I went on hike today with two of my friends. We’re in Arkansas for 2 days and it’s been a good time. I dragged us through the devil’s trails and ran off a few times for moments of solitude. I love being outside, but I am a runner. But I like it because I get to be an alone for a while. sometimes my friends worry but I just like existing solo sometimes.
Back to the hole, my friends didn’t want me to go in the hole bc they said I would become one of the dead people. the kind you see on tiktok where they track how the body was crushed when they fell down a too tight hole. I walked past it the first time but I thought about it the whole 20 minutes past it. When we walked back, I ran back to it and went in.

⛰️If I got nothing going on and it's nice out in the summer or early/mid fall, there's a pretty good chance I'm going on a hike.
It feels good to get tf away from a lot of the noise and bs, and to instead touch grass, take in nature, and be present with your surroundings as well as yourself. I love solo hikes but I also enjoy going with a close friend or two for some company. And ofc I enjoy the exercise and challenge/accomplishment! It's pretty sick when you're doing a loop trail and you look back mid-hike to be like "damn I did all that!" The endorphins are flowing, I feel good, and nothing hits like a nice meal and a beer after a hike. I'm also biased having lived close to the White Mountains my whole life lol

After my first movie alone a few years ago, my first concert alone last year, yesterday I experienced my first solo hiking experience in the Alpes (south of France). And I couldn’t recommend it enough, it was awesome, my own rhythm, some music I love, no sweat shame and a way to just empty my brain. Like I thought I was gonna reflect on my life and shit but actually I just was enjoying my day and taking photos.

My friend bought me a shirt that says “I <3 Adrianne Lenker” and I wore it today. I felt a little silly wearing it, but it was fun for the day. A lady at a shop thought it said “I love adrenaline seekers”. I let her believe it

Few days late, but I messaged my best friend’s brother for the first time to tell him happy pie day. I went to school with them both growing up but we rarely interacted, now he’s a super-genius & I find him so interesting. I’ve seen him once since we were both adults and his brain is so cool. I’m a lesbian- no hetero intentions- but he is fascinating. We’re going to Boston to stay with him for a week in the summer. Oh- and there’s a photo of my friend and her brother in pie and 3.14 costumes bc their mom is a teacher and they were very cute nerds. They’re both geniuses, kinda cool af
Jealous of his celebratory pie tho
