mi amiga/o

the sweet memories of youth
just fade
(like the etched marks on our desks)
(or the blood on skirts soiled)
until the single thing you're holding onto
is but a figment of your imagination

tides rise, times move forward
to wallow is to swallow
the fact that you have been defeated.

i'm glad to have met you though.

Self-talk

1. If you want something, then work your ass off to get it.

2. You don't have to get everything you want.

3. What makes you happy? What leaves you empty? If what you want falls under the latter then forget about it.

Love Me If You Dare

French movies are just so much fun! 

Jeux d'enfants joins the ranks of Amelie, Titanic and cinematic wonders that turned my heart into a soggy mess

This movie resonated with me on many levels.

(and well yeah, made me tear up a bit)

Such a cute boy!

There's a love like this, a love that overcomes the boundaries of time and all the evils of real life.

And nope, it's not just in the movies!

Friday night: signs and symbols

what is it about certain things that cause me to shut off my critical judgment and carry on, despite a placard devoid of signs?

what is it about my core that chooses to take certain things for granted, no matter how aplenty the peace and calm i've derived from them?

*tomorrow's the first stat lec exam. i feel SO unprepared.

are we ever prepared in anything in life?

now let not my laziness be rationalized by a pointless philosophical discussion about life.

Watching Almost Famous right now.

I hate how I'm willing to set aside just about anything for you.
