So, I just went through an interesting experience. One that I’ve been through before, but this time was a little different. The guy from my Chivalry Lives! post has officially told me he “just wants to be friends.” Not gonna lie, I saw it coming – he went to Chicago to visit a “good friend” [...]
Attention: Spoilers ahead! (just in case you haven’t seen it) I watched “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” last night for about the fifth time. It’s a pretty funny flick, but after this viewing, I have determined there’s more to it than just crude humor. The romantic comedy stars Jason Segal and Kristen Bell. Bell’s character, Sarah, dumps [...]
It’s amazing how it seems four years of your life turn into two ceremonies, a party and one piece of paper. Is this what it really means to graduate? No. Graduation means so much more. It means that you endured four years of classes, papers, exams and presentations. It means you survived late nights, early [...]
Today, I will put on my black gown, cap and red tassle. Today, I will walk down the isle of Macky Auditorium when my name is called. Today, I will receive my diploma (or at least a book to put it in). Today, is the culmination of my college career. Today, I graduate. I am [...]
This past weekend I went to Boulder Bridal with one of my best friends. We went there to get her beautiful white wedding dress altered before her wedding in September. This trip to the store got me thinking. She looked beautiful in this dress. Like a princess. As I watched her twirl on the pedestal [...]
So, I went on a date last night. I haven’t been on a real date in quite some time. You know, a real date – like when the guy actually puts some effort into planning some kind of outing for just the two of you. I know, seems outlandish, right?
Who knew that three words, the longest one only consisting of four letters, would hold so much merit. These three words, uttered between couples, family members, friends or really anyone these days. Many people just say “I love you” to get what they want, others (most people I fear) say them without knowing their true meaning. These three words hold an incredible amount of power – but, did you know, these three little words also have many meanings.
We’ve all been there. And we’ve been on both sides of it. Why do people ask questions they really don’t want to know the answer to? And how do you answer questions you don’t necessarily want the other person to know the answer to?
This film cracked me up. The short, witty one-liners were definitely a highlight. However, it was the concept of the film that really got me thinking. The movie is about a man who is getting married and is in search of a best man for his wedding. He goes on several “man-dates” in order to seek out the best fit for the position. He has no friends. According to his brother, he has always been a “girlfriend guy” where he bounces from relationship to relationship and leaves his friends in the dust, thus, leaving him with no friends whatsoever. Don’t get me wrong, I know this is just a movie, but movies can sometimes dictate real life. Let me break it down for you.
