Flava of Loooove
Posted by Keiri on February 2nd, 2006 filed in UncategorizedI watched that show and I could not believe how these women could “turn it on” and convince Flav they loved him. And here’s the thing: They were DAMN GOOD AT IT. The one going by the nickname “New York” was out to dinner with him and she just put on the waterworks in just the right amount, made out for 8 1/2 minutes just on one kiss, pulled the “i’m falling for you.. no, I’m in love..” wowsers. That’s skill.
Me, I’m a sucker. I DO fall in love. I can’t lie to people about my feelings. If I don’t feel it, I can’t lie and say I do. And vice versa. Jarrod knew from day 1, I’m pretty sure, he had me in his pocket. My eyes tell the whole story.
Men. You guys confuse me. I look at Wes and I think he’s got a big fat ball of scared, just like me. I relate to that. But I don’t relate to how he unleashes it.
Then there’s Andy, who deep down I think has a ball of stubborn complacency with some things, and directed growth in other directions. Why is he complacent with some areas of his life, but so able to exert change in others?
Jarrod. Perhaps he’s the biggest mystery of all. He’s got this pillar inside him that just doesn’t bend or take damage. His rock from which he draws.. no, he doesn’t even need to draw from it, he’s just strong. Around it swirls his stress, dissatisfaction.. but there’s also creativity and curiosity in there too.

I think that you are right about me. There are some things that I don’t change and some things that I do change and I am stubborn about it. Why? Either I am already happy with the areas of my life that I’m not changing, I can’t change them yet (i.e. I can’t get the job I want right now because I have to finish school first), or they are simply things that I don’t have the power to change.
I am stubborn about some things but I can change my mind. School, for example, is something that I was dead set against. However I am back in school now, doing well, and happy that I am going. Would I have been happy about it if I had tried three years earlier? Maybe, maybe not. It’s hard to tell; things were different back then.
I am slow to change my mind. I am cautious. But I listen to what people say, I think about it, I ask, and I argue. When I do change my mind, it’s because I am as sure about it as I think that I can realistically be.
