the romantic and the depressed
I decided to be super organized and actually planned out all my blog posts for the month of January, to ensure I would actually, you know, write blogs. However, I took one look at today’s topic, crumpled it, and hurled it out the window into the snow to freeze. I have thus arrived with no…

Vibes and Aesthetics Only: Winter Edition
So the northeast got a big dumping of snow a few days ago, which meant I received a big dumping of snow. Woke up Monday morning to the cars practically buried in the driveway, and when (thanks due to dad and the neighbor) I got on the highway, it was one lane that was vagueishly…

You never know what’s gonna happen: 6 years of NaNoWriMo
(I haven’t written a blog since October 6th??? Hahah, WHOOPS) Before we get into this, let’s do a quick recap: yes, I have been terribly absent from the blogsphere, and doing a not-to-good job at being consistent on Instagram, but I’m giving it my best shot, alright?? I have a lot of editing to do,…

Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 61
1. September 22nd. It’s officially fall. And it couldn’t be a better first, fall morning at 8am. It’s dark and deeply overcast. It’s cool, and already there are brown leaves scattered across the lawn. The rain is steady, soft drifts of it coming down. It patters with a metallic thunk on the cars, drips and…

1. I think contentedness is better than happiness. Or maybe I simple prefer the word content to happy. Both are emotions. But happiness evokes a evokes a certain vibe, a style, an emotion that demands certain mannerisms. Happiness is energy. Happiness is yellow. Happiness can feel frail, always on the verge of flying away, forgetting…

Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 59
It’s a clear morning, and it’s cool. There are no clouds in the sky, except for thin ones low on the horizon, sitting behind the trees like mist. A crow calls. Bugs hum and chirp in the branches, making the air vibrate with sound, a reminder that it is in fact still summer, though it…

a fall mood blog for all us freaks buying pumpkins in august
I uh….love fall (on the Buzzfeed quiz I got 100% autumn) If I could enter through a pumpkin portal into a perpetually fall world, I would and I would stay there (with an occasional vacation because I also like being warm). (Also, please understand that though my love for fall is endless and knows no…

Saturday Morning Post Vol. 58
1. 4th of July weekend. The lake is wild today, white caps topping the waves like thick oil paint. The water itself is nearly three different colors, dark grey, green, and bright blue, as if the wind is mixing the water up and dividing it. Back across the road, they are setting up a carnival.…

1. It’s super duper windy today at the lake. In general it’s been very windy lately. I like wind. I like watching the trees bend and seeing the leaves fold over themselves, like they’re ducking for cover. Strong wind feels like a warning, and a lot of times it is. If anything in nature could…

1. Being an introvert can be hard…(I’m an introvert, in case anyone didn’t know). Being an introvert can feel like you’re constantly trying to be more extroverted. Constantly pushing yourself to be more sociable, and constantly brushing up on your people skills. We usually don’t talk about the benefits of being an introvert. Only the…
