Meet Bear aka (Bob) Marley

WAHHHH. too bad my allergies are being more annoying than a million mosquitoes. damnit, i just let him in. i'm such a sucker.... oh well! goodnight guys!

yeah, you see it. an untitled blog because this will talk about absolutely (or positively as the Canadians write) nothing! except life. Last night was great, for it was meteor shower live in '09! I received one hour of sleep for every meteor that i saw leaving me at a grand total of..........drum roll, please. five. Now, I'm here, sitting at work, bright and early, lethargically snacking on a saltine cracker aka today's breakfast; It was so worth it. It was like camping with the best- we have our musically inclined, story-tellers, a solo photographer who captures the stars, comedians, flatulence enriched [ew] and mixed with alcohol we form a special cocktail that is on the top of the list of spirits. I'll have to plan a camping excursion soon. Any suggestions for campsites?

my move date is coming in two weeks. i'm counting down. watch out, Southern California! I'm excited. This is the beginning of struggles, life revelations, career opportunities, delicious cuisine and new friendships. Some good ol' challenges and chances to really rediscover what's important. can't wait.

Facebook is taking over the world!

500 days of summer

an honest and unconventional love story that captures the heart of the viewers; myself, being one. It ponders the very question that many movies(such as my sassy girl and you've got mail) put forth. FATE! so fate does exist? hm, some may get riled up on this question. After all, to be convinced that every person in this earth is destined to be friends with their friends or marry what we call 'the one', is hard to fathom, but can't a dreamer dream?

Monogomy? What?

Why do we get into relationships? We allow a person into our lives and into our hearts, risking heartbreak and emotional turbulence, hoping that the good times will outweigh the bad. We let our guard down in exchange for connection. We invest our very selves in something much bigger than us; the possibility of falling in love.

Finding “the one” is no easy task. It’s a strenuous game of trial and error that can leave us exhausted and crushed if we are not careful. In the search for connection we expose our most secret sides to another person, trusting that they will see something in us that is worth holding on to. But if finding “the one” is in fact so difficult and so wearying, why are we willing to give love a chance time after time?

These days, monogamy appears to be a dying concept. It seems as though less and less people are seeking something concrete and exclusive, opting instead for filler and fun. This concept can significantly complicate matters of relationships, because it can often be difficult to differentiate the ones who are seeking just another good time from the ones who are truly seeking someone to invest in.

In a world where the notion of monogamy seems to be disappearing as quickly as old-fashioned romance and dating, how safe is it to invest in the idea of something more? Are we just fooling ourselves, or do we really have another half? Are we betting too much in this love game, all the while setting ourselves up to be hurt?

Is monogamy dead?
