LOVE
i will blog this random thought for my friend kev. the other day, i told him how couples in love make me feel. or rather, seeing couples in love.
seeing couples in love is inspiring. it gives one hope like, "you know...maybe there is love out there for me. they're ugly...even they can find their match." it's odd...i guess there is an odd puzzle out there looking for it's missing piece....moi.
however, seeing couples all lovey makes me think, "awwwwwww....how cute......" AND "fuck you guys" at the same time. my my my....this funky island has sure left me feeling quite jaded. it seriously sucks being an asian american female in japan. thereby, classifying me in the most undesirable category right above incest.
perhaps this bitterness is what led me to scare away some would-be-friends. besides grace's former roommate of all four years at cal, eva, i do not receive anymore random comments from people i don't know. in fact, some of my own friends from back home havn't left comments in days. to them, i snatch away your gold stars and put down my hand that would've given you a rewarding high five.
this weekend, i'll be going on a trip with the staff from my office. i don't know where. all i know is that i'm going, and i'm not driving. should be interesting where i end up. i'll let you know. all i know is that i can't go to the onsen with the ladies cuz they'll think i'm a BIG BAD GANGSTA BITCH....and bring shame upon my family at the same time. oh, well...i guess i'll run around naked in my room.

you know me but this is still random. Don't worry, white girls in Japan are just as unappealing as Japanese American girls. I dated a Japanese boy for 6 months. My advice to you, Don't bother, they're not worth it. That is unless you like being ignored, deprived of any physical contact and always coming second to work and pachinko.
Cheers
Joe
i CANNOT stand lovey-dovey couples. they make me want to hurl. especially those lovey-dovey couples who are always attached at the hip and refer to themselves as "we". "i" completely falls out of their vocabulary. i call them "smother lovers". you should ask grace how much i despise smother lovers.
hope you have nice weekend! wherever you end up!
roses are red
violets are blue
i think that all smother lovers
smell distinctly of poo
Shan its Joe, do you ever get sick of kicking it with people from your own work? When does it get to be too much?
Who is this mysterious "other Joe?" I am intrigued.
Whoever it is has a good name I must say.
female joe, thanks for the comment! i guess this opens the door for comments from me. big fan of your blog, btw. great writing! i hope that didn't come off as creepy as it sounds.
grace, i love your poem! and grace and eva...down with smother lovers!
male joe, yes...i have a female friend named joe.
