Time-Traveling is Fun!

Hard to believe it's been more than two years since I've updated this blog. Better make it good.

Life is not a movie. As a frequent movie viewer, I have seen many action movies, comedies, dramas, comedy-dramas, dramedies, romantic comedies, comedic romanties, and so on. Art imitates life, not the other way around. in all of my experiences, I am always expecting moments of my life to equate to things I've seen in movies, and I have been met with nothing but disappointment.

Heart-On-Sleeve Syndrome. As jaded as I have become about finding someone, I continue to put myself in a vulnerable state.

Some recent revelations.

1. Extreme kindness can be misconstrued as romantic interest.
2. I cannot interpret "signals".
3. Before you travel halfway across the country to meet up with a girl, make sure she's interested in you.
4. If a girl who has run in multiple marathons asks you to go for a run, and you don't run, don't go for a run with her.
5. If you wait until the end of your trip to try and tell a girl how you feel (in order to avoid awkwardness for the entire trip), it will still be awkward. On top of that, you can't really explain things very well after that.
6. No matter how perfect a day is, I can always manage to mess it up by thinking about it.
7. Don't wear a Superman shirt to the airport. TSA will tear into you like it's Night at the Improv.
