V for Vendetta

On Sunday, March 19, 2006, it was the St. Patrick's Day parade, and Roman invited me to go watch the parade with him and some of his other friends from speed dating, who he was invited by.

I enjoyed the parade, but it got a bit cold. Roman didn't have earmuffs, so his ears got really red. There was also a part of the parade where he was poking me with a free flag that he got, and then he proceeded to poke the others. Then, I recipricated the poking with my flag... No one else did. After the parade, we went to grab some food to eat. Unfortunately, we went to Resto du village, and Roman thought it was not clean, so we went to Cafe Europeen to have food. I got my greasy spoon breakfast, but a bit more expensive than if I got at Resto du village, but it was still good. After, we went to Kilo (the cafe across the street), and Roman and another person got a piece of strawberry cheesecake. I got an ice-cream cup, it was three scoops of ice-cream. There were three flavours available: Vanilla, strawberry and Chocolate, so I had a Napolitain ice-cream cup.

When we paid our bills for the desserts, we proceeded towards the Paramount theatre downtown. One of us had to go home, so it ended up being three of us, (Roman, me and another person) and we went to see V for Vendetta. It is a good movie, there is much action, but not too much blood. The blood that is present is artistically done. Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving are in it, and I think of of them did a good job with their role. Before the film, I DDRed a bit, and Roman tried the game for three songs!

I do not know if I am reading too much into spending time with Roman. He seems to like me, and we have great conversation. I myself am not sure about the chemistry. I see Roman as someone who is nice, and he has a tough exterior, but on the inside, he's as easily hurt as anyone. But, a friend from speed dating disagrees. I can say fairly that I am glad I spent this time with him. Part of me wants to believe that he's giving me signs to let me know that he's interested in dating me, but part of me is afraid that I'm misinterpreting these signs, that I'm going too fast, and that I'm just thinking wishfully. Love is difficult, and those who have it are indeed lucky.
