this post is making me think about how i feel like i might never feel like i’ve truly grown up. i feel like i’ll always be the youngest and new in something. i’m starting to realize though that maybe that isn’t such a bad thing

helooo, im about to graduate highschool soon and i have been having this feeling in my chest for awhile now. im trying not to worry about the future and enjoy my time for these last two months of highschool. my senior year felt like a movie and as much as i absolutely hate school i already am gonna miss the feeling of being a kid in school for some reason. im not planning on going to college right afterwards and hearing my friends knowing what they wanna persue in after highschool and people peer pressuring me about college makes me a little overwhelmed. it’s other personal reasons why I don’t plan on going. i don’t wanna feel like i have to hurry up and rush to do things before i graduate…towards going to the end of highschool its definitely a bitter sweet feeling…

looking at your post i love how you word things and i just want some calm and good advice on life after highschool. im gonna miss a lot of my friends and i feel as if we’re not gonna be in contact anymore because they barley reach out to me after school. i don’t wanna be one of those people looking back at highschool and like mourning on it. im trying to move forward and have motivation to persue the unknown.

hey lov,

end of the school era can be a lot to take in. it's quite a scary place to be in and i just want to hug you and tell you that it's going to be alright ♡. you seem like the sweetest human ever, just a feeling i got after reading your ask.

and it's all the more tougher when you have decided to take gap year(s) or other alternative path than jumping straight for higher studies or an equivalent conventional way of life. seeing other people heading confidently to options other than your own can be intimidating.

i just want to state a universal truth here—nobody has it all figured out. and i think it's so brave to sit with this fear of uncertainty. it just means that you trust yourself, you trust that you'll figure a way out. i think chapters like these in life are a sweet spot for such lessons/mindset.

you are so young my love, failure can seem scary but i want you to pursue whatever you have planned after school. there might come situations where you see everyone around you making waves but you feel kind of just stuck there, and people may ridicule you. i hope you trust yourself at those times. i hope you choose to remember that everyone is on their own timeline and no two lives can be compared. and i hope you are always a little excited about what next, an element of spontaneity.

i am about to head to my final year in undergrad and i don't know what i am going to do next tbh. i wouldn't say i am somehow intentional with the coping of unknown. i am just going with the flow and building proofs to say that it's safe to trust myself.

don't try to force a connection with people—as much as it's easy to say, it's a lesson i am continually learning myself. about your friends, i know that it can be hard to distance away, especially when your friends will be busy once college starts. for some people solitude is comfortable and for some it's not. i urge you to seek comfort in your solitude, getting to understand the wonderful human in you while also going out and seeking out connections!

there's a lot of things going on with this post gosh. to summarize—trust yourself with all your heart. trust that you are going to figure it out my love. because for a fact i know that you will. i trust you ♡

there is no bigger betrayal than going through the mcdonald’s drive thru and your friend says they just want a water

anything other than a big mac or 10 piece nuggets is offensive

saw a tiktok about how men are either kiki or bouba and here’s a list of other things that i think are strictly kiki or bouba

for reference bouba and kiki are from a psychology experiment when people were given the names kiki and bouba they always gave the object to the left bouba and to the right kiki based on the shapes

english = bouba and math = kiki

chic fil a = bouba and raising canes = kiki

pac 12 = bouba and sec = kiki

adidas = bouba and nike = kiki

jim halpert = bouba and micheal scott = kiki

chicken = bouba and steak = kiki

chipotle = bouba and qdoba = kiki

please tell me this makes sense to someone else and please comment more boubas and kikis

the last of us updates : warning spoilers ahead

what do we think is going to happen to joel in the next episode of #thelastofus I don’t think that there is any way that joel can be dead. I am very curious how they will manage to make this show without spoilers from the game, if they stick together in the game i don’t think they can continue on without each other. i also think the entire vibe of the show would change completely if joel does die and this wasn’t the direction i was expecting them to take. i think the special part about this show is seeing joel reconnect with ellie as he once did with his daughter with the banter and jokes, but this aspect will be lost with his death. the after episode recap captured it perfectly. joel makes ellie less afraid but ellie makes joel more afraid due to his fear of losing someone that’s trusts him to protect them again. what do you think will happen to joel? even if he wakes up how will they get to where they need to go if he is so significantly injured? could this bring a new “tribe” into the mix, similar to his brothers commun? perhaps this could also cause issues with ellie as she might get discovered
