🏳️‍🌈Overly analytical eldritch with too many thoughts and too little time. Creative writer. If I’m not at a concert I’m probably analyzing something.
Funny how once you’re treated for something that was crippling you, you realize how bad things were before the treatment

Knowing how your friends perceive you will always be more beautiful (and honest) than how yourself. Puts a lot of things in perspective.

I have never felt happier than when I actually stopped and decided live my life than just exist within it.

Lived today by going to a concert by myself like I used to back home. A treat well deserved.

Roots Away From Home
Ever since I moved to a metropolitan middle-of-nowhere (i.e. the Midwest), I have felt more grounded than I have ever felt in my home state.

So last night I learned that the fastest way for my brain to reject English is to binge watch k-dramas (The Glory) for 3hrs and do 30mins of korean lessons afterwards. Took almost an hour to process English again😅
