Born to be a character written by Jane Austen, with "You have bewitched me body and soul. And I love … I love … I love you." Forced to live up as a character written by dostovesky, miserable, touch starved and touch repulsed.

“I am the pulse of late nights, smoke curling in the air, a book in one hand and laughter in the other, lost in the rhythm of living and dreaming.”

Lattes, essays, and libraries on a rainy day.

Finals may be creeping up on me, but for just a moment, everything is ok.

So my state is going to the Supreme Court to ask if they can remove books from their library.

As an English major and a reader/writer, this is disgusting. Why are we removing books for? They’re for learning and entertainment. And they want to take that away?

What is wrong with people?

Got these gems today

[deadlypoetacademia]

the feminine, the masculine, the artistic urge to stare at the paintings until they make you hallucinate, to read poems until they seep inside your soul, to write such words that hold the power to shatter a person's heart and fill the void at the same time.

[professionalintrovert]

The beautiful thing about going alone is that every triumph is yours, every consequence of every mistake is yours, everything that you have to figure out is on you. That’s a really powerful experience. And sometimes it is beautiful and positive and exciting, and sometimes it's negative and hard and lonely. I wanted that. I welcomed that.
