Imagine this a jegulus to all the boys I loved before au where Regulus is Lara gene Sirius is Kitty and the 2 boys are James and Remus because Sirius is Kitty and the older sister combined. When sirius reads these letters after an argument with Regulus he sends them out not expecting the drama that unfolds ,

like if you want me to write it

Why didn't netflix hire korean biracial girls to play Lara Jean and Kitty in To All the Boys I've Loved Before trilogy and XO Kitty? Lana Condor is a Vietnamese American and Anna Cathcart is Chinese descent. Also, Margot Covey was played by a half Hawaiian and half Chinese actress. The actresses are great but😭

I know what you mean nonny!!!! I honestly don't think it's an excuse but 6 years ago when this franchise was cast there was less scrutiny about racial casting.

to all the boys i loved before: two

he was my classmate. he was one of my best friends. he was also my first love - still is.

dear ayush bhatt - where do i start with you?

i will do my best to write about him, to make you know and love him as much as i did, but forgive me if i fail to do so. he shines as bright as the sun - and i might be unable to capture his brilliance with my words alone.

i met him seven years ago, in fourth grade, but we only talked two years later, as two ambitious sixth graders hoping to achieve great things in this world. despite belonging to the same section, and the same friend group, we'd never talked before. shocking and unbelievable, but true.

we sat together at school, and we quickly became the best of friends; we were both witty, shared a lot of interests and i thought he was one of the most charming people i'd ever met - still is. i'll never get over how quickly he wormed his way into my heart, even if as a friend.

he quickly became my best friend - he was smart, and kind and was willing to listen. he probably didn't understand much as to why i was so worried about the way i looked or my diet at age eleven, but he'd listen. and that's what i wanted. i wasn't looking to be judged or given advice, i just wanted someone who'd let me ramble for hours.

somewhere between the shared lunch hour and the whispered conversations to avoid being caught by the teachers, i fell in love with him.

if you've ever heard the quote - 'i fell in love with him the way you fall asleep; suddenly, and then all at once' - it would be apt for my situation at the time.

i don't even know how he wormed his way into my heart, but he did. i'm willing to bet it wasn't even that hard for him - he probably just smiled at me the way he always did, like we had a secret nobody else knew, and i fell.

i kept quiet throughout the year, of course - it was 6th grade, and everybody was confessing to their crushes. if he had rejected me, i don't quite think i could have dealt with the fallout and the ruination of a friendship i held so close to my heart.

and then we got shuffled, and we stopped talking.

we both made new friends, and our promises of remaining friends and eating lunch with each other and exchanging books soon fell by the wayside. we drifted apart - while we still said hi and exchanged small talk, our previous closeness had been eroded. he had new female friends, i had new male ones.

it was ok. i dealt with it the way you'd deal with a handicap - by ignoring it and working your life around it. i stopped going down shared corridors, choosing to go by the longer path - stopped going to the basketball grounds because i knew he's going be there, excelling as he always did at basketball. i hid away in the library, or in corners of the school nobody frequented.

in 2020, i made the decision that i would put him behind in my past and leave him as nothing more than a good memory. and then the lockdown hit.

the lockdown in india made it a lot easier to strengthen that decision. there were online classes, and we didn't see or talk to each other during that two year period. for all purposes, ayush bhatt and mira harris were no longer, and had never been anything.

when schools reopened for tenth grade, he wasn't the first thought on my mind. he was maybe the fiftieth or sixtieth, no one's counting. and then i saw him at school, and it hurt.

he'd grown taller - before, i was taller than him, and always made fun of him for that - and while his height changed, his smile hadn't. it was still beautiful, and it still bewitched me and made my heart ache for the things and time i'd lost.

i saw him around after that - we assumed the relationship of two acquaintances who were friendly enough with each other. every time i saw him, it would feel like somebody kicked me in the gut and the air had left my lungs and i'd have to start taking deeper breaths because i didn't want to cry in front of him.

i didn't have to worry about that after a while - the board exams happened, and we stopped talking completely. no time to - we were constantly studying, and revising and trying to do our best. we both did well, of course - he scored a 100 in math and 93.8% overall, and i got 94%. and now i've left school for fiitjee (derogatory), and he stayed back at school.

