#i’m going to cry i hate fomo

[a1nsl3yyy]

sorry for this long rant but i need to know if anyone else feels the same way.

(i wrote this when i was in class lmaoo)

bro, tell me why i’m actually about to cry. i saw hayden announced new merch dropping next week, and i got so hyped. i was reading through the comments, and apparently, she’s bringing back some of her older designs too. that’s when i started really thinking about her music—the vibe, the layers of instruments, the lyrics, the meanings, everything. i got so emotional i literally started tearing up.

maybe it’s because i have the absolute worst fomo. i found ethel in august, around the end of the preacher’s daughter era. when i first discovered her and got into her music, i felt this instant spark, this deep connection to her art, like she was saying things i’d been waiting to hear. and what i think is getting me down is that i missed out on seeing her grow and release the albums that shaped her into the artist she is now. i’m insanely proud of her and just want to celebrate every part of her journey. she pours her heart into her work and deserves all the spotlight she gets, if not more.

i mean, i’m only 14—i was 12 for most of 2022. i just hate joining in the middle of something, feeling like i missed out on so much. i’d see old tumblr and instagram posts from people who were there for PD before it even dropped, celebrating streaming milestones, and i’d scroll through reddit threads filled with lore and theories.

i don’t normally feel this way about artists. i actually haven’t ever felt this way before. she’s the first artist i genuinely wish i’d been there for from the start. the fact that i wasn’t makes me feel a little upset, almost unworthy of listening now, like i missed being part of something truly special.

anyways… hayden’s work is so rich and beautifully crafted, not just with PD but across all her albums, EPs, and singles. every piece is incredibly thought out. she has such an extraordinary mind and such a beautiful way with words, and there isn’t a single song by her that i don’t love with everything in me. i absolutely cannot wait to see what she does with perverts.

may i vent a bit here? is that a yes. OK so JJK as a fandom and series as a whole has given me insane FOMO ever since i got into the anime last year, and even that was because of FOMO. but reading mangas are so brainstaking, difficult for me, i get tired for staring at a screen, in the same position, losing my attention span and getting distracted by looking stuff up for context- i couldn't ever fully finish it past the culling game arc. and now I'm sitting here in anxiety pondering if i should binge about 60 CHAPTERS, or give up and simply read the latest chapter when it comes out regardless and cry. either way im still grieving everything about this series, but i hate this culture of having to be caught up non-stop. how do all my discord homies do it??? Quinny, as someone older than me, please spare me some words of wisdom. I you're someone who def can. 🙏🤙

I’ll be honest, I think leak culture/weekly releases definitely ruins the experience for a lot of major series. I’ve seen a shit ton of anime (over 600, if I don’t keep track I forget 🧍🏻‍♀️) from being a fan for so long. Jujutsu Kaisen is the first one I’ve tried to keep up to date with weekly and it is STRESSFUL. (This is in part due to Gege but I digress) The worst part is if you try and stay on social media popular series will get spoiled for you. It is inevitable.

All that said should you force yourself to binge 60 chapters or just read the final one? In my opinion… just the final one. Before I’m crucified let me expand on this. For ME early culling game was the last genuinely good arc. It felt well thought out, some new interesting characters while keeping in the older ones we loved. It kinda went downhill from there.

If you want to just see how it ends go for it. You will see some characters change life status (alive to dead or opposite) and may want background or in depth information as to how but Gege doesn’t do that. The world is painfully not fleshed out and he doesn’t lead up to twists with breadcrumbs. They just slap you in the face. Other times there are epic moments or plot twists that don’t matter and will never be mentioned again. There are plot holes, lose ends, and times he directly contradicts himself. Gege himself has stated he wished he had done things differently. Respect for him for admitting that.

TLDR: There were some amazing epic moments in the final 60 chapters but not enough to justify you forcing yourself to read if you aren’t enjoying it. Wait for the anime to come out. There’s no shame in that. Despite the controversy MAPPA had they have done an excellent job adapting JJK. The scenes are all very close to the manga and anything they have added has enhanced the experience for me.

