Darling Is A Lovely Word

Ideas,

There is this idea I have, that everyone is tied to someone else. If you are happy, someone, somewhere, is miserable. It’s the natural balance of the universe. I don’t know if I believe this idea but, whenever I’m feeling good and I see someone sad, I wonder if I’m tied to them. It comforts me when I’m depressed, knowing that because of this, someone else is feeling positively elated.

Maybe I just think in odd ways.

In the end, it matters very little whether this idea is the truth or not. It doesn’t better lives, it merely is something to occupy my thoughts, to keep me interested in the world. It’s interesting, how the world, (and, in particular, humans), are so filled with enchanting quirks. I love watching social interactions from a detached point. You can see so much from pure body language. Humans just intrigue me so much.

Melanie - extrovert, genius and pizza-enthusiast.

And liar, apparently.

Honestly, I’m neither of those things, virtually the opposite, actually (except for the ‘pizza-enthusiast’ one). To describe me, one may chose the words awkward, turtle-like or cat-like (but not in a graceful or stealthy way).

Or maybe the crossing into adolescence brings on these characteristics naturally and I am the only one who would consider describing myself in such a way whilst others would think it is already obvious and requires no repetition or elaboration.

I over-think things.

I possess a rainbow of different personalities. Hopefully, this will allow me to contribute to this blog in an interesting or entertaining way. I suppose the bulk of what I’ll post, however, will just be random outbursts of verbal diarrhea.

I’m something of a perfectionist and it affects me incredibly. For example, writing up to here has taken me a fair amount of time already. And by a ‘fair amount of time’, I mean 20 minutes or so. Anyway.

I’m the other half of this blog, also Australian. I like film and theatre, music, shiny things and things that make you feel. I also enjoy the feeling of being frightened (triggered by horror movies and thrill rides as I have never felt true terror). I enjoy pretending to be another person in public as no one really knows the difference. I find great joy in being someone else.

Melanie.

Good afternoon

Hello, I’m Christina. I’m half of this blog. I’m Australian. I like watching stuff burn, loud music and tv. I’ve been learning to scream for a little over a year. It’s really an entertaining tool for scaring people. I’m goalless, but I feel like that isn’t a worry yet. I’m slightly odd, much like everyone else on this planet. I’d like to think I’m friendly, but I don’t believe that I can truly gauge that on my own. I keep glass bottles, because I think they’re pretty. I have a lot of unspoken rules that I follow, and I can get pretty annoyed if someone breaks them.

Christina.
