OrientedDis.. Disoriented. |
Friday, July 12, 2002 taking the time.. to say hello from Seattle, WA :) .. heh.. I have arrived at the conference and I and some others have found the computer lab and are happily typing away at e-mail (or in my case, my blog). Anyway. I have a lot to say, but not much is going to be said just yet. I'm really tired. It was pretty crazy to actually see Alex face-to-face for the first time in sooo long.. but it's still really nice to have him here, ha, even though I feel like I'm in a daze/dream so-far. The bus trip here... I wrote about it in hand (very unusual) on the way to the building where everyone met for the conference. Maybe I'll write about it later, or write about it shortly now (but not in nearly the way it deserves to be described as..): I witnessed love in it's purest form on the bus ride. Heh. I just thought it was really beautiful. *shrug* I noticed the man was kind of blind because he had a guiding-stick, but the lady he had just met.. (they were an older couple).. lol.. they just could not stop hugging and kissing. I think the lady sitting next to me was kind of annoyed by it, but I thought there was something really special about it all. Here was a blind man - he evidently loved this lady for her inner characteristics/personality, while she loved him for his.. being that he was at least partial blind (I don't think completely though). Anyway. I don't know.. I thought it was really sweet.. then I overheard something about how they hadn't seen each other in over 55 years. 55 years??. Wow.. and they're still in love. I couldn't help but think during that moment that maybe I'd like to marry a blind man some day.. or... maybe I'll get lucky and meet someone with the intentions of first seeing me as a blind man would. blah. I'm feeling delusional now. really tired. more about the trip in my other blog.. (splitting things up here :P .. making things 'difficult' I suppose) . . . babbled Lin |
