I Met 10 Men In One Half Hour And Not One Looked Like Him hahaha

I do have an interesting group of female friends and sometimes we do crazy things without our older brothers or parents knowing until after the fact; You all are by now familiar with the Sex and the City episode about this new in-thing call speed-dating right, well two of my friends and I decided to give it a try just for fun, and buoy oh buoy were we in for something.
The way it works is you take turns getting to  know as much as you can from the person sitting across the table from you and deciding in 3 short minutes whether or not you are compatible,attracted or have anything in common at all with that person befor the Bell rings, and if there is then you arrange to go on a full date. Every 3 minutes the Bell rings and you move on to the next guy (for couple seconds you're hoping that that next guy have decent looking teeth, and that you can at least stand to look him in the eye for a few seconds heheeheee).
I swear I got a migraine because it was so noisy with people buzzing and talking all around you, then you are speed walking or running to the next table and then to the next trying to ask all the questions that you can in such a short time, and on top of that, that silly Bell just kept going off every 3 minutes. Ok thats it I said, by the 10th guy I was screaming for my Freddie.

have you ever heard of the song Its Raining Men, Hallelujah Its raining Men? well it was showering men in that place but there was not one guy that was wrapped in a bow from head to toe, not one - Every one of the ten that I un-wrapped 95 percent of the gift was missing! You meet several dating prospects within a couple of weeks and have to juggle a bunch of guys all at once? That is exactly what the scene is at speed dating, except it’s all blind dates, and you are obligated to be nice for 3 minutes, before moving on (couple times I really couldn't even bare to smile).
The only good thing was that the venue was at a decent hotel in the ballroom, so after I sneaked out and went to seat at the hotel bar and ordered some wine. While sipping on my Chardonnay I took a look at the score card that I was still holding (Its the card that you write the guys name and circle ‘Yes’if you want to see him again and if you don’t you circle ‘No’), well my card was all NO's so I guess my fake email will not be exchanged with any of the men.
In any case the next step is up to you! Very often the event will be centered around certain age groups or fields etc. My girlfriends by then had joined me at the bar, they also did not connect to any of the guys. And so we just chatted about eachothers experiences and so on. So, I was wondering what you all thought of the idea of speed-dating, have you tried it or know of someone who has? I wrote this post in an article for another outlet and one of the viewers told me that there are really good ones out there where the guys are attractive or handsome and very intelligent; I guess we must have gone to a really awful one lool
Now after my brother reads this, I'm gonna have a lot of explaining to do lool :)))