But hey I’m just a random weeb on the internet my opinion doesn’t matter :)

I kind of hate having all these issues like I don’t have any friends I haven’t had the early 20s adult fun lifestyle I don’t have a boyfriend I just want all these milestones but I feel like I’m never going to get them I stay in my room cause it’s the only place I feel safe I feel like my 20s are slipping away from me I don’t have a car I have such bad Fomo to the point of crying a lot I just want what joost has a friend group that I can count on that I can hangout he has the life I want so bad he’s autistic I feel like he has it easier in the social department I’ve never really had these issues until college and my sorority bullying leaving me out i used to be so social not care what other think but now I do I hate being a late bloomer wasting my days always obsessing over joost reading fanfic nothing bad about that I just need to live in the real world but the real world hates me I find myself curse or have horrible karma the funny thing is that I lost a bunch of weight was skinny I thought that would help me it didn’t cause I was the same person I hated people only treated me nice cause of the way I looked but I still had these issues I pray to god to help me but he never does I feel hopeless I’m 25 and i feel my life slipping to me I don’t know what to do anymore

i sometimes genuinely wonder why i never had internalised acephobia or hated myself for being ace. like, i have moments where i just sigh and realise how hard it’ll be for me to find someone who’ll be okay with what i want, but it’s never like to the extent where i want to cry or feel real self-hatred. and i know this is a weird thing to “complain” about, but i see so many people on here talk about how they wish they could be different or are/were disappointed by discovering they’re aspec and it’s just always weird to me how i don’t experience what they experience (maybe this is a form of some very fucked up fomo?). also, i live in an extremely homophobic country, so it’s even more weird how i don’t dislike myself for possibly being somewhat queer in other ways. don’t get me wrong, i’m happy that i don’t hate myself for this, but i’m just thinking what did i do to not cause myself internalised homophobia/acephobia? the only moment of acephobia that i remember having was when i thought that aspec people don’t belong in the lgbtq+ community because of some dumb discourse posts that stumbled upon my feed, but i only thought that because it was very early into me discovering being asexual and i didn’t know as much as i do now. just to clarify, again - i’m not unhappy with this, i’m very thankful that i don’t experience internalised homophobia and/or acephobia. my point is that there were/are so many ways where i could’ve started hating myself by discovering my queerness, but it just.. didn’t happen, i guess. and tbh i sometimes feel like i should hate myself for this, but then i go “wait.. what’s the point? why do i think this way?” and, thankfully, those thoughts go away for some time.

Hi, this is a rant:

Okay boomer this and boomer that but listen, I’ve been reading about certain boomers (namely Liza Minnelli, Judy Garland, Eartha Kitt, and Marilyn Monroe) and these people are fascinating.

Sure, it’s easy to deep dive into wiki pages of people who were inclusive, or at least more-so than their peers, but the the underground golden age of Hollywood that was actually in NYC makes me have an acute fomo that I can’t even explain. Maybe my old soul is twitching.

Liza’s voice is so much like her mother’s (Judy Garland) that it’s eery, haunting, and breathtakingly beautiful. It’s like a ghost just walked into the room.

The way Judy so desperately wanted to be in love and be loved and slept around in an industry that produces more gossip than movies - you go, girl. And then the way these affairs were usually with men already married and she had to have two abortions, just *sigh* this was a person. Not ink on a poster.

Judy dealt with severe anxiety before a performance on Bing Crosby’s talk show, and he outright spoke to the crowd like, Hey. It’s common knowledge that stars are going through things, but let’s treat this singer like a person who needs your excitement and laughter and smiles. Here’s Judy.

And she blossomed. Bing, I hate your name, but that was some good shit.

Marilyn was so ahead of her time, undervalued, under appreciated. How she, and so many other women, Judy included, had to change their names and appearance just to have jobs in the field of their passion.

Never mind all of the abuse and trauma these women grew up with and dealt with on a daily basis from the men in their lives and workplace.

People look at a picture of Marilyn and are like, “Yeah, blond hair and big boobs.”

NO! This woman was a walking mental health disaster that was not her fault, and I want to reach into that poster and hold her and feed her grapes.

“Eartha Kitt? Oh, yeah, Madame Zeroni and Yzma.”

Yes, but NO! This woman got basically exiled out of America for making the First Lady cry (good f*cking riddance) and proceeded to be a smash hit in Europe until the political scene calmed down enough for her to come back to America.

"Liza Minnelli? The old lady who’s losing her marbles?”

SHE !! IS !! OLD !!! And what a privilege to be old when her mother was an addict who accidentally overdosed, and Liza has been dealing with alcoholism and massive health issues her entire life - and surviving.

