“I love staring out the window. New York, it’s like a candy jar - watching people is so phenomenal. Looking at [the couple at the next table] right now, you can tell so much by what they order or their body language. I just find that really fun. It’s kind of like being a detective a little bit.”
Sometimes it’s the very people who no one imagines anything of who do the things no one can imagine.
The Imitation Game (2014), dir. Morten Tyldum

Same problem, different approach 📝
Person A: I have a plan.
Person B: Does it involve us not getting into trouble?
Person A: I said I had a plan, not a miracle.
Today was my last day of high school. Like ever. I actually got caught up with all of the work and my grades are finalized.
Huh.
It’s now “I went to high school…” rather than “I go to high school”…
Huh.
When? How? Whaattttttttttt?
boys as music
serenade: always knows what to say. likes to read. curly hair. an aversion to mushrooms. “do no harm, but take no shit.”
harmony: soft smiles that crinkle at the corners of their eyes. dimples. holds hands with fingers interlaced. carries cough drops. never hesitant to show affection.
concerto: walks around with a guitar. charismatic in the most earnest way possible. cuffed jeans. doesn’t use a pencil pouch.
waltz: leaders. always get the final say. “fake it till you make it.” knit sweaters, scuffed converse, and black pens. hates black coffee. walks into class forty minutes late and convinces the teacher they were on time.
staccato: raised eyebrows and sharp wits. terrified of how deeply they feel. long sleeve shirts and dark smudges beneath their eyes. ink stained hands and cardigans.
crescendo: willing to work for what they want. intense personality. wears glasses and fun socks. generally closed off but completely trusting of the people they open up to.
