50 first dates/operation 1

50 first dates
i watched 50 first dates today. interesting movie. kinda related to adam sandler.
someone once told me, after 2 years of dating, the dating itself gets pretty hard to do.
hate to admit it, but i'm slowly feeling it. possibly my own selfish motive wanting to impress over and over.

after the movie i began to think the whole idea of dating may be harder to do every single day. relationship shouldn't be based upon works nor should it be based upon emotions. if a relationship is based upon impression, events, and surprises, how long will a relationship last until one or the other burns out or runs out of ideas? and if its based upon emotions, how long until the feelings we once felt about another changes?

funny how i connect the gospel to dating. but this is me trying to live it in the center of my life.

operation 1
we had our first date at the hair saloon today. she got her hair cut, and i got mine. i always wanted to know how that felt like, and i was very nervous/excited about it. it felt whatevs. korean drama hyped it up way too much.

then we met up with my roommate and few of our friends and had coconut bay.

for those who are reading and not familiar with the name, it's the same exact thing as banana bay, just a few street down. those that still don't know, it's an american thai restaurant geared towards young people. of course it depends on the location. coconut bay has more adult atmosphere to it with their drinks and the setting, while banana bay has more teenage/college feel to it. you can tell by where they are located at. coconut bay located in the outskirt of the town near a popular chinese market and a hotel, while banana bay is located in the center where the major street cross, so its a bit more busy with more entertainment around it. the food is basically the same since it's owned by the same owner.

good thing about coconut bay is that they have lunch hours where you can order a dish from the menu and it comes with bottomless drinks and soup or salad as an appetizer. 5 people, 4 dishes to share, comes out with tax and tip included, 4o-42 dollars, depending on how generous you feel. that's roughly 10 dollars per person.

....
ANYWAY that's what we did and watched a movie back at her house.

tomorrow is christmas and i'm planning on taking soy to LA Live to go watch a movie and take her to el chato. for those who have not heard about it, it's a hidden gem i have been introduced to and dying to share with you all.