These women were born in violence, grew up in abuse, and lived and worked in such an awful industry that didn’t deserve them and I’m just *sigh*

Happy Valentine’s Day.

i think i’m meant for little, for few.

i like being selective.

does it sound convincing to you too?

these days i let my mind go places without reigning it back in for criticism. it went to dark places, but then it went back.

sometimes, it came back changed.

i write things i’m afraid to write. then i tuck them away, then write it again, more coherently.

i reread words i adore. cry over it. share them with a selective few. told you i like being selective.

most of the time though, i tuck it away.

every time i yearn for something that was outside of myself, it is the girl with wet and lost eyes

scratch that. my eyes were never wet and lost — they just closed off, shutting me inside myself.

she tucked away what she thought she wanted. tucking away seems to be the theme here.

tucking away seems to be easier than to cry out in vain. until all the places were filled and the wanting spilled everywhere.

wanting is humiliating.

do you even want it? like actually? or is it just a petulant cry of a child rebelling against being told to be good and reasonable.

fuck being good and reasonable.

i don’t want what i think i want. of all the things i inherited from my mother.

FOMO is a strange word. i hate it — call it like it actually is.

jealousy.

ugly thing, isn’t it? that’s why people have to invent an even shittier word for it.

and i’m writing a shitty poem about it. none of it makes sense.

i like jealousy. like writing about it. like reading about it. maybe if i do that enough it will become something outside of myself.

maybe if i do that enough it would feel like passion, or devotion. something interesting.

but until then, i will tuck it away. i’m sorry some of it spilled out. i’ll clean it up later.

like a good and reasonable girl i was taught to be.

Cinderella?

Favorite thing about her?: I love everything about her but I think people overlook how sassy she is and her bite! All of her comments to Lucifer, and the singing bit about Anastasia and Drizella, are so enriching and add a great depth of character. But also, how realistic she is! This was totally erased in that live action, but in the animated version, she gets so FRUSTRATED at times. She even misplaces her anger at the clock and Lucifer in the very opening scenes. We see her fight back to Lady Tremaine and win in certain cases- like when she asserts her right to go to the ball- but we also see it backfire, like when Lady Tremaine gives her more and more chores to do. Just the overall depiction of abuse is so realistic and I think people dislike how close to home it is. Our modern sensibilities call for all female characters to be superheros- look at Rapunzel's hair, Elsa's magic, and Moana's connection with the ocean. No one wants to see the depiction of realistic abuse and how it can wear on someone, or what those family dynamics look like behind closed doors. They want Cinderella to beat up all three women in her household or start an Etsy business or something lol but for all that being said, I still marvel at her strength of character. The fact that she picked herself up and went to the ball after 1) years of abuse, 2) having to assert her right to go in front of three of her abusers, 3) being physically assaulted and having the very clothes violently torn off her body is so??? Like I get social anxiety from going to public places- I can hardly imagine how she must've felt with ALL of those circumstances AND the fact that she didn't even have a chaperon bring her to the ball and I just love Cinderella so much omg I'm not crying, you are

Least favorite thing about her?: This question implies there's something to dislike about Cinderella which is WRONG except if we're talking about the live action, which is literally awful. The live action got her character so wrong and the entire cast of that film went on a press tour bashing the original Cinderella while upholding their own as the feminist approved version and I literally can't even think about it without boiling in rage. Especially because the original Cinderella possesses more of the qualities they claim the 2015 version has and the original lacks. UGH if you ever want to talk about this HMU because I have THOUGHTS

Do I like her movie?: HER MOVIE IS SO GREAT. The music is so unique and I'm obsessed with all the vocal talent. Like, the fact that Lucille Bliss interpreted the words 'Mother, mother, mother' on a written script LIKE THAT is everything. I can't find a single unlikable character though, like everyone brings it from a vocal, characterization, and animation standpoint. Also, it's animated so realistically! Compare Cinderella's thicker waist to any of the Renaissance and post Renaissance princesses and you'll see what I mean. But also, it's just so fun and joyful and lighthearted while also not shying away from addressing and depicting abuse in such a realistic way. Lady Tremaine is actually my favorite villain of all time, to this day, because of how understated but effective she is. UGH I LOVE

Favorite outfit she wears? I ALWAYS loved the pink dress the mice made for her the most as a child! Pink was my favorite color and she had her hair down and lookeD STUNNING. Also the fact that it was a thrift from her mom's is so cute <3 That being said, she literally doesn't have a bad outfit. Her wedding dress is the best one Disney's ever come up with, I don't even need to explain the enchanting quality of her ball gown, the servant dress looks so comfortable and functional, and even the nightdress is flattering to her!

