Cause of suffering: pushtayni chutiyapa
University life is just man I need to do my dishes. Man I should go and do my dishes. I’ll eat after I’ve washed my dishes. Oh sorry I’ll be out in a sec just gotta wash my dishes. Exam worth 50% of the total grade. Oops forgot to do my dishes. I’ll just do my dishes real quick—
The horrors are unending and so are the dishes

i just need to hold on until the trees start blooming again
Coming back home is just an endless realisation that I am my father's daughter, which sounds ominous but simply entails
- Walking around with my hands behind my back
- Taking a second to soak in the sun
- Coming to the kitchen just to snack right before dinner while mother scolds me
- Being an absolute meanie (trash talk as love language)
Anaïs Nin, from The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 5: 1947-1955
[Text ID: I could not live in any of the worlds offered to me — the world of my parents, the world of war, the world of politics. I had to create a world of my own, like a climate, a country, an atmosphere in which I could breathe, reign, and recreate myself when destroyed by living. That, I believe, is the reason for every work of art.]

The damage
Ouch
“do you know where you’ll be headed in 5 years?” no. but i do know about themes and motifs. and friendship. and putting garlic on everything
i don’t know. i’m barely a person. i just want to be kind and hold someone’s hand. eat an ice cream cone. stare at the lake. feel the sun on my skin. lay in the grass. run through a sprinkler. it’s so easy to forget life is supposed to feel like a deep breath and not a gasp
