why are so many people afraid of being alone? being alone doesn’t inherently mean you’re lonely.

[i-rationality]

I want to be the type of person that wakes up at 5 a.m and meditates. The type of person who drinks green juice for breakfast but also drinks unholy amounts of coffee throughout the day. The type of person that studies by candlelight and learns new languages in a desperate attempt to decipher how the existence of certain words can affect someone’s way of thinking.

I want to be in love with the process of being, not the goals I achieve. I want to stop valuing accomplishments because other people will be impressed by me and I want to start seeing those same accomplishments as mere reflections of the type of person I am.

I want to stop romanticizing my future and start romanticizing my present. I’m tired of craving too much and not at all at the same time, I’m tired of working myself to the bone, I’m tired of my dissatisfaction, I’m tired of people congratulating me and me not believing them.

I want to stop seeing every moment as something of great importance, I want to start seeing every moment as something of great importance.

get to know me?

Hello hi everyone

This is like the first blog I’ve ever had with more than like, 5 followers so I figured I’d introduce myself?

i guess i’ll just do a funky little list? here goes nothing.

will probably be long so i inserted a read more so you don’t have to scroll for a while! 

name: ariel (pronounced are-ee-ell) 

- with that being said, call me whatever you want or whatever you associate me with. if you had a name in mind send it to me!! im interested to hear what you all think o:

pronouns: she/they but i dont really care honestly. i gave up on gender years ago 

age: 17 (i turn 18 in april)

zodiac: aries sun, saggitarius moon, cancer rising

what got me on academiablr: i’ve always loved studyblr, but i kinda took a break from it my sophomore year up until fall of my senior year. i came back and dark academia was a thing, and i love books/classical music/dark clothing/etc etc so here i am 

where i’m from: rural south, united states of america 

favorite color: yellow!!!! i could live in it!! 

pets: i have 3 cats! 

favorite subjects: all of them! (except computer science) 

hobbies: i do ballet and classical singing as main hobbies. i also paint! 

favorite books/authors?: i love love love love leo tolstoy, oh my god. i’m also getting more into dostoyevsky, however i’ve only read one of his books (the house of the dead), so i feel like i can’t quite list dostoyevsky as a favorite. franz kafka’s writings also have my heart, oh goodness, they’re so amazing. shakespeare too!!! i love shakespeare!! as for books, there are so many, but if I had to choose some, I’d narrow it down to frankenstein, anna karenina, romeo and juliet, titus andronicus, and i better stop now before i go down a rabbit hole.

whats on my tbr?: far too many to count. in the immediate future, the secret history, the brothers karamazov, and definitely more tolstoy and dostoyevsky! i’d also like to grab a copy of eugene onegin and dead souls at some point.

favorite artists?: I wouldn’t say I have a favorite, but lately I’ve been vibing with ic3peak, alyona shvets, and gretchka! i listen to a lot though, you can check out my spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/user/oyzri2j5hl8e5vwjyjv41701k?si=5h_V6myHSj--5mQGuvFtew

academia goals: i would love to learn russian and become more fluent in german (i speak very poor, broken german - not fluent at all). i’m aiming for dartmouth college or columbia u in new york, but i get my decisions april 6th and i know i’ll end up where i’m supposed to! 

other goals: after university i’d like to dance ballet with the mikhailovsky theatre in st petersburg! 

celebrities/influencers i look up to: taylor olsen, anzhelina vorontsova, nastya kreslina, probably more but i am very sleep deprived so i don’t remember.

political leaning: far left, raging feminist, pro trans rights, pro blm, all that 

um anyway this post is too long now, feel free to send asks if you wanna learn anything else! nothing is really off limits, just don’t be a creep
