Love lunches where the food is okay but the company is to die for. While I was brisk-walking/pseudo running to Astons to beat the queue and chope a seat I walked past this couple who was creating a ruckus outside one of the restaurants. The couple was with another lady and I heard the wife shout 'If you continue to work with her our marriage is over. OVER.' in these shrilling tones that caused almost about everyone to stop and stare.
This made me think of love, life and relationships and how everyone says university is the time to meet more people, widen your net, look out for that special one. How can you decide if someone is the one if you've never met more than one? I've been observing the customers at Jones as well, especially the couples with young kids, couples who are old and white-haired, couples who are still in that honeymoon phase. What if it all wears away and you realise that there's no fairytale ending?
On another note, started reading Room by Emma Donoghue (: I like the different perspective presented in the book, and how the early years of one's life are the most crucial ones.
“some people feel like they don't deserve love. they walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past.”
“This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until its done. It's that easy, and that hard.”
