the stories we shared

if nothing else i want to deconstruct the way i see the world, and build it from scratch. join me.

i just

want to get on the effing plane and go already and not have to go through this stupid week of stupid goodbyes and stupid drunk nights and tired days wondering when it will all mean something, because let’s be honest, we’re all just lost lost lost fools

Maybe you will hurt me again. I don’t know how I’ll react then. Or maybe next time I’ll hurt you. No one can promise anything. Neither of us can make any promises.

unfortunately, out group is not the people I enjoy going out with. it’s better than nothing (sometimes), but usually I just don’t like being with drunk greek-lifers because they act like assholes…at least this applies to our group of fratty ego-ites. but that’s what social norms teach us to do. it’s unfortunate, but most people are sheep and don’t realize this fact. so they continue to follow their whole lives. the most successful people have realized this and don’t base their lives on the lives of others

the one quality i value/look for in my friends:

just straight up being real.

too much faking and masquerading and too much trying to please everyone.

i get it. it’s high school. 

but i do not abide by it. and i’ve never been so grateful to have chosen the other path. my own

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.

if that is the case,

i have made 4 friends here.

and i love them infinitely

I’ve always loved intelligent girls, no matter how they look, to be able to hold a conversation with someone is so important. The moment someone acts dumb, I lose interest. I think about the subtext and layers of a person when I design. I design for someone who has interest in the space around her, who is aware of her relationship with the world, someone a little evolved, a little concerned. I think putting more women in power will help solve a lot of problems in the world. It troubles me that the media celebrate women acting like bimbos on TV — it’s not cute, it’s ridiculous. I call it ‘Paris Hilton Syndrome’; there’s a place for that superficiality — but it must neutralized by an equally powerful, intelligent counterforce in culture. I don’t want to perpetuate the wrong ideal.

It’s the oldest story in the world. One day, you’re 17 and you’re planning for someday. And then quietly, without you’re ever really noticing, someday is today. And then someday is yesterday. And this is your life.
