i'm sorry for putting you on the spot, but i'm just sharing the spotlight.

(wrote this in exactly three minutes, i should really go to bed, or do my biochem lab record, but hey, if i don't procrastinate, who else will? this is for all you people who complained that i wasn't posting. my apologies. this isn't much but it's a tad longer than the last three posts put together (learn to love line breaks!) so yeah. off to bed, cheerio!)

just because

you're not in my pictures yet

does not mean 

you're not part of my movie

the movie of my life, you know

you know you have a starring role

and we need it to fade out on the slow embrace at the end

all good movies end with that kind of stuff

the movies that don't end depressingly, that is

hey, we're not a depressing movie

not the kind you watch and then 

you want to blow up a building or drink yourself to sleep

because you're too frustrated and/or too sad with the state of the world

no 

we're that kind of movie

that'll make people give loose change to hobos on the street

that'll make people sing in the rain

that'll make people name sleds after flowers, say it before they die

that'll make people happy

happiness is what

makes the world go round.

aside from all that angular momentum, but we're not talking about that right now.

  1. I always wanted to be in a chick flick,I wouldn't mind being the sidekick, they're the ones who get to be happy throughout, without any of the hiccups.

  3. Spriha, besides, the sidekicks almost always land the hot guy's hot best friend. Depending on casting, you may just get lucky. And depending on script, YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY HAVE A LIFE OUTSIDE OF YOUR FRIENDSHIP WITH THE LEAD. Man, chick flicks are so one-dimensional sometimes.
    Shalmi, Aww, gee, it's all for yoouuuu.
    Anoorag, you could drink to happy movies. Make a drinking game out of smiles and you're all set. :D

  4. The ones with two best friends in the lead never work out,none of them end up happy,plus they don't have enough screen time to show the awesomeness that the best friend's life will be.The hot guy's best friend is usually way awesomer any way and has less issues, so I'm happy.
