Much ado about nothing

Hmm, it's been a while since I last posted... Nothing really much has been happening in my life really. I've just been really busy with camp stuff, church stuff and the stuff in between... Kind of like how a sandwich consists of the bread (camp stuff) the filling (church stuff), and whatever else you want to add (others).

Anyway, I suddenly feel like posting about how the silver screen depicts love in a standard way and how relationships are really off-kelter. It's almost always, guy and girl like each other mutually, but due to some obstacle or misconception, they don't get together... At least at first... Or at the very least some chivalrous thing the guy does for the girl he likes allows her to fall for him.

Part of me is relieved real-life isn't like that... Cos in real life, you don't always get the chance to do something as asinine as saving a beautiful damsel in distress or find love at first sight. Most of the time you have to woo a girl (I think) and win her over. (If this sounds disastrously wrong, forgive me, I'm the forever single). If wooing a girl never happened, most guys would be huddling beside a puddle waiting for a girl to slip and jump desperately to their rescue just to gain a girlfriend.

Yet another part of me wonders if real-life would be better if it imitated reel-life... Have a friend whom you like, and she likes you too, after a few paltry obstacles you fall madly in love with each other... Or after doing lots and lots of things, the girl knows without a fact you love her and falls for you... or some sappy crap like that, it'd be nice for a change, then nice guys wouldn't finish last, as they almost always do.

The world probably has something against the nice guys in life. They either aren't interesting enough, are too shy, aren't pushy enough, ugly, fat or unsuccesful (i.e poor)... The nice guy unlike the bad boys, have to be perfect just to get a girl, they must have the 5Cs(condo, cash, credit card, car and country club), look good, be understanding, while being able to defend the girl without being a wuss, However the bad boy is the renegade and all he needs is a smile and his bloody motorcycle. How typical of the world. They look for perfection but fall back on power and masculinity anyway.

So you'd think no! That's not true, a sweet caring guy would be preferable to the bad traitorous kind. And I'd say, that's odd, Russell Crowe has temper tantrums, lashes out in petty fits, yethas a wife who loves him... Bill Clinton had a 'I did not have oral sex with that woman' relationship and he's still together with his wife. Yet, yet, people like Tobey Maguire (vegetarian, avoids drugs and alcohol,enjoys yoga and cooking [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001497/bio] enjoys fame as spiderman) , and Chris Evans (nice, humble, also a vegetarian and enjoys fame as Johnny Storm in FF4) are both embarassingly single.

What's up with this world, well... Maybe you can tell me... Till next time, Talion out.