Favorite song from her movie?: The reprises she sings of So This Is Love is hauntingly beautiful. I can literally hear it echoing throughout that hidden staircase on the way to her little attic room.

Favorite animal (or human) friend she has?: I'm sorry but I LOVE Bruno and Major the horse way more than I should. I just love the idea that most people view Cinderella as this ultra glamorous princess and her sidekicks are literally mice, an old bloodhound dog, and a rail thin horse. But, the dog and horse remind me of when we see her with her father, and seeing their fall to grace too serves to give Cinderella a sense of companionship and community and history outside of the mice who she presumably meets later on.

Which trait of her personality do I most see in myself?: Probably her frustration at things that are beyond her control. I also think her FOMO moment of missing the ball and trying to talk herself out of wanting to go before concluding "and it'll be completely wonderful" is so cute. But I also try to get along with people I hate, for the sake of family and things like work, but also end up shading them like Cinderella lol but I think in order to be resilient and live a successful life, you kinda have to roll with the punches the way she did and always believe in the possibility of something wonderful happening and I hope I maintain that ideology as beautifully as does Cinderella

How would I rate her prince?: TOP TIER! Listen, that eye roll he did at the ball is EVERYTHING. Also I love the idea of a prince literally tearing a kingdom apart to find me after a single dance. Plus, with his father being as animated as he is, you KNOW that family is entertaining to marry into. Also, he's a TOTAL hunk (only counting the first movie)

Where does she rank on my top 10 favorite princesses?: TOP TIER AS WELL. Her, Snow White, Aurora, and Ariel are like on a whole other tier for me where they literally exist as my favorite characters of all time and they can't even be categorized as princesses because my love for them extends past any labels.

Put a Disney Princess in my ask and I'll answer!

hq at the outdoor pool [hc]

a/n: i did this instead of posting “a month of sundays” and honestly i’m not even mad about it.

karasuno:

- asahi: definitely wears a speedo. that’s all.

- daichi: wears bright orange boardshorts. slathers on sunscreen before, during, and after being in the pool. literally will make suga throw him the bottle while he’s in the water. like this man does not want to burn. occasionally yells at hinata, kageyama and bokuto for being too loud but then goes and does a  cannonball into a group of kids. 

- suga: totally the type to hang around the shallow end and splash around with the kids. he’d just wade around and get a kick out of them and all of the mom’s would fall for him within the first twenty minutes. probably brings neatly sliced carrots for a snack. wears a hat to avoid burning his scalp. 

- nishinoya: the kid that pretends to drown in hopes of getting the hot lifeguard to give him CPR. the first time it actually worked, but it totally backfired the second time. some rando old man “saved” him instead but noya got right out of there before things escalated. he didn’t go back to the pool for the rest of the summer after that. threw up in the pool once too. they had to drain it and it was closed for a week. 

- tanaka: always screaming. slips on the pool deck and gets yelled at for running. this man will literally dive into the water from anywhere. once he nearly decapitated a kid because he dove in the deep end without looking. he’s about one more annoying shriek away being banned from the place. 

- tsukishima: mans DEFO brings goggles to every pool. definitely. absolutely. hinata thought they were a joke and laughed at him for a solid twenty seconds before tsukki threatened to drown him. he does laps around the perimeter of the pool. purposely splashes water in little kids faces. yells at tadashi for swimming too close.

- tadashi: follow tsukki around the whole time. honestly not a very strong swimmer. literally almost drowned once but he doesn’t like to bring it up. he’s got checkered swim shorts. wears one of those white swim shirts that kinda looks like a wetsuit. kid always has goosebumps too, even if the sun is blazing. like teeth chattering. he does NOT like the water but has serious FOMO so he goes in anyways. 

- hinata: dear god. him and kageyama hold competitions for who can make the biggest splash. they jump in front the diving board, the slide, the side of the deck; anything to try and create some waves. really tried to get asahi to throw him into the air. he thought it would be super sick and create this mega splash but he just ended up looking like a toddler being tossed by a middle-aged man. it was extremely embarrassing. boy probably wears neon boardshorts and has matching flip-flops. 

