Vicky's actual name , I can hardly remember but I'm sure it would have been something I could not pronounce, something in Cantonese like Ming Yuu---oo--ng... , I dont want to be racist but Chinese names are frankly very difficult to pronounce unless it is small or cute like Lin Lin or Ming Ming. Hence, it is necessary for Chinese students overseas to have names like Bryan , Stella and so on... which is kinda cool coz they can choose a nice name for themselves and you can hold on to it for the rest of your life , if you choose to stay back in that country.
Alrite then, too much crap about names now, one thing you'll notice about Chinese students overseas is that they are always in their group n speaking in Cantonese or Mandarin.. Also, within the group they are always in pairs like 1 guy 1 girl or 2 guys 2 girls and you will see that couple hang out throughout the semester..// sit together during lectures, together in the lab doing assignments..// probably live together n have sex as well.. watever..// On the other hand, If you look at the Indian students group overseas, probably have 4 Desi boys and 1 nerdy girl..// The boys try and hit on Chinese girls but its hard for them coz 1. Chinese girls don't speak good English..// very rarely , which can be an advantage some times..// 2. Like I said they come in pairs and hence very difficult to get thru.
Now, as you know Vicky is Chinese , been in NZ for 5 yrs studying at a good university at Auckland, NZ . She is fair, tall compared to other Chinese girls, she has beautiful hair that she keeps tied up and has really nice n deep eyes..// I'll call her a serene beauty and also, great sense of style..// carries a knock off louis vitton bag ( plenty can be bought from China town ), lives at an apartment building wid a random room mate at upper Queen Street at Auckland CBD.
Lucy aka LUCKY aka Puneet is a hard core Delhi boy, born and brought up in Delhi lives in East Delhi with his family and is one of the most memorable and interesting people I have met in my life.
He is a remarkable human being and has a personality that can instantly connect wid people..// You can put Lucy in a room wid the devil and I'm sure after 10 mins, they would come out together laughing as if they have been friends for ages. Moreover, Lucy lives with his set of rules..// he loves his playstation..// has a steady girl friend which he refers to as his " Bandi" ...// when me n Lucy came to NZ together to study at University..// Lucy had a single point agenda ( which I admire immensely as I'm not capable of sticking to a plan ) n that was to stay put in NZ..// watever happens Lucy's resolve was that he is not going back..// he was done wid crowded Delhi buses n traffic n noise n wat ever else Slumdog Millionaire has glorified around the world about India. He sure misses Indian food but lets be real..// who does n't ..// I mean I missed Indian food more than I missed my folks in India..// but those parties n freedom..// nights spend roaming high on Queen street n at Showgirlz... some how makes up for the food. Interestingly, As I gave you a vague visual idea of Vicky, I think.. it would be nice to give you a fair idea about lucy as both of them are the protagonists of this short story , blog , watever. Now, as can be seen Vicky has been described as a serene beauty by myself n well lucy..../// hmmm... I dont wanna be too honest coz he might read this...// well.. lets just say Lucy was not that gifted in the looks department... He's like your average Joe..., medium height n built , dark , wears glasses ( tried contacts but did not work ) , has a bit of a tummy...// but but but !!! his personality n sense of humor makes up for it...!! Whenever I remember the time I spent wid Lucy ..., I can only think of the movie Shallow Hal... Lucy can be Jack Black n I George Castansa... n v were probably like them... beautiful girlz never used to notice us... But, everything was gonna change n Lucy n Vicky met.....
