Here's an idea... I could turn my bad-ass ancestors into a comic series. Not ha-ha comic but graphic novelly comic.

"When you meet someone, you usually don’t meet the real person. You meet their sponsor, or their agent. It takes a while to really know someone," -Timothy Goodman (off 40 Days Of Dating)

I'm post dumping. The line about the graphic novel was meant to be posted ages ago but here they go up today. Anyway, I'm in the midst of finals week. The end of third year. The summer before the year of pain and scrutiny: Fourth. Year.

Blegh.

Regarding the quote... It's something to think about when you first meet someone. Who they really are will probably never come out unless you know them for longer than a year. Hell, even a year doesn't cut it -- times flies so fast nowadays it's almost terrifying.

I wonder who am, what I'm seen as in the eyes of others.

Collecting a book of first impressions helps. But I can't help but think that after long enough, your friends romanticise the first time you'd have met them, or they you. I can honestly say I can't remember how, when or where and through whom I had met some of my closest and dearest.

Yes, I know how awful that sounds.

I think I'll go eat some smoke salmon.