- kageyama: he almost always wins biggest splash. he also threatens to throw small children off the diving board if they don’t jump fast enough. mans has zero patience with other people, but when it’s his turn he chickens out and then makes some excuse as to why he couldn’t do it. “oh, i got a headache”, “there were too many people in the line, it would’ve taken forever”. he also steals things from the lost and found outside the change rooms; mostly water bottles. 

aobajoshai:

- oikawa: comes extremely prepared. like very. towels and sunscreen and snacks and lots of drinks. only for himself tho; sharing is not caring. he just dips his toes in the water, maybe stands on the steps that lead into the pool, then he gets out and tans for the rest of the time. has boardshorts with flamingos on them. will occasionally splash water on his chest because he thinks it’s ~hot~. it kinda is.

- iwaizumi: he says he doesn’t even like the pool, but this man goes HARD in diving competitions. yanno those little toys that you throw in the deep end and they sink and then you have to go and get them? well yeah, he’s addicted to those. he’s so competitive about it too. made a kid cry once. when he’s not in the water he’s helping tendou fill up bottles to dump on kuroo and oikawa. he says there’s nothing to do at the pool, but he literally is busy the whole time. barks at you to shut up if you comment on the fact. 

- kindaichi: brings a giant green floaty and just drifts around the pool. literally had a nap on it once and burnt his body so bad that he couldn’t sit down for a week without excruciating pain. 

- kyoutani: tries to hold his breath for way longer than humanly possible. passed out once. starts a fight in the change rooms over who gets to use the last shower. threw shampoo in oikawa’s eyes once and temporarily blinded him. pretty sure all the staff is scared of him, and honestly they should be. this man will literally kill you. 

nekoma:

- kuroo: isn’t just acting like the lifeguard, he literally is the lifeguard. kidding, but he wishes he was. literally tests the chlorine levels of the water every time he goes there. him and kenma mostly just hang around the edge and talk. he tells off bokuto and tanaka for nearly beheading kids, but thinks it’s funny. he won’t want to get his hair wet, but tendou will absolutely take every opportunity that he can to dunk that man. 

- kenma: get a feeling that this boy does not like the pool. it’s too loud for him, and the screaming kids (+ tanaka) get on his nerves. he just sits with kuroo and prays that noya will throw up in the water again and then it’ll be drained. he only went because hinata pleaded him to, but the boy ditched him for kags halfway through. 

- yaku: literally spends the whole time bullying lev. told tall boy™ that if he went under the water for too long it would absorb through his ears and his lungs would fill up and he would drown. to everyone else he’s very caring. literally saved a kid from drowning once. stopped a fight between a jackass and a girl that was insecure about her braces. literally soft but not when it comes to lev

- lev: TERRIFIED. thanks to yaku he’s literally scared to go in the water for more than five minutes. mans sits on the edge and dangles his feet over the side. hates when his fingers and toes go all pruny. he likes to go on the pool slide though. constantly slips in the change rooms when showering and confuses the shampoo with soap. 

fukurodani:

-bokuto: this man goes WILD. literally lives at the pool when it’s hot. the king of doing tricks off the diving board. seriously. never ever leaves that board. he’ll push kids over to get to the top first. literally never ever stops shouting. he’s gotten so good at tricks that people will literally pay him to try new things. the lifeguards like to bet on whether or not he’ll make it. ALWAYS has a different pair of boardshorts??? this man has so many clothes for some reason. he also brings a different towel every time. oikawa is jealous but he won’t admit it.

- akaashi: DOES NOT SWIM. can do it but chooses not to. mans would rather just sit in the shade and read a good book. bokuto forces him to film shit and post it all over his socials. the kind of guy that looks mysterious and causes girls to giggle and admire from afar because they think he’s a heartbreaker. 

shiratorizawa:

- ushijima: wears shorts that are way too fucking tight for him. snatches the hot lifeguard away from noya without even knowing it. this man will literally just sit at the bottom of the pool for as long as he can. like takes a huge breath and then sinks to the bottom. he’ll just sit there. like you’ll be swimming and look down and oh! there he is, just sitting criss-cross at the bottom of the fucking swimming pool. tanaka dared hinata to lay beside him, but hinata almost drowned before he even got seated cuz the poor boy couldn’t figure out how to stop floating up to the surface. 

