Love and Other Disasters
Quote:[Therapist] I think you are stuck in the pre-relationship moment of infatuation, and you need to be reminded that a real relationship has many, many, many more stages.
[Peter] Stages. I like that.
[Therapist] Relationships are best measured by farting.
[Peter] Excuse me?
[Therapist] The stages of the relationships can be defined by farting.
Stage 1 is the conspiracy of silence.
This is a fantasy period where both parties pretend that they have no bodily waste. This illusion is very quickly shattered by that first shy, "Ooh, did you fart?" followed by the sheepish admission of truth.
This heralds a period of deeper intimacy; a period I'd like to call the "fart honeymoon" where both parties find each other's gas just the cutest thing in the world. Ha ha ha!
But of course, no honeymoon can last forever. And so we reach the critical fork in the fart. Either the fart loses its power to amuse and embarrass, thereby signifying true love or else it begins to annoy and disgust, thereby symbolizing all that is blocked and rancid in the formerly beloved.
Do you see what I'm getting at?
[Peter] *speechless*
[Therapist] Peter? Peter? Earth to Peter!
* Moral of the quote: Relationships sound icky and smell poo.
I think Love and Other Disasters is an okay-ish film to watch. With its feel-good storyline and enough amount of cheesiness, it surely works for me as a companion after dinner, when I just wanted to curl up with a hot cup of coffee in one cold evening.
I'd give it 6 out of 10.

I'm home again!
I’ve lost the mood to write. Ironic, considering the fact that I have plenty of spare time for the last 2 months. But yes, I just haven’t had the appetite since I moved to J town. Don’t ask me why because I don’t know. All I can say is that I'm happier now. And today, I decided to start writing again, to share all my blurted thoughts, to let everyone know that I'm glad I'm still able to find happiness in simple silly little things.
It’s Friday already. I’m much more relaxed today and am looking forward to seeing that one person I hold dear in my heart. Have a great weekend, everyone, You shall see me again next week!posted by D at 12:30 PM

I wanna meet people who inspire those around them with their posture alone but break hearts when they dance, people who are brave and sincere, people who know of other languages and cultures and are willing to share their knowledge with me, old books and photographs, music that I have to fall into....
