aideThey puzzle me sometimes. I don't know the joy or heartache of being in a relationship but I know friends and watching other people. Some people you think fit so well together and have been a couple for so long that you don't really think of them as not being together. I haven't been keeping in touch with my (few) girlfriends from home as much as a should have so it was a real shock when Heather and Kevin broke up in the summer. They were together since... my second year? So like, nearly 4 years. She didn't tell me why either. He ended up going to do his B.Ed in Montreal so maybe it had something to do with that... And now I've learned that my friend Elise and her boyfriend broke up a few weeks ago and they were together for 5 years. I don't want to pry too much but she sounds fine. She said, better now than never. I suppose Dan Savage is right: "All relationships are doomed to fail, until one doesn't."
On other hand, I skyped with my parents for an hour yesterday and found out that my "cousin" (parent's best friends son who we grew up with sort of) is getting married in June. :O Brian is getting married. He's four months younger than me so he'll be just or just turning 24. Oh my god. I'm a bit pissed cuz he's the second person who I know who's getting/gotten married and I won't be going to this wedding either. And it would be so fun. Even though I wouldn't know anyone, all the guests would be my age and Brian is just such a clown. I had such a good time when we visited them 5 years ago. Fuck, has it really been that long? I need to make a point of stopping through Edmonton on my way back to Brampton or when I go back to Vancouver for school. Maybe I'll be able to get a car and drive back. That would be so boring alone but still fun. Maybe I can talk JC into a road trip if he can get a cheap enough ticket back to Toronto.
None of this really has anything to do with me... but it makes me feel like I'm getting left behind almost. All of these epic relationships are ending and starting and I've yet to be in one. Maybe one of Taka's friends tonight will be single and totally hot for me. I can only hope.
