yesterday night, after i got off work, i had a conversation with an elderly man at the bus stop. he told me that he retired at age 28 and hasn’t worked in over 35 years. he also told me that i should marry for money (and that i would most likely have no trouble doing so) and stared deeply into my eyes for a good two minutes and proceeded to tell me that the amount of makeup i was wearing...
this summer > last summer by a mile.
i’m so much happier and hopefully, things will stay like this for awhile.

mydearholmes asked: Damn, it looks like you're going through some tough relationship decisions right now. You have to remember that you're young, you're allowed to be confused sometimes and take time to figure out what you want. If he asks hardcore stuff again, it's okay to say: I don't know right now. And he'll just have to deal. It's not the 18th century where young maidens were...
[[MORE]]i feel like we’re both at completely different stages in our lives (he’s already looking to find a career and i’m still a student), yet we both want the same things (to move to new york or london and work in the fashion industry). today, we went to this housing and furniture store called in form and he fell in love with it. he asked me jokingly if i wanted to live with...

today, i went to jesse’s house before our j.crew store meeting and we decided that we’re going to start an online shop and sell everything in our closets that we want to get rid of. some of the things that came out of his closet were pretty freaking hilarious, such as this pair of jeans.
yay for productivity.

i need to stop overthinking things, because it just makes everything so much worse. instead, i need to start seeing things as they are.
things:
my parents have been gone for five days and won’t return ‘till sunday or monday. coming home at night to a quiet and empty house + not getting yelled at constantly = the best.
last week > this week. i want things to go back to the way they were, when everything between us wasn’t so serious.
i’m tired of people telling me what to do and how i should live my...

i’ve always been a sentimental person; the kind that holds onto useless material items that have past their expiry date. i always fear that if i let go, the memories that are attached to them will be gone forever.
when i was younger, people were constantly saying goodbye to me, without giving me any prior notice. for quite awhile, i felt as if there was something wrong with me; that there...
“it’s because you’re so sensitive to your surroundings and because you care too much.”
he hit the nail on the head with that one, alright. i’ve always been overly perceptive and as a result, i tend to over-analyze situations, to the point where it drives me towards the edge of insanity. that’s why i’m a lit major; because i read way too far into...
