As far as the weekend went, obviously it went by quick smart.
Didn't get up to much really. Friday, after i told myself that i was staying in, i did try and stay in. I went straight home and around 8pm, Trivial called and told me he was on his way to pick me up for a 4th of July BBQ, i couldn't say no to the promise of hot dogs. And boy was it fun. There was ALL sorts of American cuisine and it was just the most chilled BBQ. Loads of Nationalities and just plain fun. Trivial took me home about 11pm, and i was sooooo knackered i woke up in my clothes at 6am!
Saturday. I only stepped out of the house to buy DVDs ( i love buying them) and buy simba chips. I watched Mad Money (Katie Homles, Queen Latifah and Diane Keaton). Found it to be much better than i ever expected it be. I found it really funny, maybe i had no expectations but i had a ball watching it. I would give it a three out of five. Its definitely entertaining enough. It might just be coz i love me some queen latifah, she's fab isn't she?!
I also watched a LOT of E! and managed to catch Living Lohan for the first time, and i have to say, i have read a lot about it on the net and in all the interviews I've seen with Dina Lohan, she says that they don't focus on lindsay at all. They may not actually show her, but her name is brought up in every conversation and her pictures are focused on all the time. I don't know why, but it put me off the show. They may not admit it, but they are sooooo using her name and image to gain publicity. shame.
So, last night i was watching an episode of Friends (season 8 ep 16) and it was about this British guy who phoebe believes is Monica's soulmate. And it just got me thinking about that concept of soulmates...esp the notion of ONE soulmate...
Obviously as a girl, i have thought about and discussed this issue with my girlfriends heaps of times. I personally don't believe in soulmates. I believe that in one's life, one will come across several people who will affect and move them in different ways, and these people are not guaranteed to be of the opposite sex. I'm not completely against the idea of spending the rest of one's life with one person, but i just think that it's unrealistic to assume that only one person in the entire universe is made for you and that is the person who will shake you to the core and change your views on love and life. I also believe that It may not be a romantic connection, it could be in the form of a friendship so deep and meaningful that that friend becomes more important to you than anyone else. I don't know whether its because of my history with men and relationships (which is limited coz im only 22) but I'm sure that a lot of people disagree with me, im cool with that. I'm just saying that surely if this phenomenon of the does exist, there has to be more than one "soulmate", because let's face it, every time we're in a relationship we think..THIS IS MY SOULMATE until he/she turns out not to be the person you expected them to be or you grow out of each other. I just feel like this whole soulmates thing wouldn't be such a big deal if the idea hadn't been sold to us by hundreds of Hollywood creations.
For me, I'm not completely sold on the whole thing. To me, it just does not seem very rational to think that way, and to only expect to fall madly in love with one person in this life time.
I just read this back and i realise I'm sounding like Miranda from Sex and The City! SO here are a bit of the lyrics from Natasha Bedingfield's Soulmate...maybe its a summary of the way i feel sometimes..
Anywho, I'm coming down with something, i woke up yesterday with a high temp and the most excruciating sore throat, and it hasn't changed, but now by nose is blocked and my glands are swollen. I had to come to work this morning, staying home just wasn't an option. I have sooooooooo much to do coz i'm handling a major event starting Wednesday..trust my luck to get sick when i have major work!
Have a pleasant (as possible) Monday..
That's it. Unwritten.
