I just watched Randy Pausch’s last lecture over youtube and I give it a virtual standing ovation. I’d go into details and everything but it’s 2AM, I’m tired, and this laptop (not mine, duh) may be overheating. Anyway, in the lecture there was a line for women in relationships that went: "If you want to know a guy, don’t listen to what he says, look at what he does."
I heard that and thought about my current relationship and one thought popped into my mind:
"Oh boy. You’re in trouble now."
Pedro Gil, around 10 o’clock. The DVD vendors are packing up their merchandise. Road construction is still going on, something to do with pipes. Reighben said it took 2 years when something similar happened to their neighborhood. Street kids are selling roses for P20. I wonder, at what price were they selling them a little while earlier? The new fountain’s lights are still on at St.Paul’s. I think they’ve switched the water off. I still can’t get over the fact that the pipes used for it look terribly cheap against the shiny facade.
My hopelessly romantic ideals (which I just recently found out were hopelessly romantic) may be shooting down any potential lovers. I've never experienced a romantic relationship but I think it starts with the butterflies and all the mushy mutual feelings stuff. I've been waiting for a thunderbolt to hit me and tell me she/he's the one. I'm sorry if that's way too romantic, but I've eaten way too much from the Rom-com part of the media buffet table. That's what happens in rom-coms and stuff. Guy, girl, they meet, get hit by a thunderbolt from nowhere and, "She/He's the one."
