Despite many years of tomboy-foolishness, I’m just a girl (was that gwen stefani who sang that song?). I remember once back during college somebody told me that while I appear strong and determined on the outside, when it comes down to certain things (ie: boys), I’m still such a girl like every other girl. I’m not sure if that was meant to be a compliment or insult. Anyway, girlish roller-coaster emotions of giddyness (he loves me) and despair (he loves me not) are running on turbo power these days.
On an un-related note, here’s my current list of to-see/must-see movies:
Chicken Little
Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire
Pride & Prejudice
Derailed (to see my friend as an extra!)
Kung Fu Hustle
Hitch
Fever Pitch
Love Actually
Pictures from Ireland are … coming soon … or so they say

As tough/independent/fierce as I appear sometimes, I am completely at peace with the the fact that I am a fairly typical pretty-in-pink girl, because after all, I’m just a girl. I like my flowers, fancy dinners, carefully orchestrated intricate evening outings, the typical sweep-me-off-my-feet puhzazz. In other words, I am a romantic at heart, and I like the boys who romance me. But romance is not love. And what a funny day it was for both. I heard four, count them, FOUR, accounts of people mulling over in their minds the difference between “loving” and “being in love” with someone, and the difference between romantic love versus platonic love.
