THE JAPANEEN

chinese/thai peanut chicken with noodles and chives and garlic and ginger.

i just made supper with david, kylie, jake and abby. It was a random group because david invited me over and abby and i were planning on making supper anyway. but they’re such pleasant people and the meal was so tasty. i really enjoyed sitting down properly and talking not about hating people, or disliking a show or only sharing person stories AND ALL WITHOUT CELLPHONES AT THE TABLE. It was a great feeling to be engaged while interacting. we had all the right ingredients and it took like an hour to make. It was delicious and then we ordered desert from joeys and joked about ellen and watched clips of the virgin diaries and then discussed the flaws in “extreme home makeovers”. we all got freaked out by the creepy doorbell when anna came during the washing of the dishes and then as we departed we all agreed we’d do this again and make different ethnic food. i suggested we point to a map and whatever country it lands on we cook food from that place. those people are smart. i like them and i really hope it happens again.

remi collette is a boy who goes to my school. he was in my philopshy class and has probably been in another one of my classes as well. We have the same group of friends but don’t really interact with each other, in fact he’s across the table from me right now reading a comic book but we’re not going to say anything to each other until one of us leave and we are socially forced to bid each other adieu. I once complimented him on a creative writing narrative piece he wrote for seven mondays but he never really reciprocated much of a response more than a mere half-smile, “thanks”. I think he’s really neat and I’ve only really talked to him for more than 10 minutes once, but that’s when i was drunk and it was also during a Bolivia show, so it’s not like it was much by choice, it just kind of happened. He’s a naturally introverted kind of dude who likes comic books and philosophy and shit I would have no idea about otherwise if i didn’t know he liked it. i’m not confessing a crush on this guy, i am just sad we’re not friends. i think he’s handsome but i wouldn’t date him. i just wonder what he thinks of me, because  the impression i get from him is that i am a nuisance. i have no idea why i think that’s what he thinks of me, but i just get that feeling. i’ve looked through pictures he’s taken which are by no means outstanding but they’re interesting because he took them from his perspective view. remi collette, i don’t think he likes me, but that’s alright because i’m fascinated enough with him for the both of us.
