Self and self and self

It's me again. Thanks.

Some empowering comments of late.
I hanged out with Ruchama and her sister a couple of days ago. She was telling me how she had heard stories about me (eeeeeeeeek), and how cool she thinks I am. Wow. She said that she wanted to be like me. Double whammy. Misguided poor youth!

I remember a few years ago, I told Hin the exact same thing. I told him, when we were eating at the Asian Ghetto, that I wanted to be just like him. I had a big huge smile on my face, and was completely sincere when I said that. He's just so different from me, complete opposite. Really. I had grown up in America, in a middle class family in the suburbs. I had been loved by both of my parents. Hin is coming from a working class family in dense urban Hong Kong. He was really inspiring. He left America just yesterday. In parting he said that I had changed something in him. Cool. I hope it was his hygenic habits. :p

Sharl definately changed somethings for me. We were talking about what it's like to be single, and this 'dating' thing. Yuck. I'm sort of inhibited, I suppose. I'm curious, and I want to enjoy life. I want to make more friends and be less of a loner all the time. Sharl said, 'Do what you want. It's your life.' .........

so unemployment... unemployment...
