6.6

-there is a lot of power in the act of giving
-John Singer is a disappointing character
-But he was pretty okay at the start; I'd like to have a John Singer friend
-I stalked my running buddy today and found him among bookshelves at the Learning Commons. It felt so The Catcher in the Rye
-Jose Rizal had fifteen girls. The list of men I've crushed on outweighs that number.
-the world's largest swimming pool (San Alfonso del Mar) can be found in Chile... and I thought the one in Melbourne was already "biggest" enough :o

I'd like to have a John Singer friend

I'd like to have a "John Singer" friend. John Singer was portrayed as a kind of character who readily helps people out of good will. I guess I could say in a most childish way of saying it that the Mick Kelly-John Singer tandem made me feel bad for myself. I found him a really interesting, over-complicated, annoying character--and these are traits I'd like to see in people. Most of the time, I just really need people to listen. He listens; so many people nowadays don't.
