I'm convinced.
If Al Green was my church Reverend and Johnny Cash was the praise leader who sang all the hymms, I would go to church every damn day. I would gladly empty my pockets for the building fund, missionary fund, food drive fund, the pastor needs new shoes fund, the fund for funds or whatever other fund that the church was collecting money for. I just imagine Al Green singing the words of the Lord during his whole service. Actually, I wish that James Brown (RIP) was also a Reverend at this church, so he could make any word of the Lord impactful after every 2 or three sentences by saying 'HA!'. (For those of you who listen to James Brown and know what I'm talking about, kudos to you).
So.
I know I don't have a massive following on this blog, but I'm bored, so I shall propose a novel idea. Well, it's not novel, nor is it about a novel, and really, it wasn't even my idea, but shutup and participate anyway. Sorry, you don't have to shutup. I was just being demeaning. (sidenote on the word 'Demeaning'. Shouldn't that word mean 'to un-mean'? I don't understand why that word means degrading. The mysteries of the English language. Sounds like a PBS Documentary).
Ask me questions. Curious about anything? My stance on affirmative action? The way I dress in the morning? What my favorite smell is? Come on. Get to know me. I'm fun. I think.
Give me entry ideas. I know it's weird, but I'm addicted to blogs and blogging. I have a million things I want to blog about, but when the time comes, I forget them ALL. ALL. I don't want to look like a loser and write down these ideas and save them for later. That's just lame. Besides, I think I'm a comment whore. I like to check my Gmail, especially when it tells me that I have a new comment on this blog or on facebook or something. WHY LORD WHY?! WHY MAKE ME A COMMENT WHORE?!?!
Yeah, so...If there are any readers who don't comment but read this mess, please, give me something to blog about.
Until next time,
Jongphil.

hm. ideas...questions...i'm blanking right now, sorry. but i promise i'll think about them.
oh. i am SO a comment-whore too. jess and i were talking about this yesterday, but---sometimes it seems that my mood for hours relies on one small thing somebody says that makes me feel good about myself. Yes. I find it odd, so try to curb my enthusiasm (haha) for such comments, but it ends up not working so well. hm. Maybe J.J. Rousseau was right. Once people grouped together in societies was pretty much the downfall of people, because we constantly looked at each other and compared. We need to go back to the days when we roam the forests individually, meeting occasionally to team up and get survive storms together, get food together, or sleep together. Besides that...hmmmm....
okay sorry for the huge long babble.
i think the comment-whoring has to do with our need for affirmation from others. that being said, i guess that would tag me as being a fellow cw (the words "conventional wisdom" just popped in my head), even though i declare loudly that i couldn't care less.
(actually, i realize that i give comments a lot more than i receive. comment-pimping?! haha).
your ideal church reminded me of tonight's scrubs episode =) btw, you have great posts, i love reading them.
comment pimping! HAHAHA. Wendy, you're fabulous.
remember animaniacs? i realized not too long ago that whenever wakko said "faBOO" he meant "fabulous". hope your quarter is going well. spring is great =)
Do you think we are comment whores, or compliment whores?
I think I'm a comment whore, as in, I just like getting comments about anything (or rather, I just like getting emails that aren't spam) but from what you said Jee, it sounds like you're a compliment whore. hahaha. Which is fine, by the way. I think (sexist but true comment ahead) that women need compliments to survive. As Chris Rock said, 'Women need 3 things to live. Food, water, compliments.'
Wendy, you know I would be your comment pimp, but I almost always forget to check LJ now. So, in order to return the favor, I shall check LJ often. YOU KNOW YOU LOVE COMMENTS GURL. YOU KNOW. hahaha.
But I have two loyal readers and commenters. I'm happy. It's good to know that there are two individuals out there who check my blog even though I go on and on about random things. Admit it. hahah.
I love your random talk. That's why I keep coming back and reading.
And, yeah, maybe I'm a comment + compliment whore. Either way, I always feel a prick of gladness when I know someone's noticing I'm here and alive. Haha. That was so an understatement.
Anyway. Right now I'm wondering what the heck I could add to to your new post, about Koreanness. I laughed out loud so much. I would show it to my parents and sister except for the sex-drive ones, which they wouldn't find very appetizing (but I do). hahahahahahhaha........
"appetizing" =P jee won you have the best diction.
i think you are a whore. i think im turning into one. maybe.
write about . . .
who you want to be. and then who you used to want to be.
something you're passionate about.
someone you're passionate about.
try to write down every thought that crosses your mind for the next . . . span of time it takes to write a paragraph.
what you love about the world.
take one of your long-standing beliefs, the more basic the better, and question it. for the heck of it. play devil's advocate with yourself.
write a dialogue between "jason, rational voice inside head" and "jason, irrational voice inside head."
oh right, and what would you change about yourself, if you could?
