few thoughts 112008

1. Last night. Umm...what happened last night? No I'm just kidding. Here we go. 
2. So last night, I boldly hosted a pot luck and it was NERVE WRECKING. I invited this lovely girl I've been liking since I got here and I was literally sweating my butts off. First, I helped out Bob with making rice and to tell you the truth, I've never made rice with pot, I've always made my rice with a rice cooker but it was solid, THANKS MOM. I made a vegan tomato pesto sauce pasta with mixed vegetables. I guess it turned out alright judging from people's reaction. No one threw up so that's good. I was so nervous to see my 'crush' there and I totally forgot to put basil and roasted pine nuts on my pasta. DAMNIT!!!! But it was good. I think. We talked for pretty long time and talked about most random stuff you could possibly imagine. 
3. There's one point Lauren was asking me, 'David, why are you shaking?'. Oh...only if you know. I wasn't shaking, I was try to hold myself from not to be shattered. No, I wasn't shaking, see?
4. Then, I still can't believe that I asked Serrah and Alex if I looked alright. WTF. 
5. Seriously, do I look alright?
6. On the other note, I don't know if I am in the best shape of my life but physically, I feel the best right now. No, I don't have any abs to show or what not but I could go on treadmill for 60-70 minutes running the whole time and not feel like I'm fainting. I'm even lifting little weights now and by mean little, I mean 'little'. Anyway, I feel really good physically right now. 
7. Today was pretty good day...I had a free coffee at the cafe that I go to like every morning. Barista is from Brazil and there was a big soccer match for Brazil last night as they went head to head against Portugal. Brazil won whopping 6-2 and I guess he didn't know about it until I told him. Dude was ecstatic about it and gave me a free cup of coffee. It was awesome and my country, Korea, won as well. We beat Saudi Arabia in their home for the first time in like 18 years...something like that. I take these type of stuff little bit more personal. Yes, I do. But anyway, I like most of my days in here...especially when I go outside and explore the city feet by feet. I actually really like the city to the point where I really daydream about living here one day. I still think America is the best place to live and I'll probably always prefer living in America than living in somewhere else but Rome has done so much for me even for such a short period of time. I like lot of things in here. I really do. I don't mind adjusting either. All my life, I've been adjusting...and it wasn't just for myself either. I'm pretty good at adjusting, trust me. 
8. Oh, BTW...this is from yesterday's my daily horoscope, 'Your daydreaming might reach epic proportions today -- in both duration and content!' I guess, sometimes they are right.
