不得不爱 – Got to Love You

Few people asked me these days...

“Did you break-up with Mouse?”

Maybe there’s misunderstanding arises when they read my last post. I said that I’m tired with my relationship with Mouse and dunno where this relationship will go. But no, I’m still with Mouse. Weird huh? Yea, he didn’t wantto break up with me, and so did I.

For me it’s really weird. Time after time, I develop this ‘tolerance’ toward Mouse. I learned to compromise our differences. He also tries to understand my feelings. I know that our relationship is not just about physical. I know that eventually we still have to break up, so I just don’t want to waste our time and enjoy this relationship, even without sexual intimacy. Ed (remember my bestfriend?) just told me that it is almost impossible and that makes us no different than just friends. But then I think again, it’s no use to ‘force’ him to have sex with me. Sex is just a way to express love, isn’t it? (See how melancholic and old-fashioned I am?) So I think it’s really all right for me if he just couldn’t express his love that way. I still love him, though.

I know it’s kinda hard for us since we’re both kind of sex-driven guy (‘nafsu besar’ if I may say :-p) but what the purpose in doingit if we don’t enjoy it…

Enough about me and my relationship...

Recently there’s nothing special to blog about. I just got these two books, entitled The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and Flowers for Algernon (Charlie, the Genius Imbecile) by Daniel Keyes. The one that attracted me the most is Flowers for Algernon… The plot revolves around an imbecile guy named Charlie Gordon. He was born with IQ just 68! Geez, how poor he is. And because he is mentally dull, he was selected by a group of scientists as ‘guinea pig’ for their project in purpose to raise his intelligence. This procedure has been successfully applied on a white mouse named Algernon. As time goes by, his aptitude has developed so rapidly and surpasses the ability of those scientists. And that experiment seems to be a super-important scientific innovation. But suddenly Algernon’s ability decrease, as rapid as how itincreased back then. Is Charlie gonna be like Algernon?

Well, I like this book because I think Keyes completely good in describing Charlie’s development from time to time. From an imbecile guy which almost doesn’t have emotional feeling into a mature guy who posses a complex thought. No wonder that this book received a Hugo and Nebula Award (dunno what kind of awards they are, though, hehe) and sold more that 5 million copies worldwide. Read it!

Argh…shit, just received a phone call from computer center that my computer’s mainboard need to be replaced. It’s EXPENSIVE……….!!!

Now I have to go there…



We love only what we do not completely possess, and fear to lose.
