Tim and Jem, you guys KNOW you're jealous!

oh yeah you 2 guys know you're so jealous of me

so anyway, i just came back from a Tommy Emmanuel concert with Tim and Jem. and it was so  amazing. 

and the beautiful thing is, i met this beautiful caucasian girl with a lip stud, and she talked to us, but SPECIFICALLY TO ME. 

and she used a horrible pick up line! she asked 'excuse me, do you know where to get an afro wig?'

i mean, come on, can you believe someone would actually use such a random and horrible pickup line? and did i mention i'm totally nuts about pretty caucasian girls who have lip piercings, are shorter than me, and use totally random and horrible pickup lines? 

oh yeah i'm NUTS about them.

and so now tim and jem are sick with envy that she talked to ME. ME! and tim had to steal the attention away from me by telling her where to find afro wigs while i was soaking in the amazing moment where i've finally met my soul mate.

ah nothing like a little distortion of the truth. but hey, boys, please don't be jealous of me. man i really should have offered to BRING her to the party store or whatever. 

so, i guess the last gig of the year is over. and it was so amazing. 

i'm starting to realise that there seems to be no way i can ever lock any memories of gigs and replay them in my head. but i think the beauty of it is fleeting. and it's pretty amazing. sadly, i think i've only been to 2 official gigs, both of them this year and in this semester. but hey, it's Joe Satriani's fault for refusing to put on a show here. 

anyway, back to fleeting beauty. if i may roughly quote and summarize C.S Lewis and Donald Miller, one ironic constant of our human life is change. although C.S Lewis says that we fluctuate around a heavenbound path , while Donald Miller says that the beauty of change is to see how much we have changed once we have returned from a journey while others remain the same. ok i'm not quoting the exactly what they said, and i suspect i'm manipulating their words a little bit so i could get to my point. but what i'm trying to say is, hmmm.... oh well, i'm not sure what i'm trying to say. maybe something about how we should seize the day, the moment, or maybe something about avoiding ending up in a state of denial where we find out too late that we have somehow manage to seemingly cryogenically freeze ourselves while everything else has thawed with time, and altered so much that our frozen state is obsolete, and our best attempt is nothing more than a futile struggle.

but i'd say the best thing is to um, ignore that whole paragraph. i need some sleep. 

so tim and jem, stop being so jealous of me. SHE CHOSE ME. LIVE WITH IT MUAHAHAHAHA
