Esse est percipi

Like someone else said earlier, if you had liked someone, you should have been more involved with them, from your description, it sounds like she barely recognized you.

</p>

<p>Indeed, she barely recognized me, but from what I could discern, but it wasn’t because we hadn’t known each other previously. As I stated, it was as if her slate had been wiped, thereby implying that the slate was filled before (with experiences). With distance the heart grows fonder. Not the case here. With distance the memory grows weaker. I wasn’t the right person, and on top of that, she likely wasn’t willing to commit to anybody either. </p>

<p>

@Kaeroze

The fact is, you have taken your personal life and put it out as much like a diary entry for others to comment and debate over, I can’t tell if you are either brave or seeking attention from others.

</p>

<p>Well, people seem to like what I disclose :). So I keep on writing as to entertain my loyal readers. All of what I write, however, is perfectly factual; this epic about “The Mysterious Girl” isn’t an intricately woven but fictional tale; it is factual, and perhaps that is why my writing resonates with so many - my experiences are genuine :). </p>

<p>About whether I’m writing for attention - well, I addressed that in another post <a href=“%5Burl%5Dhttp://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/1356173-stage.html%5B/url%5D”>size=1</a>.[/size]</p>

@Kaeroze

In fact all of your posts about the, “The Mysterious Girl,” is almost like an epic of unrequited love/like.

</p>

<p>Hahahaha! Nice neologism :). I didn’t know you were a loyal reader of my posts :)! But you’ve managed to so succinctly summarize my posts that I am flattered. I write to be heard (well, read). I can only do half of that. The audience does the rest.</p>

<p>@msteiny1212 - Donne, Tennyson, Keats, the existentialists, Shakespeare, political philosophers (Locke, Rawls, Nozick, etc.), and so on … pretty eclectic. Those are the ones off the top my head. What do you read? </p>

@Siriuss

D’awww.
By the by. Lending a girl a book with your hand writing? Incredibly attractive right there mate. Like out of a chic flick awesome.
Not Twilight romantic but Paper Towns.
You really ought to read some John green. He’s a fantastic author.

</p>

<p>Yes, and especially my handwriting. OK, I don’t often come off as narcissistic as this, but let me just put this out there - I know my handwriting is pretty hawt. </p>

<p>Hey, I’ll be glad to check out John Green :D. Thanks for the recommendation. I have something for teenage novels. The last one I read - Candor - had me crying by the end.</p>

<p>Ahh, so in your situation, absence does not make the heart grow fonder. But now you can pursue other <em>cough, cough obsessions, cough, cough</em> interests. And I understood that this was factual and not fictional piece of work/story. And most people respond because people like knowing about other peoples lives(gossip) generally, makes things interesting. And no, I haven’t been a loyal reader, I think I’ve skimmed like 2 of your posts over, “The Mysterious Girl,” or something like, “What is Life/Morals?” But I am glad you weren’t offended over what I posted, I think. :D</p>

@Kaeroze

But I am glad you werent offended over what I posted, I think.

</p>

<p>I’m never offended by anyone who has taken the time to read and reply :).</p>

<p>Off topic, but how much latin do you know?</p>

[Kaeroze]

<p>But that doesn’t mean, that what someone says isn’t rude or offensive in anyway. Thats like saying, “I never mind if someone cheats off me because that means I’m appreciated for what skills and knowledge I know in said subject and my ability to make quality grades in/on class/tests.”</p>

[IceQube]

<p>Latin … lol </p>

<p>Semper paratus - always ready
Semper fidelius - always loyal
Carpe diem - you only live once
Lorem ipsum … - I haven’t got a clue
Esse est percipi - To exist is to be perceived
Per fretum frebis - by these straits to die</p>

<p>That’s about it :p.</p>

[bllbb6]

<p>Lol good job. A couple of your translations are pretty loose.</p>

<p>Carpe diem means literally seize the day.</p>

[enfieldacademy]

<p>

but if the way you write is the way you talk, then either she’ll think it’s super romantic or laugh and say, “What?”

</p>

<p>haha your post was great. this especially :D.</p>

[Siriuss]

<p>Teenage novels are lovely. Typically I’m more a fantasy kind of girl-- I do enjoy me some dragons and the type of book that tastes good with chocolate. John Green just does such a lovely job capturing emotions and he does a wonderful job with ‘the image you perceive of others’. Paper Towns is one of my favorites. The characters are is very relatable. Margo who wants to run and Q whose going to Duke.
Classics are equally lovely but in a different way. The kind of wonderful that wants you to recognize a different time period rather then a new world. Sometimes (in the especially good ones) they manage both.
/cough/ I read too much. Especially instead of like err making friends /cough/
Lol loyal reader? Can we shorten in to LR and I feel like a tumblr ought to be made :P</p>

[msteiny1212]

<p>@IceQube I’m not nearly as sophisticated in my reading haha. Steinbeck, Hesse, Murakami, Franzen, among others. I think you would really like Demian by Herman Hesse. It’s a quick read, you can read it in one sitting probably.</p>
