oh sweet laundry… hanging in the wind….

i wanna have one of those houses with the flower boxes under the windows, the one with floors that creak in the night and that could use a little fixing. i wanna have a house with just enough space for me and my love to live out our lives. growing old in a house with a history, creating stories for ourselves each day.
i listened to a podcast where oprah said that you should pay attention to the lesson that has taken you the longest to learn and i guess mine is that my life is always going to be this chaotic and messy and i just need to put up my hair and laugh and maybe brew some iced chamomile tea and let it all happen.
the lesson: that there is no end in sight, nor should there be, but instead the relentless marching toward something, always; that happiness is not a place but something happening here, right now, something you have to catch when you can; that we are all children in a dark field, a firefly alighting in our hands for one luminous second–and then it’s gone.
Literally just romanticize your own life. What’s stopping you. Who will care. Commit to enjoying things.
weird study tip:
if u don’t feel motivated, pretend ur in a movie or tv show. you know the scenes where they’re on their bed with their feet tucked up and crossed at the ankle, and they’re cracking open highlighters with their teeth and poring over a textbook with smooth rock music playing? that. bonus points for a perfect messy bun and spencer hastings outfit.

i’m the opposite of the grinch. i’m the binch. my heart is two sizes too BIG
it’s that time of year smh
enjoy the short term!!! sometimes ur not gonna be friends for 46 years and that’s ok, just enjoy the drive!!! some people aren’t gonna have a significant impact in ur life but not every show is a TedTalk, sometimes u needs some Real Housewives!!’ loosen up, the universe is rearing to explode and if that bix isn’t permanent herself, you’ve got nothing to lose! forever is an illusion
please take a moment to appreciate yourself. appreciate how far you’ve come, how much effort you’ve put in to something, how much love you’ve given someone. appreciate yourself.
sometimes u just gotta clean your room and apply an elaborate skincare routine and pretend that’s equivalent to getting ur life in order
friendships that fluctuate between really stupid weird flippant jokes and earnest vulnerability and deep affection make life so much richer
