I do!
I just saw Steve Carrell and Tina Fey's movie Date Night and was very happy my sister rented it from iTunes. It's a short movie filled with the lead stars' signature comedic genius. James Franco and Mark Wahlberg's short appearances also added the eye candy factor to it. =)
In the movie, the couple has a habit of watching people- strangers- placing their age and analyzing their dynamics. They would also make up a dialogue for the people they're spotting. Much to my surprise, this is actually a movie adaptation of what I do in real life. But that is not to take credit for the inspiration of the movie (haha).
I do love watching people and making something out of how they roll their eyes, scratch their forehead, unconsciously flash a smile and the other interesting things they say when their mouths aren't open. I suppose Filipinos are people whose heads are always busy so in that sense we're always "talking". Try looking out the window of McDonald's and you'll see passersby telling you their story without having to make contact with you. Really, it's a fun little social experiment. =)
The next 2 entries I will post are different, however as they are stories of people I got to know at deeper, varying levels. They are reposts of stuff I've written in my good old Multiply site with the first one dating way back in '06! I think it's an opportune time to revisit them since this new blog is all about telling stories of whoever. =) Enjoy and see if you have unwittingly landed on this blog. =)