where are we now?

i know you probably expect us to have stopped talking completely. this is supposed to be a post about the one who got away, a boy i used to love before and miss to my heart's content.

but we haven't.

we still talk, over emails. ridiculous, but true - it takes nearly two weeks for him to respond to any of my mails, but he does reply. we talk about our lives - four years ago, i used to know a lot of things about him. i know that he got into playing chess, got sucked into the iit dream, and got a girlfriend. now, he knows quite a lot about me; my depression, dislike for MPC and the little things that make my life worth living.

i don't think he knows he's one of them.

i love him even now. he'll never know i loved him, or still do - to him, i will be a casual friend he drifted away from, and nothing more than that.

he's a little like the sun. he shines so brightly, i can't even look at him without flinching - and he's not mine to belong to, because the sun belongs to nobody. i don't regret any moment of it - i'd do it, live 2018 all over again if god let me.

maybe i will meet him in person again. maybe in another universe, i'll fall just as hard as i did in this one.

i love you. i'll find you in another universe.

LANA CONDOR at the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on March 12th 2023 wearing CRISTINA OTTAVIANO

Lana is one of my favorite actresses, and I was so excited to see her at this event. I thought this was a strong look. The silver material felt like a perfect party dress, and a great choice for this event. The low cut was pretty, but I wish she added a little necklace to the outfit, the top half felt a bit bare.

[gregorycddie]

rewatching to all the boys and omg king bach jumpscare i totally forgot about that

[moonsbijou]

having the nearly uncontrollable urge to buy buy buy to make you room look like the main character’s room of a show geared towards young women

[current-obsession-hoard]

I swear when they were adding rules I thought Peter was going to add

‘Don’t fall in love with each other’

Fhehshjddjdhhdjdjrjdjrurhrurjrhrhrhrjrjr

Lucas said it best, but deep down I think he wanted to get to know her

how peter kavinsky got into stanford but lara jean was rejected??? It can only be racism, that guy is dumb

tbh I never saw the third movie! but wtf I thought Lara Jean was the smart one in the friend group????

mod ali

[spacebetweenheartbeats]

to all the boys i loved before: one

the first boy i ever loved was ten years older than me.

i guess i never really loved him - i had a crush on him, and i was five years old. at age five, i only knew the word love and not like, and to me, i loved him.

he was in the same school bus as i was - a few seats up front from mine. i still remember his face - he wore glasses. i loved his smile a lot - it was gentle and kind and every time i saw him smile, i'd fall a little more in love with him.

i'd sit and watch him live his life, be happy and laugh with his friends and worry over tests - and i'd feel happy simply to be given the chance to observe him. to see him.

it was okay that he never noticed me. i was a little kid - small and bright eyed. i think it would be weird if he had noticed me - what did he even notice about me?

it was fine - until the day he left the school.

of course, now i know he finished his board exams and left school for greater things in life - but at that time, i only knew that he was gone. he wasn't going to come back - not now, not ever.

i didn't cry - i wasn't very sad over him. five year old me, even at that age, was aware that he would not come back to me, he never belonged to me for him to come back to me.

it took a while for me to fall back into my life - i missed his smile, and the way his eyes would crinkle in the corners when he smiled, the way he looked with the evening sunlight framing his face.

most of all, i missed the way he didn't have to do anything for me to feel a little better - he simply existed.

i guess that is the moral here - he existed, and he made me feel happy for that.

i didn't know his name, and if i once did, i don't remember it. i know it would have been lovely and beautiful and the perfect representation of him.

thank you, whoever you are. you made five year old me very happy, and i hope you've found someone who makes you just as happy as you made me.

LANA CONDOR at the Tory Burch FW23 Fashion Show on February 13th 2023 in New York City wearing TORY BURCH

This was a great look for Lana! She looks so classy and almost regal, but like casually regal. I love when someone wears brown and pulls it off so well, it’s not a common color. I think the styling of this look was just so chic and Lana looked great!

[googoogagahearteyes]

Just a statistic I’m interested in finding out :)

Like for me it would depend on who it was etc etc but overall still a yes bc it would be funny yknow
