I was in 4th grade when I watched this movie..............first day, first show, on a school picnic❤️✨

I didn't have friends back then. I was that quiet, shy, extremely introverted kid who always sat in the last corner of the classroom..............so, I sat all alone in a hall full of kids.............f11 seat (I still remember)😭❤️

This was the first movie I watched alone, I'd say and I remember crying during the movie and even after coming back home. This movie holds so many memories and so much love in my heart...........it'll always be special to me🌻✨

Andrew is the BEST Spiderman🕷️✨

I'm not sad, so don't dm me........I'm just feeling nostalgic🌻✨

I realized that our definition of love depends a lot on what we saw love as while growing up. I hope that whenever I find love, it looks nothing like the kind of love I grew up seeing around me.

Will probably delete this by morning:)

The post probably looks like I’m simply talking about drawing stars on each other’s hands, but there’s actually a very specific nerdy meaning behind it.

In astronomy, a binary star system is made up of two stars that are gravitationally bound to each other. They don’t simply exist next to one another...................their gravity affects each other, and they orbit around a common center of mass (barycenter).

What I find romantic about this is that neither star has to stop being a star of its own. They remain two individual stars, with their own identities and their own existence, but they become part of the same system. Their motion is connected because of the gravitational relationship between them.

So this post, “Can we draw stars on each other’s hands?”, wasn’t just about drawing two cute little stars. The idea was basically, “What if we were binary stars?”

Two separate people. Two separate lives. Two individual identities. But somehow gravitationally connected ............constantly influencing each other and moving through life as part of the same system.

There’s another beautiful part of the physics: they orbit their common center of mass, rather than one star simply revolving around the other. So romantically, it’s not really “one person is the center of the other’s universe”. It’s more like “we create our own center together”

Depending on the binary system, the stars can also be incredibly close and may even interact with each other and transfer material. In those interacting systems, their relationship can affect the evolution of both stars. So the metaphor isn’t just “two stars beside each other”....................it’s two celestial bodies whose connection can influence their paths and, in some cases, their evolution.

Obviously, binary stars don’t “love” each other. Their connection is gravity. But that’s exactly what makes the metaphor so pretty to me: gravity is an invisible force connecting two otherwise separate objects across enormous distances.

So the stars on the hands were basically my nerdy little way of saying:

“If you were a star and I were a star, I’d want us to be a binary system...........two individual stars, gravitationally bound, orbiting our shared center” 🌌✨

That was the whole meaning behind the post💫✨

Mine was when I was in 11th grade✨

Me and my classmate were sitting in the library and talking. I know libraries aren't exactly meant for talking, but books toh kabhi bhi padh sakte hai. Those little moments when everyone is around, laughing and just enjoying together......you don't get them back.

One of my friends was participating in the classical dance for our annual function and she asked us what color contact lenses she should wear for the annual day. As good friends, all of us started giving suggestions and then one of my friends said, "Just like hers (pointing at me)"

I was so shocked that I could suddenly feel the silence in the library. All that laughing and talking just went quiet for me.

He continued, "Don't you know you have pretty eyes? Your eyes shine in sunlight. The spark in them when you laugh out of joy."

I don't think he realizes how overwhelmed I was by those words. I smiled like an idiot for the entire day and wrote it down in my diary. Then I wrote it in my digital diary too, because I didn't want to ever lose that moment.

Even now, I love reading that page again and again.

I know it wasn't exactly a compliment in the usual sense, but whatever it was, it made me believe that maybe I have pretty eyes too.

He has no idea how many times after that day I took pictures of my eyes in sunlight just to see what he saw.

Most mornings when I apply mascara, his words randomly cross my mind and I smile like a kid.

He probably doesn't even remember saying those words, but I still remember them years later. Sometimes, you don't realize how much your words can mean to someone❤️
