Yesterday I went to Garson's and Shirley's 4th of July BarBeeCUe. Me and Alex were in charge of bringing the drinks. I don't think anybody was left thirsty, so I think we did our job (Norm said we didn't buy enough, I think we showed him). I mostly spent the time watching movies. First we saw Gone In 60 Seconds. It was a lot better than I thought it'd be, especially since I'm not a Nicholas Cage fan or a big car guy (I'm not your typical guy I guess). It reminded me a lot of Ocean's Eleven, which was also a great movie! Then we saw About A Boy. I have the DVD at home but haven't gotten a chance to watch it, so I just decided to watch it there. It was also a very good movie! And man, that Rachel Weisz, man oh man. And finally we saw How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. That was the best movie of the day! I'm telling you, that Kate Hudson, holy smokes. Too bad she's married and knocked up, uh, I mean pregnant. She's only 22 or 23, something kinda young like that. Geez, if Kate Hudson tried to get rid of me in 10 days, she couldn't. I'd be all over her like white on rice. I'm gonna go find some pictures of her for my desktop.

The thing about these types of movies is they make you think about love stuff. It always makes me wonder if I'll ever go through that love stuff. Hollywood makes things too fake, but I wonder if that would ever happen to me. But the cool thing is you don't need to find THE Kate Hudson to fall in love, you just need to find Your Kate Hudson to make you happen (although the real Kate Hudson would be just fine with me). And people look for different things, and see beauty in different ways, and I guess that gives me hope. I just wonder what it feel like to be in love. I've really never had a girlfriend, so I wouldn't know the first thing about what to do those first few weeks, if it even lasted that long. But I'm learning (through the magic of movies and friends), and maybe if I ever get that chance, I'll have enough knowhow so I won't blow it.

One day at mathcamp we noticed a worker holding a rose. She said she was holding it for her guy friend, who planned to give it to his girlfriend. It was their one month anniversary. And then me and some girls like Jenny Leung and Fae started talking about anniversaries. I've never even gotten to a one month anniversary, so I was asking them what is the appropriate time to celebrate a relationship. I heard suggestions such as one month, third month, sixth month, ninth month, and year. Then after the year you celebrate ever six months. But, I just said I'd only celebrate by year. Am I wrong? What is the point in saying "Happy 9th month honey! Here's some diamonds." If you celebrate every third or sixth month, it just seems to lose it's specialness. I think every sixth month could be okay, but nothing less than that. Celebrating one month is like saying "Wow, we made it through this one, let's go for another month." I admit, those math camp guys were in high school, and relationships in high school only last a few months. But here's my warning for all you future Mrs Lem candidates, you won't be getting anything until our sixth month at least, if you make it that far!!! Any suggestions about when to celebrate anniversaries? I'd like to hear from both guys and girls.

That is all for now. Goodbye.
