The world is ending. Just book the trip. Honestly. Just book it. Book it so that there’s something to look forward to. Book it so that there’s something to hope for. Book it and don’t look back.
i'm goated in the art of procrastinating / holding off / waiting for the right time to take a vacation or do that thing i've wanted to do for ages.
today i locked it down, and i cannot recommend doing that enough.
BUY THE FLIGHT… the tickets only become more expensiverrr! I always loosely plan travel in my head, choose the dates I would want to go, look at flights, lodging, tiktoks (rip😢), and finally close all the tabs and say I’ll frfr buy it later…. But later never comes but you know what does come, the date I chose for the trip and I’m just sitting at home saying I need to travel more.
i have friends for coffee, friends for late nights on the town, friends for smoking weed and playing smash bros, friends for long walks, friends for long talks it’s not that i compartmentalise, it’s just that i meet my friends where they’re at, and that seems to work for us
Go to the gig. Dance by yourself. Maybe you’ll make a friend, but not having someone there with you shouldn’t stop you from enjoying good music and connecting with an artist you love. Stand in the front. No one behind you matters. The night is yours, if you take it. Go to the movies alone. Go to cafes alone. Take yourself out on dates. Go to the bookshop and buy something pretentious and wanky. Sit in a crowded bar reading about Sylvia Plath’s fig tree or Plato’s Cave. Don’t believe that you need to be holding someone’s hand to enjoy the sunset. The sunset is just as golden when you drink it in alone.
