T'was the day of Christmas...

ON CHRISTMAS DAY, I was with my friends, in our pj’s, exchanging presents, laughing, and taking pictures. So it went a little something like this...

The weather was ridiculously warm for a Christmas day, I’ve never experienced Christmas without waking up to the blinding light of the snow, falling outside of my window (my heart was crying on the inside). SO instead of moping about how the lack of snow outside, we decided to go on my friend’s roof (it totally made up for it).

Shortly after that, we said goodbye to our friend Erika (cries). Me & Nat continued our journey in the forest, as we took pictures while our hands were literally freezing (it’s ok, priorities am I right?). Taking pictures for no actual reason is what I enjoy most, but I must admit, I was pretty content with the end results!!

Darkness crept up on us, and we actually witnessed a full moon. For some weird reason, I always feel at peace when gazing at a full moon...must be because I’m a night owl.

Later that night, we ate, we laughed, we shared stories, and a number of other random festivities.

As I get older, I come to the realization that moments, stories, and good company are what makes Christmas so special. Special, in the perspective of the person that is experiencing it. Thank you to everyone who made this Christmas Holiday special. x

How did you experience your Christmas holiday?

I HOPE IT WAS WONDERFUL, FILLED WITH JOY, AND HAPPY MOMENTS.

Cheers. x

'I can't wait to be older' - said 10 year old me.

( a ramble of thoughts in my head that I feel the need to share )

(( disclaimer: this is an observation I’ve seen with my own eyes, or that I’ve experienced myself, or that I’ve seen the younger generation do. I don't want to generalize everyone in high school, because I know most of us don’t actually think this way, but yet again, some people do. ))

I remember being like 10 years old in a group with a few of my friends all complaining about how we wished we were older and how great our life is going to be when we reach a certain age blablabla. Now I’m finally around that age, and it’s nowhere near to being perfect (whatever that is). Sure, my life is great in some aspects, but not for the reasons I idealized when I was younger.

I guess it’s becoming more of a recurring thing when you’re younger, to think that your life is going to be amazing when you’re older. And when you’re older, you wish you could go back to the days where nothing really mattered, where everyone was being themselves, and where the biggest problems were tying your shoelaces. (raise your hand if you’ve had this problem)

High School is a museum of people experimenting with their age and testing their ‘limits’. Everyone (mostly) acts or wants to be older. Everyone (mostly) wants to be a certain age to do a certain thing. Everyone (mostly) wants to feel treated like an adult. But what is it like to be an adult? I can’t answer that because I’m not at that point in my life yet.

I think we tend to forget to embrace our youth, and to absorb life as much as possible while we’re young. This sprint to be an adult slows us down more than we think.

I also think there’s a big distinction between being mature for your age & wanting to be older than you actually are, just feel accepted in today’s society, or even to seem somewhat cool.

I guess I’m at a point in my life right now where I don’t understand everyone’s rush to grow up, and I honestly find it quite hard to relate to people who have a bucket list of all the things they must do before high school ends to seem more mature for all the wrong reasons. It’s foreign to me and I don't quite get it.

What exactly are we teaching the next generation? What kind of example are we if we tend to ignore our youth and jump right into all things that comes with time and experience?

What do you think?

STRESSED OUT.

Preview // Erika.

hello hello hello!

Haven't posted much lately because school has been so dbdshbhfbvhdfvbfhb. But hi, I am back. 

Today I was working on a project (woah big surprise), but this one was actually kind of decent. Me & my friend Erika had to make a short film, and it actually didn't turn out so bad. While we shot our film, I took a few pictures here and there, and they also didn't turn out so bad so WOO for productivity.

So I present to you; Behind the scenes ft Erika. 

FACT 1: "I have a tiny scar on my forehead and a birthmark on my elbow."

FACT 2: I have a lotus tattoo on my back + 13 piercings. 

FACT 2: "I love music"

Personal opinion: This girl is a storyteller. 

More to come with this gem. x
