A meeting of two geeks

It was a fortuitous encounter - a meeting of two very cute and unapologetic geeks on DSD's birthday last November. I'd like to say I knew right away that there was something there. Of course, it wasn't too hard to tell when they started conversing and got along like a house on fire. Whether it was about INSEAD (he's an alumnus, she's a student there now), iPhone applications, or foot massages, their conversation kept them in a world of their own. The rest of us hung back while the two of them walked side by side at Robertson Quay.

I couldn't stop grinning that night, thinking about our Van meeting a kindred spirit.

I was gleeful again last night, when DSD and I received SMSes from Van Tan about RT - "It's official!"

Unlike our last orchestration - R (my brother) and S (DSD's buddy) out on a blind date - I had nothing to do with this and DSD didn't even know RT when he came with a friend to her birthday dinner. But I did take pictures.

Not a big orchestration on my part except that I purposely planned the seating arrangement to be so after learning from Rodney that RT is an INSEAD alumnus! And hey, I let a stranger come to my birthday dinner. Haha.

DSD, you certainly bring people together, even without trying! I hope you'll be on the receiving end one day!

Hope you get to meet R soon, Queenie. He and Van are cute together!
