Mirror, mirror on the wall...

...who's the fairest of them all?

Not me.

Of late, like a mirror, i have been showing other people's reflections.

Be it their bad or good mood, I will reflect something similar. If they are sour, i will give them lemon juice...If they are happy, i'll be shining like the sun.

I dont mean to be this way. I'm just observing and its all reactionary, this reflecting thing. Its not intentional.

I will consciously try to stop.


It seems that because i have so much time on my hands, i just sit, stand, or whatever, and just observe everything that is around me. I watch how people act around one another...what they are saying...how they are saying it...whether there are any PDA's between couples...I notice how some on their mobiles think they own the public domain, because they are on the phone...I notice how many people there are running in the park during lunch and wonder why there are still so many that are overweight...and then i realise that "technically" i am overweight...but i'm one of them who are jogging on my lunch break! ha!

And its not just people i observe...but people make up most of the time.

I notice the weather...I notice the news...I notice advertisements...I notice cars...I notice stores and how they display things in a way that is suppose to entice me...I notice food and various produce...I notice smells...lots of smells...I notice light...I notice the smokers - that i want to avoid on the street...I notice the aggression in others...see, it always goes back to people...

I just notice many things.

I guess it keeps my head space occupied.

Not like i have better things to do...
=P
