a pencil sharpener whirring
napping rabbits
pastel colours

I burst into my dad’s room exclaiming that I have a “hilarious” video on youtube to show him. We watch it together… and he doesn’t laugh at all. -_-” So I awkwardly take my laptop back to my room. *Sigh..

In the midst of your pain-stabbing words, I sat still and took it all in. I had no dignity. I had no retaliation. I had no anger. I just sat there and listened.
Now… the question is…
Will I do something about it?
Or will I go back to numbing myself from life and continue using escapism as my weapon of choice?
(((Nobody said it was easy)))
topsy-turvyteaparty asked: Hi! I'm not really sure how I came across your page :P I haven't had the time to give it a thorough look over (so far seems lovely), but WHAT is the first song on your playlist? I immediately fell in love with it. Yes, I could just look up the lyrics, but who doesn't like receiving messages? :) Oh, and my deepest condolences about your dog. I don't know what it's like, but...

Compulsively plucking out my eyelash extensions…….
I shouldn’t have even gotten them done in the first place. Noticing a lash jutting out-of-place in the slightest angle drives this mad, insatiable impulse to pluck that bad boy out ..instead of just straightening it out with an eyelash curler or something… I literally have no lash hairs left on my left eye because my real...

Forgot to mention…
I saw THE hottest guy at the Guess? store today :$
He looked like a model or one of those really good-looking guys on tumblr with perfect hair and killer style. Kind of like this:
HAHAHAHA… but yeah, he was pretty cute for a real life person in close proximity. I hope I didn’t gape too much ..*shifty eyes*

So, today was the best boxing day ever. And yesterday had been the worst Christmas ever. I guess it evens it out… sort of. I’m happy because I didn’t buy a lot of things. To hear that some people get up at six in the morning to get to downtown by seven for boxing day is just.. insane. I hope to never regress to such a warped degree of consumerism. I mean, they’re just...

Dear Santa
upinelaire:
This Christmas, I don’t want clothes, money, jewelry, shoes, or anything like that. I just want to meet a couple of new and amazing people who will inspire the shit out of me. Ooh, but one thing… I would really, really like to receive a few really good books that I promise I will read this time. That is all.
I’m leaving you my copy of Room by Emma Donoghue at your doorstep....

If, for one second, you’d think I would fall for such pretty words or more-than-friendly gestures, you’ve got me confused with a naive and younger version of myself. Boys can be so fucking insincere just to get what they want when clearly they’re going to forget about you in the morning anyways. I’m done with that kind of shit. If I play along, obviously I know what...

This week has been the busiest, most event-filled weeks of my life, hew! Or maybe it feels like so because I’ve trudged through a repetitive schedule of school, work, church, with the same extracurricular activities since September. And now I’m just getting a week-long phase of fun. I’m purposely excluding the heavy amount of schoolwork I was supposed to do this week because I...
peaceofmindmusic asked: Hey, I just started reading 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. Have you read it yet? Haha I know it's random but you're the only person I know who reads a lot.
