Noted

I took a walk with Leonardo Dicaprio along the ocean.

I asked if he thought he would win an Academy Award this year.

He said he didn't know.

I said I thought he would.

Leonardo remarked about the beauty of the ocean.

I said I didn't notice because I was enamored to be walking with an Academy Award nominee.

Leonardo said that I ought to get over my award's obsession because he's not anymore special than I am.

I got out my notepad and pen and asked him to repeat what he said so I could write it down.
