the truman show's on tv now.
just finished watching city of angels.
a nice movie, that.
and the rents have found out.
to say that they're not very happy would be an understatement.
mom talks about it more. how they are totally against it.
"he's not of a good social standing."
for once, i feel sorry for gee.
and sorry for myself.
that we're both stuck in this "social status" crap.
who she wants is her own choice.
and whoever i want would be mine.
it's hard enough to find someone out there you want to spend your entire life with.
but to make sure that he's 'at least of the same social standing'?
please.
that's like trying to make your 6 inch high manolo blahniks your bedroom slippers.
and i really feel for her.
i mean, she's been hiding it for 8 months.
and in the end, she tells me.
quite honoured that she would actually tell me over the rents.
but then again, i am probably the most open one.
and she, being the older one has to go through this first.
and i guess all i can do is support her.
although i am a little apprehensive about this..
i know this must sound mean, but it is quite relieving to find out that miss perfect actually screwed up.
ok, not screwed up.
if the rents were accomodating people who looked past materialistic discrepancies, none of this would have happened.
but then again, theirs was a marriage built on materialistic demands. so i don't see how they could think otherwise.
something tells me that in 9 years, i'd be facing the exact same thing.
maybe even earlier.
but for now, all i can do is stand behind gee.
for all the crap she has put up for me, this is probably the least that i could do.
Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
Like any hot-blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you, you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat heartening
To watch shepherd need shepherd
But you you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate
-alanis morisette.
