart Simpson T-shirt with some denim shorts?!

WHAT?!?!?!?!

(LOL) Okay it doesn’t have to be Bart Simpson specifically — just any printed Tee… like, it’s just CASUAL — we’re not going anywhere, it’s just a mutual friend’s house. It’s super, super casual… Even I’m not dressing up to hang out there…

Right… super casual…

Yeah?! (Shrugs shoulders)… whatever you wear to a friend’s house, just really casual hanging out…

(Nodding)… I think I get it…

Right? And I don’t know why you’d have blonde or red hair… (shrugs shoulders)…

Maybe it’s a wig…

HAHAHAHAHAHA… Okay?!?!!? But why?! It’s just a small group of mutual friends…

Hmmm… some of the friends have new boyfriends and girlfriends though and I’ve never met them…

Oh. Okay yeah, that’s true…

Wig it is…

Okay?!?!! (Chuckles)…

And… why is it so brief?

It’s brief because — you’re not even going to kiss me.

I’M NOT?!?!?!!?!

No!!! There’s mutual friends around. We’re not even going to go home together. It’s JUST a friends’ catch-up. Just friends. All millennials. All friends. Hanging out. That’s IT — it’s not an actual DATE. You’re just MEETING ME AGAIN…

Oh…. I see…………….. Do I have another name? Another profession?

Hmmm… I don’t think so?

Why not?

Why would you… need to…?

Maybe… because of the mutual friends’ new partners that I’ve never met?

Hmmm… if that was the case, though… I’d only be able to give you a friendly hug. Platonic hug — like “Oh I just met you, nice to meet you, bye, have fun wherever you’re going tomorrow morning on a plane~~~” Like — literally, just a platonic new friend?!!?!

(Nodding)… but… I’ll let you know… “When I’m back, I’ll surprise you at your work place.”

(Smiles) Okay…? But — but — what if SOMEONE ELSE DOES THIS TOO?!

(Staring) ARE YOU REALLY FLIRTING WITH OTHER GUYS AT THESE MILLENNIAL HANG OUTS?!?!!

(LOL) No…. but like… I need something else — I need to know that it’s DEFINITELY YOU — when we first re-meet again…

Hmm… I won’t lie that I’m Korean. Does that help?

(Nodding) I guess so… I mean… the odds aren’t high but never impossible… that there are other Korean mutual friends of friends…?

(Laughing) — YOU BETTER NOT!!!

(LOL) — Maybe they won’t be your height? I don’t know?!

They’re not gonna be my height — I’ll make sure with the mutual friend — DON’T LET ANY OTHER NEW KOREAN GUY FRIENDS WHO ARE MY HEIGHT INTO THIS INNER CIRCLE WHEN IT’S THE MILLENNIAL HANG OUTS WITH NICOLE!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH…………..

…

Do I have an accent?

Ummm…. I think you sound like your characters…

Oh? Literally?

Yeah, and I might even be cheeky and be like, “Did anyone ever tell you that you sound EXACTLY like Common Name? You know that famous Korean dude?”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA…

Right?!?!!?

(Shrugs shoulders) I’m gonna think about it… I’m not promising that I’ll sound like that just yet…

Okay?

What’s my profession? What do I do?

I don’t know, babe… for a millennial friends’ gathering? For a millennial dude that needs to fly in and fly out… all the time…? I don’t know… I’m gonna ask google…

Hmmm… maybe you’re a Hotel Manager?

Oooohhh… interesting…

Yeah — Google AI:

Depending on their role and the size of the hotel chain, hotel managers can often need to fly a lot, especially if they are managing multiple properties across different locations or are involved in regional or corporate level operations, which can require frequent travel to different cities or countries for meetings, training, and site inspections. 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA…

It’s funny to you?!?!?!

(Giggles)… Yes!!! I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT…

But it can’t be too — unbelievable — you know what I mean?

What do you mean?

Like it can’t be SO ridiculous that the mutual friends’ new boyfriends or girlfriends are like, “Is this dude for real?! And then actually go to whatever hotel’s website to look you up, or on LinkedIn to see if there’s a profile linking you to that hotel???”

(Puzzled expression) Do you really think they’re going to do that…?

Okay maybe not but like — it can’t be like, “Oh yeah I can get you guys a friends’ discount” — It has to be more like Severance, “I can’t really talk too much about my work” — does that make sense?

Ahh — I see… okay… Hmm….

I feel like you’ve experienced more hotels than any of us would have so you can just make up whatever hotel that you can draw some real life experiences from… (LOL)

Oh… I see… HAHAHAHAHAHA…..

