Thursday, June 17, 2004 How Silly Am I? I have a bottle of perfume. It's in the shape of a tear drop. I was so mesmerized by the simple design, the subtle hint of blue in all it's purity. The shape and color reminding me so much of a single tear. I was attracted. Tears... of happiness? Loneliness? Sadness? Stress? Pressure? So expressive and so explosive with feelings behind each and everyone. Although the scent was only mediocre. I bought it immediately without giving it much thought. I was attracted to it's outside. Maybe there's something more to this. But what good did it's outside do? The smooth curve, resting on top of a wooden block which came with the packaging. So to say, it has a pedestal on my nightstand. One of the last things I see everynight before I go to bed. One of the things I see everyday when I wake up. One of the things I think of everyday. I only knew it's outside. I slowly began to get familiar with it's inside. Every spritz and every encounter making fall a little more in love. The enchanting smell haunting me and triggering something inside of me. How silly of me to judge a book by it's cover. There's so much more to looks. Do I avoid the bottle of perfume or do I get to know it more fearlessly? The coward inside of me wins me over and I shrink away. It has me thinking of it way too much. It's presence lingers in my mind. My fear has me almost wishing I could numb all senses...the sight of it, the smell of it, and touch of it. This little thing, resting on a pedestal within my heart. Ha, to think I could use it to my disposal and to treat it like all the rest. No, not this time, this one is different. The fragrance has grown on me... posted by Sewa at 12:44:00 AM # Wednesday, June 16, 2004 WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are the home of the 2004 NBA CHAMPIONS!!! Then the next cutest thing was Jackie, my 10 yr. old younger brother who I thought wasn't even aware of what was going on, calls me approx. 5 mins after the game is over and says... "Jeh Jeh...the Pistons WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP!...." It brought a big smile to my face...his favorite player is Ben Wallace...so cute. And side note...did anyone else besides my roommates and I notice that Aretha was not really singing????? Ugh. Come on aretha...what's up with that? posted by Sewa at 12:33:00 AM # |
