Me = Nom Nom Upon a Feast of Thoughts
After reading an article about the tragic story of this unfortunate, deeply in love couple, I've completely rethought my acceptance in age differences. Yes, I'll agree that it's awkward and strange to the new generation. I mean..we're the inventors of the term cougar =.= and seem to reinforce the term pedophile. (Sidenote: I don't know why, but that word displeases me. It just sounds so intensely displeasing to my eardrums.) ANYWAYS...
Now, I feel like age is such a taboo topic to speak of because of generation gaps. Of course if a girl was dating one of her father's golf buddies, it would seem different. Generation gaps are the core of growing up and being a teenager. You experience these things as a teen, such are the rebel years. So it would seem logical to assume that taking upon that generation gap disagreement in values and bringing the bar up to a relationship factor left to something as unstable as emotions to see eye to eye to. Well...then..if that made sense to you, obviously..it's worse. Isn't it? Relationships aren't really something based upon generation gaps though. True, experience is a factor and true again, at least being able to see the others' values are preferred, but isn't it just really what is felt and what is compatible.
Perhaps what I'm wishing too much for is my soul wish to find a soul mate. Relationship or not. I've always wished for someone to have the ability to be there for me for the rest of my life. Perhaps, that is really what everyone is looking for when it comes down to it. Not really a relationship. Love and acceptance. I suppose kisses and cuddly attention is preferred to the general population. Hrm, but yes, after reading this article...I find the age factor a less and less of a major factor in relationships. If you want love and acceptance, it seems to me as though anyone should be able to give it to you. Why would it be soulfully within 3 or 5 years around your age?
Hrm...well..of course. Let's not hide it. A decade difference in a relationship slightly raises the eyebrows of society, even more so in the upcoming generations. But...care to take in an example? Phil Jackson, head coach of the Lakers NBA team has a girlfriend, Jeanie Buss. They're 16 years apart. I don't see anybody complaining about them. Why? Just because Jackson's the head coach of the Lakers? and Buss is the team's manager's daughter? It's not like they fly under the radar either. So...why? Because they're older? Jackson's 65 and Buss' 49. Oh...okay, now their age is known. What now?
Who are we to deny someone with what makes them happy? Truly happy? Permanently happy? As long as they're having a happy relationship, I don't see the harm in it.
So this train of thought led me to thinking about Prop 8. Yes...I'm going "political." I've always thought nothing was wrong with a homosexual relationship, so it should come as no surprise that I would think nothing is wrong with a homosexual marriage. What makes you happy. What makes you truly happy....what is the fault in that? The Greeks found the most pure relationship between an older man and a younger man, within a teacher-student relationship because there is emotional and spiritual growth there. You learn from one another. So..what kind of meanie face would take away that pure happiness from someone? I...I just don't understand.
Well..it's almost 3am. I'm going to die in class tomorrow for sure now. =.= Kaybye. Goodnight.

Me = Enjoying Thanksgiving Stuffing
So pretty much spent Thanksgiving night with my little sister. We ate some noodles that I made (nooo, not instant...Thanksgiving technically should be more fancy I guess, but there wasn't enough food to go all that fancy). The game night at my Irvine friend's house was pretty fun. =) I made cinnamon rolls with a Jie Jie for the first time this Wednesday there, but it was too salty and there was too much of a wheat taste in the dough. I guess it's from the flour and I'm quite interested in making them again and modifying parts of the recipe to suit what I want to try out. Mhm. Mhm. Reminder to self: Ask for Jie Jie's recipe first. Anyway, played black ops (was horrible, even though I shanked some people... xD), ate pumpkin squares (I am officially a fan of pumpkin pie....yummilicious), band hero, jenga, charades, mario party 8 (although, that was pretty boring, even though in the end, I gave up because I was sent back to the beginning twice before I got to the end...and then my friend actually won the game somehow when I quit...go Yoshi!..haha xD) Hrm. What else...OH! My Ge Ge made this completely delicious KBBQ sliders. Yes. So yummy. ^^ I stayed over at Irvine and woke up at 1:30pm. Yes...I know.. xD HAHA. Technically I slept like at 3 or 4.. so yeah. Don't judge Hrmph.
Okay so next day, had 3 scrambled eggs and some milk for "breakfast" and then more pumpkin squares and watched Kung Fu Panda and then watched the Saints vs. Cowboys game. Yes....Saints won..That's right. =) Haha. ^^ Came home around 6 something and then yeah had the noodles and blah blah.
Okay! Today! Haha. Woke up at 1:30 again. So fail. xD Heh... Yeah..turkey stuffing is the best. =) It's so good. ^^ Haha, hrm. A close friend brought over her Thanksgiving leftovers and we gorged on that. Later, we went to Vons and got some foodie and ice cream. What elllse....oh, we got Fae Mao and then came back home to watch the Silence of the Lambs in the dark. Pretty cool movie. =) I got some songs too today. =) Yay! ^^
I'm super hoping that Ge Ge gets his cleaning done so that we can play tomorrow. =< That would be nice. Hrm. Well, I guess some of my merits are going into that because I'm kind of thinking about that a lot. Oh well, it's okkies. At least Ge Ge will be able to get his present. =) Kay. It's super late now. I'm going to bed. Kaybye. =)
