If We're In Love, We Should Make Love - But When Will That Be?
I went to see the Backstreet Boys in concert tonight and was transformed to my pre-teeny bopper stage of life, where all I did was listen to cheesey pop and whatever was the latest trend in Smash Hits Magazine and the like. A couple of years ago, my fellow cheesey-pop friend and I had made a pact that whenever BSB toured, we'd just HAVE to go and see them, no matter what the seats were like. When the tickets were on sale, she and I were going through a phase of not speaking and I'd forgotten about the pact. But she didn't. ANd when we made up, she invited me to go and see them!
So that's a little bit of background HIStory for ya. Needless to say, the concert was AWESOME and the boys looked FINE ;-). They were on stage for nearly 1 hour and 50 minutes which is really good for an artist, particularly an American one. I was really really impressed with their vocal ability and for a small period of time, I was transformed to kiddy status with songs like More Than That, Larger Than Life, Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely and I Want It That Way - my favourites. I loved it.
Apart from that, I don't really have much to say. I woke up with a spring in my step today and I find that so weird, as I went to bed at 2, woke up at 5 for the Fast and then woke up at 9, without having had enough sleep. Maybe it was the talk that I had with Fati that made me realise my self worth. I'm starting to realise that maybe if I talk to somebody and they do not reciprocate, it just MIGHT NOT be the end of the world. Its a long process to go though...
We approached this REALLY stringent, serious kinda guy after class today. He's a Canadian Chinese and I nicknamed him the Nazi, as he NEVER smiles and apparently never goes out, preferring to study instead. He seemed a little freaky, but that only appealed to me more. SO we spoke to him and I waved and said hello and he seems like such a nice guy. He actually smiled a couple of times, which softened his face and made me see a totally different perspective on him. WE invited him to be a part of our study group as I think he'd be very effective and really good help.
I'm also hoping to get the courage to talk to a girl from my Seminar group in the next few days. She's a Cypriot and is very very pretty, called Thekla and is also very well prepared in her Seminars. I am unuaully drawn to her, maybe because she has such a warm, lovely smile and always says hello and waves goodbye, before and after our seminars. If I see her, I'm going to approach her and ask her to come out with us sometime. If I can talk to somebody like her successfully, then the only way is up for my confidence.
I bought my first gay magazine the other day and it was a pretty big deal for me. I've never considered buying one, but most male magazines are full of naked women and I don't want stuff like that lying around the house. So I bought a copy of Attitude, complete with Madonna cover and interview, from the SU Shop, complete with strange look from a guy looking at magazines. I smirked at the response and went to pay for it. The lady at the counter didn't even bat an eyelid. I was rather excited by it all. Its a big deal for me.
