So, finally getting some motivation back

It’s not fully back yet, but I got a new friend invested in the story! So if all else fails, I’ll be making it for them as well as myself, I miss my babies ;v;

Soooo

I have a pretty big crush on this guy at work, and for the past week we’ve texted like everyday, like all day after work till we fall asleep and every morning before work, and some of our coworkers tell me that he likes me back, if I post some of our text screenshots can y’all help me figure everything out? I’m kinda dying?

(Also starting a new tag for my personal posts 💞)

Can we just take this story in for a second? I was so outraged today when I saw this story on National Geographic’s Instagram page. The world has become such an awful place and it disgusts me. People commented on Katie’s story as though she was someone who deserved to be punished because of her mental health problems. THIS IS NOT OKAY. I bet we all know someone close to us who deals with mental health issues, if not ourselves. Let me be clear, If you do not struggle with it, you do not know, nor do you deserve to attack others who are fighting a constant war in their own heads. I see so many people everyday trying to help people cope with their mental health and I am just disgusted at how some people can verbally attack others who are suffering. I feel like I could go on all night about this but it just makes me lose all faith in humanity. I was going to show you some of the comments people posted on the Instagram image, but instead I decided I would share the video made about Katie’s journey before, during, and after her transplant.

You can also call COAST or 911 in an emergency. 

If you ever want to chat, I am always around and willing to talk to strangers. We all need to learn to be a whole lot nicer to others, it seems we have lost that ability over the years and that needs to change. I challenge everyone to do something nice for someone else today. Hold a door, say hello to a stranger, call a distant friend and say hey, thank or tell a loved one that you appreciate them. This goes such a long way to make someone happy and you never know what people are going through so when you reach out it might be just what they need.

So I'm almost done season 2 of greys and I'm actually obsessed

[fucking-dork]

Things I've learned today playing tf2: Guys are rude as fuck once they learn you're a girl

[nteslaofficial]

Do you ever just find a person who makes you believe in love again after you get your heart broken and you feel like you might just find happiness again without that one you thought you loved because I found that today and I really couldn't be happier

[trxubleinparadise]

It doesn't matter how good things get, everything always goes back to shit eventually.

Jim Moriarty, the Master aaand Severus Snape :D

ooooh this is a good one:

Husband: Jim Moriarty (I feel like he would defend my honour, and I could probably keep myself in his good books)

Best friend: the Master

Brother: Severus Snape (he wouldn’t be affectionate, but I think if anyone had laid a hand on his sister, he would sectumsempra that bitch so hard…)

thank you, this was really fun!  ^-^

[trxubleinparadise]

Fed up of people's shit. I haven't got time for other people's problems. I barely have time for my own.

Christmas Eve will always be bittersweet because of you.

[trxubleinparadise]

I'd forgotten how horrible it was to go to bed without having somebody to talk to until you fall asleep

[trxubleinparadise]

My mother needs to realise that she’d know what I was doing and when I was doing it if she actually listened to me when I spoke.

[trxubleinparadise]

Parents complaining that I don't act like I want to live in their house, you're right, I don't. Maybe if you made me feel welcome in my own home I'd want to be here.
