I Just Haven't Met You Yet



While I initially intended to just use this space for all my reviews on all topics of my nerdom, this IS a blog so from time to time I'll keep track of my own life. So some of you may asking yourself, "What's up with the title?" well have you heard the song "I Just Haven't Met You Yet" by Micheal Buble (I'm too lazy to look up the accent for the e, but the e in his last name is accented)? If there was an anthem for my life RIGHT NOW, it would definitely be this song.

As I watched the music video I couldn't help but think about my version of this song. It'd probably take place at a Book Store and I'd reach for the same volume of manga as the girl and from there we'd parody Buble's video. We'd probably share the comfy seat, then pan over to people dancing in line and maybe an employee juggling novels. At the end of the video it would cut to me being woken up after dozing off in the store's reading area. As I go to return the books to the shelf, someone taps me on the shoulder and asks if a certain manga is out. I pull it off from the shelf and hand it to the person only to find that it's the girl from my dream that inspired a music video!



As much as I enjoy having no real commitment to anyone and am able to pursue my interests in peace I can't help but to wonder where that "girl" is. See the crazy thing is she can be someone I haven't met yet or someone I already know! Seriously life is crazy like that. I blame anime, manga, and video games sometimes for setting ridiculous standards. I know that a girl won't fall out of the sky and onto my lap, a group of women from space will not crash land in my backyard, and none of my relatives own an all-girls dormitory in need of new management.

It helps to know though, that there's hope for little ol' me. More or less it's probably because I'm still working on myself. When I'm done putting together the puzzle that is my life, She's gonna be the one holding that missing piece. I know she's out there somewhere, I just haven't met her yet.
