This is, again, not a happy post with pictures of My Today, it itsn’t a book review, everything that’s going on this blog right now is simply thoughts, I need an outlet, some kind of typing it out, being heard. I’m again at that weird phase where I am sad, one minute, I have it all under control, the other, I sit on my bed crying because I can’t find the charger for my...
On Feeling Lost
Lost is not happy, but it isn’t sad.
Lost is having no direction, no more, no less.
Isn't it funny how you are always so afraid of...
Becoming Light: Because I Am Here →
This has helped. It’s helped so, so much, it’s spoken aloud what is in my head.
Read it or don’t, but really, it’s beautiful.
becoming-light:
Today was sluggish, delayed, distant. I woke up in exactly the same mood I’d fallen asleep in. A nasty, spitting, edge-of-fear kind of mood for no specific reason, leaving me with no words (or perhaps a million). I dragged myself...
Here is Now
I’m making a sign, big and bold, for my room today.
It will say “now is here” so I can remember just that.
You are here. You are now. That’s what counts, and if you forget, take a deep breath.
Fuck you, later, now is here. Now is what counts.
typing it out
To anyone, to you, but mostly, to me.
I’m having a hard day, a hard week, a hard measure of time. There, I’ve said it. Everything’s okay on the outside, but the inside of my brain is not figuring out how to be who it was destined to be. Every time I read something saying to just be who you are I wince. Who am I? What am I? Where am I? What is the life I want for myself? What am...

A beautiful, kind message in my inbox.
Thank you.
New on my list of stuff that goes in one ear and...

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
I was sitting in the movie theater and this trailer came on.
And, it made me cry.
So then, a week later I found the book in the bookshelf in the living room and I started to read and it got later and later and night, the hot water bottle not hot any more, not warm, but my eyes were fixed, heavy but fixed and I fell asleep out of exhaustion. I had weird dreams, of Nutella and Sweden, that’s...
This Life is Mine
I have decided to cut down my internet time radically.
The sole reason is: My life is there, it’s waiting, and it’s awesome.
I spend a lot of time on the internet on-and-off, not really on it but checking facebook and tumblr while doing other stuff. But, you know, it doesn’t make a difference whether you are there on the internets or not. I love writing to friends all over the...

Friday Fun Day Food Day!
It’s Friday!
The weekend is coming!
I had an awesome day!
I’ve reached that state of mind, the normal one, where I am neither very, very unhappy, and exhilaratingly, mindblowingly happy. I just am content, glad, loving, loved. Really, that alone is fun!
And, since I like fun stuff, I thought I’d make a list. Yay for that, huh?
Yay for that.

S-s-s-studying my brain off
So here’s to breaks, one week off, and wasting it by essentially, eating, sleeping, studying. I’m sorry for the lack of a book review. Soon, I’ll do more. Next week.
Eff school.
Also, a daydream.
Being in a warm place, barefoot, someone you love sitting on the porch.
Baking Lemon Muffins, the color of the zest matching your kitchen walls.
Sitting cross-legged on the hardwood...

Napoli
A love note to Napoli. Naples.
A love note to the time where I wore a dress every single day-one like this, with a short skirt, and open hair.
This city is magical. It’s lud and huge and dirty and full of garbage, excuse me, but it is also full of wide-hearted people, full of open smiles and ancient history. I am such a geek. We waited for a bus for twenty minutes and then decided to walk....
Things that inspire me: Sleep.
I am so tired, it’s taken me ten minutes for this sentence.

Dear Monkey Family,
I can’t wait to start the chain letters.
Words, across the world. Passing from one hand to another, dreaming, reaching.
Really, I can’t wait. I am so excited, it is taking some self-control to not just write in caps.
Friday Fun Day (not so) Food Day
Today was such a fun day.
It was exhausting and my feet hurt like nobody’s business, but oh, was it fun!
(Well, except for getting my report card for the term. Sucked, that.)
School finished super early, it went by so quickly and have I mentioned I love you, People From School That Will Always Make Me Laugh? and I went and saw B.
Dear B,
thank you for always being there. Thank you for...

a quick happy moment
It was freezing cold outside, already dark, and my fingers were numb. I had forgotten to put on wool socks and my toes were slippery in the leather shoes. I was walking as fast as I could looking, up to the sky. A habit of mine.
I spotted the moon, clear, a sliver only, shining like it was not reflecting, but producing the light. I haven’t seen the moon like that for so long. The sky was...

Book Review: Sisterhood Everlasting
There is so much to say about this book.
The first thing is: It is so beautiful. It overwhelmed me at first, but then, it was more than I had imagined Ann Brashares ever becoming. She had kept her beautiful, yet very easy form of writing throughout the years, and then, she gave us this. Every sentence is in harmony with the other. Every word makes sense just where it is. Every...

I Dream of Summer
Today, I dream of summer, of bare toes and watermelon, of lush grass and sprinklers.
I dream of fresh strawberries and short dresses, of lemonade on ice and ice cream cones.
Today, I dream of summer.
What do you dream of?
A Love Note
This is a love note to this kind of Sunday.
It’s the kind of Sunday that’s slow, but not too slow. Let’s say, leisure. My belly is so full and my heart is, too. What a combination.
This is a love note to these kind of people.
It’s the kind of people that you want to keep close to your heart. Hold them tight, always, because they are so dear.
This is a love note to this...
