some people may freak out, but to me it's just a sign that I'm experiencing the privilege that is aging (not to say that I'm old or something lol). but when I look at "imperfections" like skin texture, fine lines, and now my grey hair, I just think about how they're just a sign I've lived, and I'm so happy to have lived as long as I've been able to so far. I can't wait to see how I change throughout my life.

my knees now ache regularly. I’m more sentimental about things and have began documenting a lot more of my life - photo albums/scrapbooking, journaling, keeping lil objects, etc. I’m obsessive about the quality of my sleep. my body is screaming that I’m running out of time to reproduce, despite having no actual desire for children. I see through the bullshit, no longer fit the naive category.

I was bullied a lot for my eye color as a kid (because me having very dark brown hair and very dark brown eyes made me look "evil", apparently) and, naturally, began to dislike them. but as I've gotten out of school and away from people who put me down, I've realized how insane it is to bully someone over their eye and hair color and grown to love the color of my eyes. I mean, they may be dark but there's nothing wrong with that. and I can take pretty pictures of my eyes too, I just have to blind myself and almost stare into the sun to do so lol

recently, when I wake up in the morning and have time to kill, I've been spending a bit of time reading before or after I get myself ready to go about the day instead of sitting on my phone when I first wake up. I feel like it helps clear my mind for the day and it feels nice to not immediately scroll when I wake up like I used to

"yap" about the things that interest you all you want; enjoy your hobbies and pour your heart into them, stop worrying about if what you're into is "cringe"; if your friends don't like your hobbies/interests and put you down for enjoying them, find people that will; surround yourself with people you love who love you back and you will be so much happier than the people that are so quick to put others down for pursuing their happiness
