Hola! I know, its been ages, but exams and vegging has been taking up quite a bit of time. But nevertheless, thanks for hanging in there.
1. Love Supermassive Black Hole. And City of Delusion. and Soldier's Poem. Muse. Mmmm.
2. Babies and Such
You may have noticed that in movies /real life (its amazing how much life imitates art and vice versa) people romanticize the idea of having a baby together. What they don't consider though , is the fact that "baby" is just a euphemistic term for a little human that screams alot.
But sure. It probably is romantic to have it, this little genetic milkshake that turned out human after all, despite the fact that your mother-in-law called you a monster.
But it doesnt always stay that way.Babies are tiny, they look good in the nook of your arm, much like an expensive Armani handbag.They smell of baby powder and look at you with ignorant, big eyes, and giving you the occasional toothless smile which is more often than not a soundless burp escaping than a real smile.
But babies grow up into toddlers. Toddlers have the lifestagial predisposition to create catastrophe using only crayons, a chocolate bar and the cat. They also take it as a given that you are made entirely out of rubber, and frequently try and contort your finger/earlobe until you are yelping in pain.Toddlers in turn, turn into Primary School Children.
Why don't you ever hear people in movies saying "I want a Primary School Child with you" ?Ditto for High School Children.
Despite every single one of them going through what they perceive to be agony and emotional turmoil(but in reality could be a bad batch of curry and a bout of the zits) they share a few common traits.
In early puberty a sudden creative flair for poetry arises. The fact that the poetry is indigestable by anyone who is not in a deep depression is very much beside the point. Words like "empty" , "dark" and "lonely" make frequent appearances. All that we can surmise from this is that they are describing their own cranial cavity.
Secondly, they inexplicably turn colourblind and develop a fashion sense that can only be sufficiently described as "anything your mother would object against". This is often the goal.
We can only hope that the next bout of evolution in the homo sapiens gets rid of the puberty life stage in its totality.
Much love
Me :D
