Oh, so there’s that funny story where I fell for the sly charmer The one I promise would be just for crowded lonely nights and temporary conversation escapism, strictly on sugar talks but we took it too far, strayed from strangers, left the thinking behind and here I am, reading you my pasts as you tell me to rest my head on your arms There’s no tune ever too familiar, yet, it feels like...

TEXTBOOK: HOLDEN CAULFIELD →
textbook:
Holden Caulfield was the first post on Textbook, so I figured why not re-do it since it’s been a couple years. Anyways, we all had to readCatcher in the Ryein high school and we all know it’s a good book. Holden plays the part of spoiled New York City brat who bounces from school to school…

grateful
It seems like God has been giving me the things that I want, and I find myself in the process of getting there, it’s not going to break me, but it definitely requires all of me.
Here’s to process, and that rainbow at the end of the road.

I wish I have a tape recorder for every phone call that we make, because I want to listen to you over and over again, and recreate that smile.

The New Inquiry: I Dream of Deenie →
“I’ve become aware that there is a body image living inside my head, one that’s plastic and that can shift according to new information it receives.” (Autumn Whitefield-Madrano - I Dream of Deenie)
thenewinquiry:
Most of the time when I refer to body image, I’m really referring to negative self-talk. The image part doesn’t come up much, not for me; I’m pretty sure that my actual...

My Article at Tongue in Chic: Roundup:...
With the rise of the eco-warrior, it’s hard to assuage the guilt that stems forth upon looking at one’s beauty bag and shelves. The biggest offenses in the green movement are environmentally inconsiderate packaging, practices and ingredients; of which many of the bigger names in the industry are accused. We decided to reverse the negative tides by seeking out beauty brands that instead choose the...

tag, you're it.
I guess it’s that time again where I dig up old archives of love stories I went through and think back, whether falling this time is different than it was before.
I would like to think this particular quote describes me perfectly: “One day, someone will walk into your life and make you see why it never worked out with anyone else.” But that’s another trap of falling,...

aged things
The older I get, the more I believe that feelings of worries and shyness should be shoved down. When you get bad news, don’t react, bury that redundancy, think of 10 solutions. Now this way might sound like it could lead you to the long comfortable leather seat of a therapist, but it shouldn’t be that way. Life is full of many little encounters that tie up to its bigger picture. So...

springtime lovin'
When you meet that someone that makes you go, “Finally. Where have you been all my life?” and he says, “I’ve been around, but I believe we met at the right time.”
And that someone grounds you to earth, that balance seem like a possibility in the future.
Yoga saved me. I think it gave me things I didn’t think I need. I understand the food that goes inside my...

literally living our favourite tune
set Saturdays to John West’s Lovely, fresh fruits in bed, long drives with our hands intertwined, kisses in the back seat of a movie, stealing moments away from the crowd, can I just say, it’s been fucking great knowing you without the social media trail? And the questions I want to know about you are always directed to you, not to friends, or ghosts from the past? Can I just confess,...
