Empathy For Me And You And Everyone We Know

So back to Titanic, let’s talk about empathy. How can someone like me, who’s never really been in love, understand what Jack and Rose had between them?

I quit vodka three weeks ago, but I just had a relapse tonight, hence why I am up at 7:12am blogging. Nothing good ever happens under the presence of it. Thanks to New York MTA, I had to take the NQRW to go home and that usually takes 30 minutes more than the time it usually takes for me to get to Manhattan. (I am still a little bit tipsy right now…) Like I always did, I slept through my station on the subway, at least it’s only one stop past this time.

As I was sitting on the other side of the platform waiting for the subway to come, (it was so fucking cold) I thought about Jack and Rose. It was snowing, I think it still is too and I was cleary not wearing enough clothes. Warm weather is supposed to be here by now, for shit’s sake it’s already March 1st. I was in my polyester poofy jacket and I was still so flippin’ pancakes cold. If only I could only imagine how the hell they manage to stay alive so long while floating in the Atlantic Ocean and how Rose was able to blow that whistle after all that. I love Kate Winslet. Jack must really love Rose, and it must have been really, fucking, cold.

That was basically it, but it was a pretty epic realization at the moment. Now some pictures from Nyonya (best Malayyysian) and Sultana.


This wasn’t really good

I woke up just now and found out that I did not publish this post when I finished writing this earlier. Thank goodness because I must have been more than just tipsy. I remember confusing myself at the “still so flippin’ pancakes” part since I thought I was talking about pancakes so I said something about IHOP. I also just remembered that I left my keys and was profusely ringing the doorbell at possibly 5 in the morning in order to wake my poor roommate up to open the door for me, then I mumbled something at her, I hope it wasn’t mean, I’ll ask her about it later. I am now going to shower and prepare myself for Sneaker Con with Mr. E, see you later with updates.