- tendou: he swims with his eyes open like DRILLING into you underwater. tsukki was doing his laps once and tendou was just there like watching. he’s the kinda guy to pull the filters out of the side of the pool and examine what’s inside (literally just bugs and leaves and some plastic cap). drinks the pool water. runs on the deck as well. like sprints. spends most of his time bothering everyone else and freaking out other swimmers. doesn’t shower before getting in the water and doesn’t shower afterwards. probably doesn’t shower period.

- goshiki: always doing tricks. handstands?? you got it. a cartwheel into the water? yep. tried to backflip off of bokuto’s shoulders and got screamed at by the staff? yes yes yes. did a flip off the diving board and bellyflopped so bad that his entire body was red for two weeks? mhm. he always needs an audience though, even if it’s just a few 10 year old kids. his trunks fell down once when he was getting out of the water.

other:

- aone: kids are scared of him. he always looks like he wants to drown somebody, and there was a rumour that he actually did. of course he didn’t. mans doesn’t even really know how to swim. he just paddles around in the shallow end. wishes he was wearing water wings.

- terushima: goes to the pool for the snacks and drinks??? “don’t know, the food just hits different here,” is always his answer. he brings his own speaker and literally starts a disco between the lawn chairs. the staff don’t like him at all, but he buys so much fucking food that literally all their income is from that man. he rarely actually goes in the water. stole someone’s flip-flops once and ended up getting warts.

- atsumu: pulls some random girl up on his shoulders for a chicken fight. went through two phones in three weeks because he takes it in the water with him??? literally like on his phone while swimming. idk, mans just gotta stay updated on the twitter tea. 100% pees in the pool and blames it on kageyama.

- sakusa: does not go to the public pool. ever.

When is the last time you did something truly fun, and what was it? Last Friday, I’d say? Hahaha. Counted down the hours and minutes before the Butter MV drop, celebrating and freaking out with Army when it finally came out, watched the OT7 VLive that happened that afternoon, and streamed the video for nearly 24 hours straight so we could break some records, all of which we ended up achieving. It feels great to stan a group again after being out of the loop for so long lol.

What was the scariest moment of your life? A few men have lunged towards me - just to get attention, I guess? - in the past, while I was just peacefully walking. I always hear them snickering once I’ve flinched, and I always ended up crying once I’ve processed the situation.

If so, what did you do? I had my first sip of alcohol at Kaira’s 18th birthday and I was feeling left out since literally everyone else was drinking. For vaping, Gabie introduced it to me; and for smoking, it was another case of FOMO that made me want to try it out.

Are you watching your weight? No.

Have you ever became really good friends with someone you found online? Yes. Aliyah and I are still friends and I’m glad we’ve been able to maintain our friendship even after mine and Gab’s falling out. It’s a shame the three of us didn’t get to meet in real life though, and it will 100% never happen now. I also used to have a group of Twitter friends back in my wrestling stan days but it’s been a very long time since we’ve gone our separate ways. I have yet to find friends on Army Twitter but I really doubt I would get to build established friendships any time soon because EVERYONE IS SO YOUNG OVER THERE

What is everyone else in your house doing right now? My mom is making dinner while I believe everyone else is just on their phones waiting for the dish to be made.

What is the most money you've ever had at one time? I don’t remember the exact amounts anymore but my mom used to hand me cheques and regularly assign me to pay for me and my sister’s tuition back in grade school and high school, since she had work during the day and didn’t have time to stop by the school herself.

How long do you think it would take you to run a mile? I don’t know but definitely longer than what would be considered a decent duration for a fit person.

Look down. What do you see? I can see my legs but just barely since it’s dark out.

What is a subject that makes you uncomfortable? Topics I don’t know too much about.

What is a subject you can talk on and on about and not get sick of it? BTS, my field, and history.

How about the last person (your last ex)? She’s the same person.

What is the best invention ever invented? The internet.

What is something that needs to be invented? Not a completely new invention but I wish programs that can identify songs for you, like Siri, can be more improved to be able to recognize songs just by humming the tone. So far they can only name songs if you play it clearly for a few seconds, but it can be a hassle if I wanna have access to a certain song but only remember the melody and otherwise have no idea what the lyrics are or who sang them.

