I keep having this feeling that everybody here in Montreal is staring at me, and it wasn’t that way before. There are two possible reasons for this. Either I have become hopelessly provincial and am imagining this. Or my spectacular beauty has grown so spectacular that people can’t help staring.
I kind of like my second explanation more.
People do look more directly and intently at each other in Montreal than in Edwardsville.

Maybe, but I think they’re also pissed off by boring conventional “québécoises de souche” women.

québécois de souche=White people born in Québec, at least.
Unless some extraordinary exceptions (like some impossible love in my life 😉 ), I don’t like Québécoises de souche very much.
I’m a fucking anti-Québécois de souche racist! 😉

I look forward to seeing if I get stared at in Montreal if Jaime and I end up moving there. Maybe if I do move there we can walk down the streets together and blind people with our beauty.

Hey maybe I could be staring at you (even If I’m a bit mad at you with what you wrote about London).
I usually try not to get caught looking at women, wich doesn’t really work.
I came to realize that they are pretty much all «out of my league» anyway.

I don’t believe in “leagues”, to be honest. All kinds of people get irresistibly drawn to each other. I’m sure you’ll meet your kind of person one day. I believe in you!

If you got a feeling somebody was watching you today at Atwater Market – that was me. Decided against ambushing you, though, as you were with somebody, most likely your sister.

Yes, that was us!! You should have come up to us because I never notice anything around. Visiting Marche Atwater gave me a very rare for me feeling of envy. It’s a cook’s paradise. Why, why can’t I live next to an amazing place like that???
You people are very fortunate. 🙂 🙂