And… try not to sing, or whistle, or humm…

Oh?

Well — it’s TOO OBVIOUS — if you’re already TALKING like Common Name… I think if you have ANYTHING TO DO WITH MUSIC — it’s too fuckin’ obvious…

Oh… I see…

Like we just don’t know if the mutual friends’ new boyfriends or girlfriends will have friends or family who are already fans. We actually don’t know these kinds of details.

Right… yeah… we don’t know…

I don’t think you should even be in a group photo — not that millennials can be that bothered these days… but even on a story or something like that? Just do something else, like turn your head around or act like there’s a mosquito and you’re trying to swat it away so you don’t look at the camera?

(LOL) You seem REALLY EXPERIENCED — oddly enough — way too in tune with what I have to do in these scenarios?!!?!?!!?

(Chuckles)… umm… those are stories for another day…

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA….

…

Anything else?

Well — bring something, I guess?

Bring something?

Yes — well — fine, the friend is Taiwanese. It’s polite to go to a Taiwanese friend’s house — even if a casual hang out — with something in hand. A packet of cookies, a bottle of wine, anything. Just don’t show up empty-handed. It’s RUDE.

Oh… okay…

But nothing TOO BOOGIE — you’re a dude in a Simpsons T-shirt and denim shorts!!! IT’S NOT BOOGIE!!! It’ll freak everyone out!!! “This Dude is like — super rich!?!?!?!” — DON’T DO THAT.

(Chuckles)… can I bring you some cookies from Korea?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA… Sure… something like that would be nice….

Just not “boogie” Korean cookies…

(LOL) We wouldn’t even able to tell the difference, honestly… I can’t remember the last time I ever took notice of any Korean cookies?!!?!

(Giggling to himself)… Okay… I think I know what I’m gonna bring…

Also — one of the mutual friends’ friends — okay, she’s my friend but she’s not a mutual friend — her husband works in the construction industry in Australia — so I think it would make more sense that he somehow has a connection who’s a hotel manager?

Oh… via construction…

Yeah… something like that — it doesn’t have to be too elaborate of a narrative…

So we trust the husbands — we don’t yet trust the boyfriends…

YES — my dear — boyfriends could be temporary. We don’t really know them… they’re not even engaged!

Oh… I see…

But we will still get along and hang out and chat like normal millennials just hanging out and chatting.

(Nodding) Okay… (shrugs shoulders) I don’t even really care, I’m just looking forward to hanging out with YOU…

(Slight giggles)… anyway — I wouldn’t be surprised if… it’s then like, a month or even two months before your re-re-appearance… (LOL)

Ohhh… so my second appearance of 2025… the first one was with the group of friends, blonde or red hair, Bart Simpson T-shirt and denim shorts… maybe… — Why would a hotel manager wear a Bart Simpson Tee and denim shorts?!

Umm… (weird expression)… why wouldn’t he?!?!?! Okay — did I just basically describe my own BROTHER and his friends and the way THEY dress?!!? As middle-aged millennial men in upper-middle-management corporate?!?!?! (Nodding) Yes…?!?!?! (LOL)

OHHHHH… I see… so that’s how it is…!

Well — that’s been MY experience of middle-aged millennial men — when it’s REALLY CASUAL — it’s not even a dinner party. It’s NOT “boogie” — it’s like a hang out, a BBQ — you know?! It’s sooo casual…

Oh… I see…

People just rock up in THONGS —

Thongs?!?!?!?!?!

Not like American thongs — AUSTRALIAN THONGS —

(LOLOLOLOLOLOL) — You mean FLIP FLOPS….

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA… YES!!!!!!!!

(Still rolling around the floor laugh-crying at the initial thought of THONGS….)

You’ve been around Americans too long!!! REMEMBER YOU’RE AUSTRALIAN!!! Please!!!

(LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)

Nobody here — LOCAL — fuckin’ says “FLIP FLOPS” — if you say flip flops, we think you’re a TOURIST JUST VISITING!!!

(Still chuckling to himself about this!!!)

Okay… is that enough for now?

I’m not sure either, it’s been a lot… I’m sure I’ll have other questions later on… but if that’s all you want to share for today, that’s okay…

Umm… well… for the sake of the fictional blog — it might not be construction industry… it might not be hotel manager… maybe this meeting has already happened and I’m just messing with my readers…

(LOL)

Okay — love you.

Love you too!!! xoxoxoxoxoxox
