here are some thoughts on life and movies

sometimes

it’s useful to imagine that your life

is a hollywood movie

then it’s OK

if you break up with your boyfriend

because in movies

the audience knows

there’s always a better one coming

and if it’s raining

and you’re walking down the street

and get splashed by a car going through a puddle

you can pretend you’re

carrie bradshaw in new york city

and then it’s quite Romantic and Glamorous

instead of just Wet and Annoying

and if you meet someone for the first time

and you’re a bit nervous and say some silly things

it helps to imagine you’re in a movie

where being a bit Awkward and Socially Inept

is usually seen as Quirky and Interesting.
