Negativity of the day:
One of the things I disrespect most about a person is when they join organizations for the sole purpose of putting it on college apps or resumes. Or when they say they're part of an organization, but they do jack shit. Do you really not have any hobbies or interests that you can actually pursue so that you don't have to pretend you are involved in things that you really aren't?

EXT. BROADWAY SIDEWALK - EVENING
CONZ is walking down Broadway to Stern. Suddenly a MAN, Asian, looks in his 30's, approaches her on the street. They walk and talk.

Do you want to be friends?
CONZ
Uh... why?

It'd be nice to be friends with you.
CONZ
Are you new here?
MAN
Yeah.
CONZ
When did you move here?
MAN
A year ago.
CONZ
Where are you from?
MAN
Connecticut. Do you go to NYU?
CONZ
Yeah.
MAN
You must study a lot.
CONZ
Uhhh... I can't really say that.
MAN
So do you want to switch numbers?
CONZ
Uh, sorry, I don't really know you...
MAN
Well we could be friends then.
CONZ
Sorry, I'm not really comfortable... with... that... Thank you, but sorry.
I used to not believe it when people in movies just meet in public places by striking up conversations with strangers, but the fact that this has happened to me twice, plus the instance that I've witnessed two strangers hitting it off in a laundry room, is starting to make me believe that maybe people do just meet on the streets.
I wish people in real life were a lot more charming with striking up conversation though.
And cuter.
Um, creeper much? One does not simply befriend strangers on the street.
ReplyDeleteI wish it was easier to meet guys. I am like in love with anyone that is nice to me. It's really sad.
