the clinger

hi, my name is kara and i'm a pathological skeptic and a certified "cling-on". i don't know the meaning of that word, but here's the meaning of "cling":

intr.v., clung (klŭng), cling·ing, clings.

1. To hold fast or adhere to something, as by grasping, sticking, embracing, or entwining: clung to the rope to keep from falling; fabrics that cling to the body.
2. To remain close; resist separation: We clung together in the storm.
3. To remain emotionally attached; hold on: clinging to outdated customs.

i'm more of the last. i cling. i hold on to the past. i'm very much emotionally attached to memories, memorable moments, unforgettable events, etc. i don't know why that is, really. i'm naturally-born that way. it's the sentimental side of my personality, i guess. evidence of fact: i'm one of those people who keeps the ticket stubs of movies or concerts i've been to - something to remind me of the awesome time i just had with friends :)

second - i love taking pictures of anything and anyone at a given point in time (i don't care if it's at the office, the car, inside a cab, in the bathroom LOL). i'm a frustrated photographer - always loved the idea of learning photography, never really got around to doing it. anybody rich and generous enough to sponsor me? LOL

i love rewatching movies and tv shows, especially if they have memorable quotes or musical moments. example you ask? just recently, i've been obsessed with rewatching the last few episodes of one tree hill. the biggest reason is because this was the final season that chad michael murray and hilarie burton are appearing as luke and peyton... there's this scene in episode 21 (i think, not sure about the number) wherein they play the song "pictures of you" by the cure and lucas ad peyton kiss. it's a memorable scene and a really sweet moment between the two of them :) i just love replaying "happy" moments... extremely sad moments too, actually. like in supernatural, when dean and sam's dad john died. :( that episode, "in my time of dying", was so heartwrenching - i bawled and bawled.

i still keep pictures of me and my close friends in my phone - sometimes uploading them on the net. and these are like grade school and high school pics, ok? haha! sorry, my friends. love you! :D

lately, i've been asking friends and acquaintances to meet up and just hang out... i guess besides a big "clinger", i also am a big "MISSER"... i miss people a lot.
