VIDEO TWO//

A love story so true it couldn't have been written.
- I know how much she means to you, I know how much you love her. I know she is your heart.
There comes a time when every father lets his little girl go...
- I just want you to know that I love her too and I'm, by no means, trying to steal her away from you.
... to another man who loves her as much as he does.
- I want to spend the rest of my life with her. She is my heart, my friend, my everything.
It's a story about two people who find true love right around the corner...
- She is nothing like every woman I've never met before and everything I've always wanted and more.
... that teaches us everyone out there does have a soul mate...
- I want you to know that I'll protect her, I will honour and respect her and treat her the way she deserves to be treated.
... and that every true love story isn't in the movies.
- I didn't even know what real love is, but she was showing me and teaching me every day. It might be old-fashioned, it might not even be necessary, but it's important to me and I know it's important to your daughter that I do this as well. I'd like to have your blessing, sir. May I have your daughter's hand in marriage?
- Yea, you have my permission for her hand in marriage. I would love to have you as a son-in-law.
Coming this winter from Universal Studios. Making the movies jealous.
- What are you waiting for!
...
- Decisions, decisions! uhm... let me just get a small popcorn.

[Latin song:]
Sors salutis et virtutis michi nunc contraria
Est affectus et defectus semper in angaria.
Hoc in hora sine mora corde pulsum tangite;
Quod per sortem sternit fortem, mecum omnes plangite !!

Virginia Xxxx, since our second day I have always said that we were gonna be making the movies jealous. You mean everything to me and I meant that. Will you give me the honour and will you marry me?
[she nods]
- Bravo!
- I have one more surprise for you.
- Keep filming it, keep filming it!
- Oh, my God.
- He loves you, that man, eh?
- I know

[final song:]
See first of all, I know these so called players wouldn't tell you this
But, Imma be real and say what's on my heart
Let's take this chance to make this love feel relevant
Didn't you know I loved you from the start, yeah

Then I think about, all the years we put in this relationship
Who knew we'd make it this far
Then I think about, where would I be if we were to just fall apart
And I can't stand the thought of losing you

Meet me at the altar in your white dress
We ain't gettin' no younger we might as well do it
Been feelin' you all the while girl I must confess
Girl let's just get married I just want to get married

Meet me at the altar in your white dress
We ain't gettin' no younger we might as well do it
Been feelin' you all the while girl and I must confess
Let's get married

Said I done it all, but frankly girl I'm tired of this emptiness
I wanna come home to you and only you
Cause making...

VIDEO THREE //

It's me again. Second video in the night. I don't do that al- I don't do that that often. Ah, ok, but anyways, I was at a grocery store today getting some groceries, getting some food, err, and I walked, I walked towards the bread section, 'cause I wanted to get some bread, some uh... well, I wanted to get some uh... some bread for... to make some sandwiches. Well, whate... whatever, it doesn't matter.

Anyways, I was walking by the section and there was this snowman set right in th... on the corner, you know, of the aisle, and it had one of those motion detector things on it, once you walk within five feet of it, I guess, it uh... it activates and it started singing: "have a holly jolly Christmas" and it starts wiggling and moving, and uh... I... these... these things are everywhere. You know those little uh... those...those little toys where you press the button or you wave your hand in front of it and it... uh... sings a Christmas song at you and it's either Santa or Snowman or elves or something, right?

I don't know, it... ha ha, everywhere I go now I get reminded of... that it's Christmas, and... uh.. tuh... you know, I mean, it's uh... such a jolly holly holiday, and... uh... it... you know, what is Christmas these days? Or it's all about...it's been so commercialized now. It's all... it's all-ts all... All it is now is a marketing strategy for corporations, for companies to...to pitch their...their product... to... it's... that's all it is to me, anyways.

Christmas isn't Christmas anymore, it's all about selling things and buying things for people and... uh...da... you know what?, I'm not like gonna have that anymore. You know, I'm not gonna empty out my wallet 'cause... not, you know, I don't have any money to be spending on anybody this Christmas season, you know. Money's tight, right?, you know. Uhm... I don't know.

What 'as Christmas become?, you know. It's...it's so stressful, everybody's stressed throughout Christmas, I mean... To me, honestly, it's just like any other day. Spend time with your family and... uh, you know, enjoy the time off, if you can get time off work and... uh... that, you know, that's all it should be. It's so blown way out of... out of proportion now, you know, I don't know. Just my thoughts. Have a good night pe[ople].
