Haven’t been on tumblr for almost a year but i just checked my activity and i gained two followers yesterday #PowerMovesOnly 

alright forsure: 

this is one of the rare moments where i feel like i have a lot to say and it won’t be right in a tweet format, a thread of tweets would be mad annoying + i’m actually down to be in my feelings 

Attended AFLV this weekend in SD! I went last year and had a dope ass time and got to bond with so many people, even though the conference itself was trash and the food was worse than a chino valley unified school district lunch. I remember at the end thinking to myself, “fuck......I cannot wait to do this all over again next year” Well now “next year” came and went and I’m sitting here thinking, “fuck.....i’m really going to miss these sort of weekends”

On Friday night after we all went out to dinner together we came back to the hotel and I told Carly she had to come back to my room’s balcony to see the unreal view of the harbor and skyline since her view was of a wall. perks of being on the ninth floor. So we’re out there both leaning on the railing looking out at the view and it was fucking magical. Like, everything was just so perfect. The city lights and their neon reflections on the harbor and the calm ass sound of the water mixed with bustling traffic and the slight wind where it wasn’t cold but just enough to be refreshing. I’m pointing at the different buildings and she’s supplying me with all this info about the Gas Lamp District and telling me about San Diego’s Little Italy and everything was just flowing so well. She’s one of those people where a lot of the times it seems like she’d rather be somewhere else but that moment just felt so right, we’re talking about everything and anything. during comfortable silences we just glance over at each other and then look back out on the harbor. 

It sounds like i’m in love with her but i’m really not. She’s just someone who i look up to and really care about and it sunk in that there will be very few moments with her again like this. I spent my entire college career under her wing (and in her fking office) but I’m graduating soon. After graduation we won’t talk anymore and that’ll be my new normal, and that’s completely normal. it’s just depressing. I mean, I’ll spend a lot more time with her in her office, laying on her couch for hours while we once again talk about everything and anything while she types on her computer but there was just something about being with her there at that moment that was super special to me.

take away the good things from your culture and get rid of the values that perpetuate the oppression against minorities. we are nothing if we don’t filter out the negative aspects of our cultures so that future generations don’t have to suffer under colorism and homophobia and misogyny and languages/ethnic group superiority etc. we are nothing if we don’t learn from past mistakes and make ourselves better than our parents and their parents. fight stagnancy, fight archaic mindsets. take forward the positive aspects of our cultures and leave all else behind.

Interviewer: What would you like to tell people? Andrei Tarkovsky: I don’t know… I think I’d like to say only that they should learn to be alone and try to spend as much time as possible by themselves. I think one of the faults of young people today is that they try to come together around events that are noisy, almost aggressive at times. This desire to be together in order to not feel alone is an unfortunate symptom, in my opinion. Every person needs to learn from childhood how to be spend time with oneself. That doesn’t mean he should be lonely, but that he shouldn’t grow bored with himself because people who grow bored in their own company seem to me in danger, from a self-esteem point of view. :
