Homecoming

            

 - I'm sorry, Cap.
- About what? The fact that I don't have a plan?
- No, the fact that I judged you for it. I was wrong.
- What has gotten into you?
- What do you mean?
- You're so nice, and care-free, and beach-babe beautiful, I feel like I'm on a tampon commercial.
- That's because in four days I have to go back to school and figure out what I wanna do with the rest of my life.
- And what about that ten-year plan?
- Let's just say I coppied off someone else's paper and now I don't know what I'll be doing in ten minutes. I'm staring out into the vast empty ocean that is my future.
- Feels good, doesn't it?
- It does, and... It feels terrifying.

moving on

Today I'm talking about ABC's Greek character Katherine. If, like me, you're a total freak of the show and you've seen the four seasons at least twice by now, you should have provably noticed this minor personage that, in my oppinion, has a lot to teach to everyone of us. And if you've never heard of the show or you did but don't like it, you're extremely likely not to understand what is going on in the next few lines. If so, I'm really really sorry for you, as you're missing one of the best teen series that has been broadcasted in the last two thousand years.

"Hi! my name is Katherine Parker, I'm former Panhellenic president of Gamma Psi Alpha. This house is specially important to me because this is where I lost my virginity. I know! it was like... two months ago! (awkward silence) So... how many of you guys lost your virginity at this house?"

As president of her sorority, chair of the panhellenic committee and always the best marks in the class, she likes to have absolutely everything under control. She's spent the last 19 years of her life caring about the future and being a responsible good girl, but now it's last year in college and she starts thinking that there's a great part of University life that she's been missing. So, with the determination and strict organization that characerizes her, she plans to do all the things the rest of the people have been doing during their three-year degree, but all in a rush. I'll never ever forget how she scheduled a time to lose her virginity to Rusty, and even came with a folder full of condoms for him to choose from. OR when she tried to seduce him only in a man's white shirt, saying she did "research" about what men found erothic. Wow.

I find this kind of attitude rather heart-touching, provably because there's a big part of Katherine into me. In fact, I'm sure every single one of us have a smaller or bigger piece of her in ourselves. It's her courage and determination to face the problems, and the fact that she isn't scared of accepting her limitations and doesn't let them make her feel less than others what I think has striked me the most. A huge applause to her.

Back to old habits

                   
                          

- Cap, are you... waiting?
- I told you it was an accidental boob-graspe
- well, you're bouncing from girl to girl, you haven't found that special someome... I wanna help.
- I'm not talking to you 'bout this stuff, okay?
- why not talking about it? we can be friends.
- can we?
- why, because you still have feelings for me?
- and you still have feelings for me.
- I was just curious!
- fine! so let's just be friends, go upstairs and study.
- no.
- why? you trust me, right?
- It's just not...
- ... apropiate? because you don't trust yourself. 
- that's not true!
- you want me to have that "special someone" because then, you won't have a choice.
- I'm... I'm with Max. I mean... he's perfect. he loves me, and I love him... you know? he gave up a Grade School for me. why can't you find someone else who's perfect for you?
- because no other girl in the world compares to you.
- oh, yeah?
- kinda hard to believe, right?!
- look, it's... late, we're both tired... let's just call at...
- a few hours of sleep, is it gonna change anything?
- It's old habits!
- old habits? like having a great time together? knowing each other better than we know ourselves? what does that tell you?
- well I guess that tells me that we can't be friends. 
- fine, then I guess you're right. I do need to move on. I'll see you round, Case.
- I just wanna do what's right!
- we can't be friends. that's what you're saying and I'm agreeing with you.
- then why are we shouting?
- you started the shouting!
- I just want...
- not to waste my time? I get it. well, you're wasting my time now.
- wait... what are we saying?
- you said it all...

Greek, season  2, episode  19.

I love this show so much... too bad it ended last year. I guess I can always keep on re-watching it onlinOH WAIT! don't tell me Megaupload was cancelled because of SOPA. Oh gosh, what will be of me now?

Graduation

First thing you asked us at the beginning of the semester was: "why are we here?". Well, I thought about that. A lot. We all have a purpose. And our purpose right now is to figure out our purpose, that's what college is. So...why college? why CRU? The truth is, I chose CRU because a friend of mine from camp was going here. Then I chose to rush a fraternity and I made new friends, and college has been everything I could have ever imagined it to be. So I kept thinking, why would I ever wanna leave this place? But then I realized that there's so much left to learn, an experience to look forward to. And today I'm graduating, hopefully. I'm hanging out to the real world with the love of my life, who was my purpose. So, today I'm here to graduate, and tomorrow... that's hard to say because I have no idea of where I'll be.

she likes me for me

You and I are done. You made it very clear last semester, so why do you care? 
and if you say it's because we're friends, I swear I will vomit into your ridiculously small purse.

Greek

- So do you think if you would have told her what you felt sooner, you two would be together?

- maybe, maybe not, maybe she just would have said "thank you". My point is, this is not some kind of eccuation, you just can't predict the outcome.

- So, why go trough it if what you know is if it doesn't work you'll be distroyed?

- Because what you get before it ends, no matter how it ends, can rock! The truth is, I wouldn't trade my time with her for anything.

greek

Is he the guy you're willing to give up everything for, or are you just making him that guy because it's easy and everything else seems hard right now?
