There'll be a moment when you realise you're 27 when yesterday you were just 17; and you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away and your life got divided into before and afters. The fury of youth will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore, hangouts will become reunions and mom's burnt pie will become the best food you ever had. And I know on some days you won't be able to show anything of those 10 years but I hope you remember to breathe, and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you go out in the sun and live a little, because tomorrow is 37. An excerpt from The Flesh I Burned

Today, I honestly didn't feel like studying. I felt disappointed in myself because the test results got announced and I feel like I failed myself.
However I'm choosing not to dwell on that feeling. I studied quite a bit today and I didn't let my emotions hold me back. I'm pms-ing hard af too. >_<

What's meant for you will be all yours at the end. The constellations are in your favour, so my little star-bright, what are you worried about?
And then all of a sudden, it feels like January again, and you're all alone in that blanket of yours, dreaming of sunsets, stardust and peace.
" What is a person, if not the marks they leave behind? "
- the invisible life of Addie LaRue by V.E Schwab
I seek for the universe yet it does not seek me back; a travesty, it called me.
The moon weeped the stars alive, and then me. It weeped me alive.
So mon amour, I am not just any travesty, but the moon's.
I am the moon's travesty.
But in a solitary life, there are rare moments when another soul dips near yours, as stars once a year brush the earth. Such a constellation was he to me.
- Madeline Miller,Β Circe
How are you feeling? Zachary asks. βLike Iβm losing my mind but in a slow, achingly beautiful sort of way.
- Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea
Memories are a curse; I want to remember you no more.
is wanting to vibe under wisteria with my chai and a book too much to ask for?
