I don't know if I want to say this, because I don't want those of you who dont know me to get a false impression of me, though perhaps it's not false, and since you've been reading you've probably already formed some impression, so you can decide whether the following is true or not.
I have been told, that I seem distant and cold....at least upon first impression.
This is rather interesting because my dad gives off the same impression...he's a gemini(he's really not like that) and I actually have gemini moon.
That's besides the point, especially if you don't believe in the affect of gravitional force between bodies...
So I've been pondering this one, since every time I bring it up to a friend or my new favorite boy Brian, they agree. Brian said when he first met me i was cold and distant and that's why he wasn't attracted to me, until I opened up. I told him, that's ok cause when i heard you were from LA I figured you were like the rest so I wasn't attracted (did this account for the coldness?).
Well, then i mentioned it to a group of Minnesoties....and they didn't immediately react to negate the fact, they listened ( I think may have thought of the proper answer) and said "You? heh, cold...?"
Last night I told Dan about this, and he said", yeah I can see that, but not in a bad way, the way you're taking it." He said, if you had a choice between a relationship and doing something to get ahead in work ,you'd choose the latter. You're just ambitious.
I thought, aha that's it. It's just that I am young, and know what i want. Is that so wrong?
Then today I thought about it and that can't be true. There have been many times when I knew I shouldve been in class, or working on something, but taking the time to be with a friend was more important so I shifted things, took more work on to be able to do so. Or how I am terribly busy these days, and it's a crucial point in my career....yet I still find time to hang with my favorite boy (though it seems he has less time than me).
I understand this is a European mentality. If you're on youre way to work and you run into someone on the street, you stop and greet them with no concern of hurrying to work or the "let'e get together soon! Call me!" Lines delivered in the US.
That's it. I must not be cold......i am just European!

Europe always felt smarter to me, too. Now, it's possible that's just an accent-thing. But keep up the good work.
On a random note, MisterDan got paid for the first time yesterday. This means airline tickets are gradually becoming more and more affordable...
as Europeans we acknowledge we prefer stopping with friends than running to jobs and duties.
the straight way is often the less happy - where's the unexpected in that?
it's just like visiting Paris using the Metro' instead of walking through the streets.
life is complication - only the angels have no one.
but they'd like to have.
I think people in Minnesota are cold and distant.
Why?
It's easy to blame the weather, but I think the real reason is because everyone is so inscestous - meaning everyone has there own group and God forbid you venture out of that group, thus, the coldness to new people.
