Ever since Middle School

Throughout high school, I was essentially a monk. Though I do have moments of physical attraction, I had never felt so strongly about a person before. It's hard to explain why you like a certain person but once you know that there is something there, you can't stop thinking about it--it's a lingering thought that warps your mind. My heart jumps when I see his name. And I can't stop but smile when I'm in his presence. When I see other couples that I thought weren't compatible before, I nodded in approval when I think of the happiness they all felt in each other's presence and that's why they're together. To be frank, I thought all these sickeningly romantic words and gestures will make me tired of it and forget about it all soon, but the more I think about him, the more I like him. And today just shot me up through nine clouds. We both walked out together after a study session and I don't know how but our bikes were parked nearly next to each other, as though it was a fateful moment in the movie. I really felt like it was a scripted scene because though I always wished something like that will happen, my mind is too set on the boring reality than the exciting coincidence that only derives in fiction. But there I was, walking side by side with him to our bikes and biking side by side to the same destination. The best part? I was completely normal. We conversed and he was kind and I was happy. All the excitement did not hit me until I looked back and replayed it all again in my head. I just...can't believe it. My day is made.

Black Friday Madness

Personally, I am all about spending smart and saving money, all day errday. But when people ask me what I think of Black Friday, I say it's fucking retarded. I hate this destructive hype, one that sucks people in a spending craze, within themselves and between one another, causing headlines year after year. It is not thrifty at all when you spend money on the things you don't need, even when the sale plunges deep and the price is tempting. I'm even more annoyed and even pity the people that gallops out in pride for spending a shitload of money they usually would never spend, thinking they had scored such great deals but really they are being cheated left and right . Consumers are being trapped by the idea of Black Friday, believing that surely, everything out there on this day is worth buying. It started out with waiting in line for hours in the cold, which became a motivation to spend more for their prior effort. From one consumer to another, the motivation creates the hustling and bustling atmosphere that takes away reasons and drives greedy and reckless consumption. 

It sure is exciting the first time you try it, seeing crowds of people in the middle of the night after a day of being locked up in the house. But if you consider the competition the committed Black Friday fans are in, the experience is truly stale with stress and, well, the next best word, ignorance. If you don't believe me, just read the news on the last Friday of November. That's how this rant started.
