We keep saying that we are ¨entering our villain era¨. In reality we are choosing to finally be the main character in our story and choose ourselves over others who write us the way they want us to be to fit their narrative.

Others will keep you as a side character in their lives to feel better about themselves and when you choose yourself, you'll be written as the villain. But what they don't know is that they are putting you on a pedestal because you're living rent free in their heads.

Don't give the pen to others, you write your own story because it's yours. If you don't, you will always fade in the background. Romanticize your life and enjoy the spotlight, your show is about to start and everyone is free to watch.

You are the main character after all even if you're the villain in someone's story, but we don't talk about them because we don't give importance to side characters :) you know everyone in this reality wants to be you.

Classics student’s guide to romanticising november

While I personally love november, I understand why some people can’t really always appreciate it; especially where I live, it gets real gray around this time, when autumn still lingers and Christmas and winter are quite not here yet. A liminal space. Here are some little tips, habits, things from wellness to whatever that I like to enjoy in november when I’m not cooped up in the library battling with the attic verb system. :)

Coffee to wake you up in the morning, maybe another one at lunch if your short nights sleep is still lingering; different teas throughout the day to keep you warm from the inside as the weather gets chillier each passing day

a bowl of (warm) porridge with your favorite toppings in the morning, either prepared at home or ordered at a cafe with your friend

Dark red nails, preferably long, preferably with small metallic accents (I prefer gold and bronze, silver works very well too)

Seasonal fruits and vegetables; pomegranates! Persephone’s journey to Hades has once again taken place.

Adding a little bit of darkness to your eyes, it’s your pick whether that’s with kayal, smudged eyeliner, eyeshadow or just a gracious layer of mascara; but remember to not rub your eyes when you stayed too late at the library translating Catullus’ latin poetry! Alternatively, just rock those dark underyes baby

November is the month of poets, artists, thinkers, lovers and wanderers, you know what they say. Write, draw, think, love, wander! I keep a diary where I try to write everyday. Try to find small pleasures in the mundane and write them down. Beauty is omnipresent. I also have been trying to sketch more when I don’t have the energy nor the time to complete complex illustrations and paintings. Small but meaningful.

Pretty candles, scented or unscented, perhaps each one lit as an honoring to a god, goddess, daimon or your lares; in the colder months I like to light a candle in honor of Vesta/Hestia and ask her to keep my apartment warm

Preparing for winter by slowly switching to more thicker and moisturizing skin- and haircare products. Do this as you run out of one product, don’t give in to overconsumption, be mindful with what you buy and what you put on your skin and hair

Remember to move your body. Whether this is walking, running, stretching, strength-training, pilates… the options are endless and the choice is yours! Even little movement can help you fight that seasonal depression.

Big scarves, long jackets, leather gloves. Gives you an aura of mystery and keeps you protected from the weather

These are just some of my favorite things at this time. If you read through all of this I’d really love to hear if you have your own sacred little rituals around this time of the year. Thank you for being here, remember to be kind to yourself and others, and speak up for those whose voices are being silenced. Go make your novembers mythical🖤

Valete,

Mauve

Have you ever gotten everything you ever wanted?

No. But I once got very close.

Dear Future Husband,

I don't know if you actually exist but if you do, then I don't understand where you are, when will you meet me, and why is it taking so long for you to meet me.

I know you're hustling and working hard so that you can be stable before you meet me, but why is it taking so long, on top of that, these random men that I just talk to are so weird, and I'm so done with them now.

You better come fast. Like real quick.

Your future wife.

"To see a world in a grain of sand

And a heaven in a wild flower,

Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,

And eternity in an hour. [...]"
