number fourteen


just now, i did something incredibly stupid. thus, this entry. i lighted all five of my candles. sometimes meesuah, you have to trust those $4 dollar candles from hot dollar. and i say that only because they've yet to fail me like this one you see on the left, in powdery form. no. it's not some mysterious powder drug. i bought a vanilla and brown sugar scented candle. yes meesuah. the same one i bought you. but silly me, i didn't bother to buy a plate. as a result, after less than an hour and a half of burning the brand new candle, disaster struck. initially, i looked over to the corner of my room and thought, nice, nothing is burning down so far. BUT upon closer inspection, i saw a nice soft creamy puddle on the carpet, getting bigger and bigger as the seconds tick by. the wax had somehow drizzled down the sides of the "good quality" candle and just settled on the carpet. that my friend, on the left, is the result of tons of scrapping at the carpet. now i have a patch of semi brand new carpet. he told me, "now you know what you've got to do eh?" in other words, to make the carpet look the same throughout the room, i should clean every other uncleaned portion of the carpet in the room.
