I enjoyed what you wrote about NY. There are definitely a lot of funny characters in NY, and you met quite a few of them. I think that it's great that you approach people that way, so many people lead lives that you could never imagine, and some that you would never want to. At the same time, meeting these people could also lead you to new projects, new ideas, etc . . . my only complaint is this, and I have to comment because it drives me crazy when people do this, though I'm sure that I've done it before as well. I guess it's when you mention the bartender, and her living off of her parents, and how there's nothing to her. Do you think that in all fairness you can know what she's all about when you've spend such a short amount of time talking to her? I don't think it's fair to make a decision like that. Are you assuming that is as in depth as she gets? I mean, the girl just met you, why should she open up to you, a stranger? Not everyone is going to respond to your questions the way you like, nor is everyone going to be interested in what you're interested in, it doesn't mean that they have "nothing to them". Don't mean to rant and rave, but I know how shy I can be when talking to people that I don't know very well, and you probably would have known much less about me if we hadn't been e-mailing each other (Obviously, writing does not present the same dilemma when I'm writing to you). Anyways, I think we're all guilty of prejudging, I'm not trying to attack you , but I get a little resentful ( ok, A LOT) because I feel that people do that to me often enough, and I feel like you passed unfair judgement on this girl, who would probably be upset that you thought that of her. Just something to think about . . . Sian Reply by Sian Oaten on September 23, 2003. --> Reply by TheMaker on September 24, 2003. |
