she sat in the midst of the crowded interchange. book in her hands; earphones in her ears. she was merely waiting for time to pass. she was absorbed in the book she held with her hands; and the music reverberated in her head, over and over again. she could practically recite the lyrics to all the songs. it only goes show how much she loved the particular CD which was playing. people rushed for buses; people alighted from them. there she sat, lost in her own world, oblivious to her surroundings. it took a while before she became conscious of what she was doing. she realised with a start, for the first time, how she was unwittingly not bothered by all that was happening around her.
ah, if only she could be as oblivious to other things in life like she is now.mental note to self: watch
A Very Long Engagement,
Lemony Snicket's, and
Closer (even if i have to do it alone).
