||Your eyes smother all hopelessness..

I'm supposed to be studying for this exam tomorrow and as usual, I don't feel like it. So I thought I'd take a break from surfing Tumblr for Delena images and write for a change. Then again, I often don't have anything to write on when I put my mind to it. Therefore scribbling an abstract. :/

The first thing I notice about anyone I meet is their eyes. And I love blue eyes. And chocolate brown. :P

So anyway, here goes..



I saw you standing at a distance and recognised you from your eyes, the way they crinkle up when you smile. If there's one thing about you I'd never like to change, it would be your eyes. One look and I'm assured that everything is going to be fine, one look and I'm assured I'll always have you by my side. Your eyes give away your secrets, let me know what you hide deep inside. I love the way your eyes seem to melt when you look at me. Your eyes tell me things I shouldn't believe in, things too good to be true. Sometimes, when I avert my gaze, know that I'm just scared, scared that it will all vanish into thin air, scared to believe all that your eyes tell me. Because when I look in your eyes, all my doubts seem to disappear, but so do my senses. I want to be the only one your eyes look for, I hope that's not too much to ask.

'Introvert!' 'She's not much of a people person.' 'He's weird.' 'Annoying.' 'Perfect!' How dare you? How dare you limit an entire person, his whole life, her complete individuality to a single word? How do you describe a person you have barely, superficially known for only a chunk of his lifetime in a few, simple words? Is this why we have eulogies? To make up for all the limiting things we say about people when they're alive. Is it a way to apologise for trying to put down a number on the distance between their being and the horizon? Are we trying to make up for the infinite possibility in them that we carelessly ignore? 'How would you describe your personality?' 'I'm lazy. I prefer pulling up my blanket to turning off the fan 'cause the switch isn't an arm's length away. I put down books when I don't love them anymore because they remind me of how my preferences change....

||Fall, Comfort Shows and Escapism..

As I find myself three seasons into my favourite show again, I involuntarily see the patterns and lack thereof every time I’m inclined to watch it.  Gilmore Girls. If you seek me out on a random day and ask me my favorite show, you may never get the same answer twice. I don’t like being held down to favorites and my mood swings like a chandelier most days. But if you ask me which show I gravitate towards most, this is the one I’ll quote. If you see me talking in weird phrases and references that don’t make sense, this show is the culprit. Having watched it over 7 times in just 3 years, it amazes me how I’ve watched F.R.I.E.N.D.S. way less times even though it might be the show I look to for comfort. If you ask me what I watch when I’m sad, I’d probably say This is Us. Somewhere between the spectrum where one end is F.R.I.E.N.D.S. and the other This is Us, smushed between How I Met Your Mother, Suits, The Office, New Girl, and a number of other shows I like to rewatch, is Gilmore Gi...

||Friends? Sure..

I woke up this morning thinking about writing this post because I couldn’t fathom how one year we were going crazy with friendship bands, everything was simpler, love was friendship, movies were influential and then I wake up today and it’s a pretty normal day. Also I wanted to try out my cute new keyboard which otherwise seems like money not so pragmatically spent. I wanted to reminisce a little bit about all the different kinds of friends I’ve had over the years. The one you rang first on the landline every time you got the tiniest bit of gossip. The one you went running around the school playground with, jumping off corridors as your fancy birthday dress flew up in frilly cuteness. The one you spent hours with coming up with numbers to cryptic-name your multiple crushes/persons of interest. The same one you found sitting on the first bench after assembly, new to school but so old and wise beyond her age (still). The ones you keep thinking you’ve said goodbye to but they keep coming ...
