I liked how he talked about the things that he has treasured for so long. And the part where he said that even if he was offered a role in a Hollywood horror movie, he'd definitely refuse! I didn't think the reason he didn't like those movies was because he actually BELIEVED things like that could happen for real! And I especially loved his honesty in that whole last paragraph.

Thank you for translating!

Hmmmm....quite an interesting essay here. Let me cut to the chase and get to the final paragraph where he really talks about "love". There were a few interesting points for me and sorry if my comments are just as long as Pi's essay ( ... )

Hi watchful! Here's what I think:

(1) Agree with you there!

(2) This line was so funny and I'm surprised he put it here.

(3) I felt he was referring to his father perhaps? Like how his dad left b/c he lacked unconditional love for the family? I dunno...

(4) I actually agree with him here. Making time for each other is pretty crucial to have a relationship work.

It's hard to imagine that somebody could break our Pi's heart. I feel bad for him but hope that doesn't make him cynical about love.

I definitely agree with #4 too, I'm just surprised he spent so long to make that point and it wasn't just a one-liner for him. Don't know if he's cynical, but didn't he say, "my heart is incredibly wary of love"?. [utaban, june 1, 2006]

I remember around that time he even said he might not get married at all. Someone really did hurt him, I think.
Pi and I have same thoughts about this. I am too still can't figure out "Ai" except my family Ai
Maybe we haven't found our fated someone???