Describe your eyes. I don’t think they’re anything special. I don’t count them as a striking feature of mine.

What always makes you burp? Eating quickly. And beer.

What is something you hate doing that most couples do? There isn’t anything.

What's your astrological sign? Taurus.

What are you doing tomorrow? I wanna finally watch the Friends reunion special since I didn’t feel like watching it today. I also have a press release to write for one of my clients – they requested for it Friday and want it by Monday :(

I Warned Myself (Zion Kuwonu Oneshot)

(REQUESTED) Zion imagine where it’s your first time supporting him at the Fomo Tour and you have real bad anxiety so he makes sure your ok by walking hand in hand to the tour bus and looking out for you onstage

“Mmm, baby you look absolutely fire.” Zion twirled you around, assessing your fit for the night. He pressed a kiss to your lips with a hum of delight. “And you’ve got my favorite lip balm on? I already can’t wait to get off stage.” You laughed and wrapped your arms around his waist.

“You are such a dork.” You leaned into his body, loving the warmth he provided. “I am so happy to be here for you though.” You remembered when the FOMO tour first begun and you were counting down the days until you’d join your boyfriend.

“I’m fucking off the wall, Y/N. Seeing my girl in the crowd, screaming for me in public.” He winked at the end of his sentence. You rolled your eyes and smacked his chest.

“You always ruin the sweet moments, cause you too busy being freaky.” He laughed at your comment.

“You love it. You ready to go now?” He walked over to your hotel room door and opened it. You totally forgot about this part. You bit your lip and began to spiral into your thoughts. “Baby? Hey,” Zion walked over to you and began wiping your face with his sleeves. You didn’t even realize you were crying. “ima be out there with you, baby. We’ll get onto the bus together, leave the bus together, and I’ll be looking for you on that stage, remember?”

Zion knew your anxiety could get the best of you when it came to the fans in groups. You had a plan of course ahead of time, because he wouldn’t let you even come out without one.

“I just don’t wanna m-mess up, o-or have them h-hate me.” Zion brought your shaking manicured hands to his lips.

“Nobody hates you, baby. You’ll see, they love you. Sometimes more than they love me.” He laughed with you and pressed his lips to yours once more. He wrapped one arm around your waist and grabbed your hand with his other hand. “We got this.”

-

“Haven’t picked a side yet, hardly sleep, I’ve been goin’ out...” Zion’s shirtless figure made his way over to you on the stage and grabbed your hand as he finished his line. The boys all began their choreo, but Zion stayed put, kneeling to hold your hand through the chorus. The fans began squealing at the action between you two. You could hear them say things like ‘Zion got a baddie!’ ‘Yes, Y/N!’ and you couldn’t help but smile like a crackhead.

“I love you baby!” Zion yelled into the mic as the song ended. He ran back to you and pulled you onto the stage. Your eyes widened at your boyfriend’s actions. “Who loves my baby?!” He asked the crowd. They began cheering once more. You squeezed the life out of Zion’s hand as he took you off the stage with him. He led you into a separate room away from the boys.

“What’d I tell you, baby? I gotchu, and they love the shit outta you.” He lifted your chin up to kiss your sweet lips once more. “I’m definitely ready to taste that some more later, though.”

So a little life update nobody asked for

For the next 4 days I'm going to be at my uni's freshmen camp. For people in my country this usually means 4 days of drinking and partying and crazy activities. Since I'm not somebody who's into those things I have no idea what I was thinking when I paid for my ticket and secured my place. I didn't think the situation through and let fomo dictate my decisions. Now I plan to make the best out of these 4 days and still stay true to myself and avoid alcohol and humiliation. It's going to be burning hot so there's another thing I hate unless I'm on a beach surrounded by ppl who I don't know and will never interact with. This also means I have to miss most of this race week and can only hope I'll be home for quali. (Can you hear my silent cry?) And let's hope I'll be eating normal food and not just salads since being vegan in here equals being worried about catering at most places and you're lucky if they actually cater for you and don't just say 'oh,sorry you have to take care of yourself'. Btw I should be sleeping bc we leave at 7am and it's already 1:16. Ofc, they had to choose a place that's 4 hours away from me. I have to constantly remind myself to be more positive. So here's to making friends, connections, staying true to ourselves and having fun!!!
