a man inside

This term's final exam is in two days. Well, I have to admit that I haven't been studying hard this time. Not my kind of studying hard, I played too much, I watched tv too much, I slept too much, I blogged- naah not much :p

I just can't focus on studying. and suddenly I came up with this


Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. 
He's a toy, dressed in a lime green and purple astronaut suit. Wouldn't life be fun if I could play around with him all day?
He reminded me of my childhood memories, then I somehow wished I could stop growing up. I wanted to be a kid forever, like Andy, playing around with heaps of toys, or like any other kid, leaving my responsibilities behind, fading away to a universe of childish happiness, beyond the galaxies of gleeful laughter, colorful skies, all too joyful to resist. I want to live the way  they live. The way they don't have to think much about anything. The way they could be acting silly, doing things they want to do, with no one ever wanting to blame them for any mistake they did.
And nothing's gonna happen, nobody will punish me, no guilt will be felt. . . if I don't study.
But look, even Buzz has resposibilities, he's a commander, he fights aliens and things, he's got wings, and buttons, and an armed suit, and fighting skills, he's even got a quote:
to infinity and beyond,
says he. Even this toy, is a man inside, a highly motivated one.

Now why am I wishing to leave my responsibilities behind :\
