Felicity

Having slept the whole day to shake off a mean headache, I'm up and about and trying to kill time. Last night was my first "Chinese" night out. Hehe. I went out with Keith and his friends to Velvet. They're a cool bunch but being the introvert that I am, socializing is just a stress. Thus, I ended up with a constant drink in my hand while enjoying the music. The alcohol explains today's headache.

To pass time, I've been watching Felicity re-runs. My fascination with the hunky inmates has been temporarily replaced with the drama of a college freshie, unraveling her innermost thoughts to a ... well, tape recorder. Hehe.

To some extent, I think I can relate to Felicity. She's this highly emotional person, who tends to analyze everything and find meaning in things that happen. At one point, I, too, had a "Ben" in my life - although not as cute as her Ben and not as white. Haha.

Season 2, Episode 2. Ben was trying to keep the relationship casual. Felicity tried to compromise to this set-up and eventually delivered these killer lines:

" I am an emotional person. I feel things. I need to be able to get upset and talk about it. I can't change that. I dont want to... and you knew that, and you still pursued me... which means you want something from me, you're just not that strong enough to have it... which makes you a coward. The saddest part is, you'll wake up one day and realize what you've missed... and it's gonna be too late".

I could have used those lines then. But I guess I still would have gotten an ending different from Felicity's. She got the guy in the end... I didn't.
