    Pure Mood
    It was a Delta Airlines Boeing 757. My friends and I were on our way to Las Vegas for a hell of a time. We were all quite scattered and I had a window seat away from the gang. You know the constant glance-and-hope as you wait for whomever is going to sit next to you? Sometimes it's like "Yeah? Yeaaah?? Awweeeeeee" then you have to sit next to someone you don't want to.
    I saw this girl walking down the row and I was thought "'C'mon. C'mon. C'mon. C'mon, sit next to me sit next to meeeee!"
    SHE DID! "YES!!" I loudly professed inside my mind. Then thought "Shit now what I do?? I Have no game whatsoever!" I still have no game. :p
    This girl was tall. She may have been a volleyball player for whatever college she was returning to. I'm assuming it was UNLV. Anyway. Her legs were just too dang long for the economy seating situation. My short legs had AMPLE room. Oh, I am always 100 percent comfortable on any plane. It's one of the perks of being little guy, yo!
    Anyway, the flight went on and she put on her headphones. To me, that's a signal that she did not want to be bothered. So I did the same, you know? I thought to myself that nah, just be cool and enjoy the flight.
    Time went on and the cabin lights went low. I decided to whisper into this woman's ear with "hey....wanna go to the bathroom and you know...mile high club?"
    Haha! I didn't do that. I just lied. :p This girl was trying to sleep in the most uncomfortable manner. She tried so hard to get into a good position until I finally knudged her shoulder. She took out an earbud, smiled and said "Hi". I told her she can put her legs into my foot area because there's LOTS of room haha! She IMMEDIATELY did so. No hesitation. "oh my god thank you!!!" Floof
    Boys, I made a big mistake because now, I couldn't do shit. I was all kind of stuck now. Her spider-ass legs consumed all my space. It was okay, though. I was the hero! I shall be rewarded and the village shall be saved!
    I watched her continue to shuffle to find a good position to sleep in. If she stretched out length-wise, she would be all into the fat of the huge lady next to her. if she stayed at the center, she had to kind of hold herself up with her core. The absolute worst/best case scenario then happened. She looked at me and asked if she can grab on to my arm.
    "Uhhhhhh yyeaaah????" I squeakily muttered.
    She put her arm around mine, pulled herself close and rested her face on my damned shoulder. "thanks!" This girl was not afraid of anything, it seemed.
    I thought that surely this was not actually happening. I froze. I didn't know what to do. I was totally uncomfortable because her mile-long legs kinda locked me into place but I felt like the king of world because of what just happened. It was like being employee of the month. I win...AND lose. The girl fell asleep. I had to pee. I had a cramp. The village wasn't saved.
    We landed. We smiled at each other, had some extremely small talk and disembarked the plane. I was behind her when we reached the gate. Some friends who were seated further up the aircraft were waiting for her. My friends were as well. Each group went different directions.
    I looked back and at just about the same time, so did she. I smiled. She smiled and made a heart with her hands then I waved. That was it. We both turned into the pages of our separate lives and walked away. I never got her name or anything. It was just one of those little, meaningful moments that you remember forever. It was a footnote with a pure mood.
    I wonder if she remembers me? Hmm.

    This has got to be the coolest looking G-Shock I’ve ever seen. It reminds me of the Delorean. I just bought it using your link. I’ve been looking for a contemporary watch like this for a while!

  • @stationplaza4631
    @stationplaza4631 Před 2 lety +7

    Yes the dramatic effect is in the more subdued lighing. Great looking G-Shock!

    • @minitwatch
      @minitwatch  Před 2 lety +1

      Woohoo! Thank you! I think it also depends on the watch! I'm going to think more about that in the future! Cheers!

    Hey Kurt. You are my original favorite channel to watch when I was just getting into the hobby. Still enjoy watching your videos.
    I like the look of the G shocks and have tried several but I feel they look terrible on my wrist so I don’t think I will ever own one.

    For a g shock that dial is not busy. It's kinda got a "light chronograph" look going.

  • @jacknjill3000
    @jacknjill3000 Před rokem +2

    Just found out about this watch like 3 days ago and 2 days ago I bought one from eBay for a great price. Yeah, I didn’t know anything about this watch or the original resin version until a few days ago.
    But at first I wasn’t sure if it was too shiny and jog fir me and also considered the smaller version with the smoother bezel, positive digital screen and smaller size for my small wrist. I may still get the smaller one bc it looks more dressy and cleaner.
    Oh and yesterday I found out there was a full metal and solar version going for $500. to $6.00. That’s kind of a little more than I want to pay for a G Shock.

    I wish there was loom on all the hours/minutes lines and a much better light as well as a sapphire crystal. That would make me buy.

    @wuchi3668 Před měsícem

    What is the difference between the GM2100(199€) and the GA2100(99€)? Is it only the material? 100€ more for a bit of metal?

    What up Curt! The face of the watch is just a little crowded with the separate day/date dial, but yeah that band doesn't do it any justice at all. I'm trying to think of what band would be perfect for it, but can't put my finger on one.
    The girl on the plane...I learned early that it's always the ones where you don't try and put your best swing at, are the ones that stick out in your mind because they leave you with a million what ifs. The million what ifs are way worse than getting blown out and feeling like a temporary fool. I can't remember what the girls that rolled their eyes at me or shrugged me off look like. I do remember that blonde at college in her floral sundress with wedge sandals who brushed her hair back behind her ears that had cute little pearl stud earrings on wave and smile at me as she sat a few seats down me in the student center. I remember that day in 1999 picture perfect and being too flabbergasted to even say anything to her back then haunts me way more than any brush off, a million times more.

    Anyways hope all is good, and can't wait for adventure time!

      @minitwatch  Před 2 lety +2

      True statements. I can remember some of the failed attempts as they were hilarious but yeah, for the most part they are forgettable. And wow man, that woman is totally burned into your soul. Perhaps someday you two shall cross paths again. It has happened to me :)
      Have a good one bro!

    I stopped watching the video at 1:05 and started to read your romance at 30,000 ft. I'm not a literaly cric but I think it's a wery well written-story full of melancholic emotions. Congratulations on being able to transcribe such personal feelings 👍

    Check the lume...thanks for the vid. G-shock turns out so much product. I have one, the traditional square tough solar. The one you have there, very shiny.🌞

      Thanks Tobias. I wrote it too fast. Too many mistakes that I just fixed!

  • @commandZee
    @commandZee Před 2 lety +11

    As an object it looks super cool. But as a watch, as hard as I've tried, I find analog G-Shocks frustratingly illegible. That said, the head does look cool, if the lugs were 20mm or 22mm it would probably look amazing on shark mesh.

    • @Liamthewaldo
      @Liamthewaldo Před 2 lety +1

      Can just use the light

    • @minitwatch
      @minitwatch  Před 2 lety +2

      Spot on. I have another analog G-Shock and it's impossible to read. I'm going to mention that in the video for that one! Still, I love this gshock for what it is! Thanks for the comment!

    • @shiva.19
      @shiva.19 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Exactly. The time markers are of the colour as the dial which makes it difficult to read.

    Not a fan of the strap but like the rest of it. The girl on the plane probably tells people about that time she met her match and he blew it by not giving her his info!

    • @minitwatch
      @minitwatch  Před 2 lety +1

      Yeah the strap has to go! And right? I wonder...
