INSTEAD OF LISTENIN ABOUT MY DAY...
well, if u really want to kno, my days have been filled w/ mind-numbing reunion w/ the ps2. Whether its taking over real-estate and doin odd jobs for the mob in GTA: Vice City or being swept up in the masterpiece that is Xenogears (my sis' xmas present, w00t!), ull be sure to find me parked in front of that little magical black box. The days of the rpg marathon have been revived... for the time being. I could go on and on about this, but it would be pretty monotonous... So, for a little change of pace, i decided to revive something else. A little, short-lived pasttime of mine during early senior yr of hs. And that is, the sappy rant/story. What it is essentially is a sort of spinoff of some romantic things runnin around in my mind, influenced by various korean dramas and songs ive heard, the sappier the better. Restricted to an AIM profile, it really didnt amount to much of anything. But, since my days have not been so blog-worthy, and gainin inspiration from all those new korean dramas, i decided to give this thing another crack. So... here it goes:
A soft, cool breeze blew in the night sky. I eased onto the wet grass, gazing up at the myriad of lights overhead. It was quite the clear night, a perfect setting indeed.
Certainly an awe-inspiring sight to behold, possibly a little too much.
As beautiful as it was, the countless number of stars up above made me wonder about the significance that I held in this world. The universe was vast, surpassing all human understanding, only fathomable by sheer belief and conjecture. Compared to that immense existence, I was virtually nothing, insignificant at best. Seems any mark I left on this world would be fleeting, inevitably lost and forgotten. Suddenly pointing up to the vast expanse, I chose a star, a star that symbolized what meaning i had in this world. Although it shined with a brilliance all its own, the star was pretty much lost among all those other stars, divided by a deep, dark nothingness that separated everyone. That was me, lost in that dark sea that engulfs everything. Quite sad to think this way, to think that no matter how brilliant ur light is, all u can do is light up patches of nothing. I needed a reason to shine.
All i had to do was gaze beside me to find that reason. Her soft hair gently caressed the creases of my jacket. The sound of her quiet breath put me at a wonderful ease, the beat of her heart close to mine. Delicately touching her hand, I followed along the smooth lines, grasping the fingers with care to rub out the cold of the night breeze. While i had my eyes fixated on her, she continued to gaze at the night sky. Her eyes had a certain sort of glimmer, reflecting all that beauty that was above us. I didnt really have to question anything at all. My reason to shine was gazing at the stars under my arm, one of the most real things ive ever felt. With her at my side, i really felt that i could engulf all that nothingness, and that was enough for me. She was my reason to shine.
"Whats wrong?"
I get out of my daze. "Hrmm? Nothing. You cold? Want my jacket?"
"No. Its ok."
She hugs me a little tighter, and leans her head into my chest. Then, i think to myself, thats all the reason i need...
As always, this is off the top of my head, and not based on actual accounts, although it would be nice. Anyway, hopefully ill get more inspiration to write something better. Maybe an actual story... ehhh. Take care yall. More to come soon.
