In addition to everything else, I am now also emotionally distant to boot. Hysterical people, overly emotional people just annoy me now. I want tograb them and wring them until all those tears just come out in one go, as one would wring a wet towel and then begin to talk some sense into them. FYI, it's not very effective, a strategy like this.

Nowadays, a good friend have travelled up to Karachi from Lahore, where she is studying and she's staying with me for the duration. It's quite interesting to watch all these emotions in effect that I have never felt nor could hope to feel. One day she's so nervous she can't eat because she's off to meet someone who gives her honest to goodness butterflies in her stomache. I honestly didn't know it was possible to get those with regards to a person unless you were a character in some teenage romance flick. It makes me wonder what other emotions I may be dismissing as ridiculously overdramatic and possibly even extinct just because I have never experienced them.

I saw Closer a couple of days ago and besides being bitingly funny and completely relatable, the song it starts off with and ends with has been haunting me since.
