But who are you ?

It would be hypocritical from me to say i don’t follow trends, quite the opposite some of them can really be interesting and i “follow” them but i have no desire to fit in. Everyday i embrace my soul, my heart and my mind because it took me years to be the Me of today and as an individual it’s totally normal to be unique in my own way. I am unapologetically myself, no matter how much “trouble” it gets me with people i don’t care. To be put in a box just to fit in or follow the “rules” was never something that i tolerated nor could handle. I value self reliance and resent depending on someone I am selective when it comes to socialising because i prefer being alone than having small talk I question everything to be convinced before i accept it or do it I am assertive, i express my needs, opinions and boundaries even if it means leading to a conflict with someone I dont care about social pressure, i believe anyone can achieve anything at any age I don’t care about approval I am always open to learn new stuff and never afraid to be seen as “uneducated“ during the process I don’t wanna copy. I am me, if i wanna read a kid’a book i will, if i wanna paint a tomato i will, if i wanna learn Russian i will, if i wanna wear a blazer with sweatpants because I think it looks good ON ME i WILL, me is ME and you is YOU. Etc…

BEING WHO YOU ARE

been thinking a lot about self-awareness lately and what makes me “me.” I’m always trying to figure out how to transform my inner critic to real personal growth without shame. being honest and not editing myself to any given room was one of the first things I began to tackle in therapy. existing among other humans is an ongoing give and take, and Being Who You Are without apology while treating others with respect is really all you need to do in this life. learning how to be kind and true, and finding the good amongst so much bad and then sharing it with others makes the world go ‘round

it’s how you carry yourself, not how you look

I realized a few years ago that my desire and attempts to look a certain way were failing. It wasn’t realistic, and it was making me feel inauthentic, empty, and unhappy. Cameras capture every thing, so it’s easy to dwell on imperfections. But that’s not how people experience you. It’s not how others think about you or see you. Imagine how critical you are of yourself and imagine someone else being that critical of another person. You’d think there’s something wrong with them! Who focuses on a person’s looks that much! Get a life you misery! That’s how we treat ourselves. There’s an epidemic happening where everyone wants and is going out and getting the same face. The same body. It’s so boring. Your “flaws”—as society has taught you to think about them—are not flaws. They make you unique. Memorable. They make you beautiful. To love yourself is active resistance in an economy fueled by obsession over flaws and unhappiness. One of the actors in White Lotus, Aimee Lou Woods has some objectively flawed teeth. But that’s what makes her so unique, so special. So cute! They make her attractive because she’s unapologetic about them. Embracing my big goofy smile and big ears and crinkled crows feet makes me feel comfortable in my own skin. That feeling is so powerful. It spreads to other parts of your life and attracts people to you. It’s how you carry yourself, how you move in the world, engage with other people— not how you look.

HAMMER BY LORDE

Another banger by Lorde. Literally a great start for her next album and I can’t wait for more.

NETTLES BY ETHEL CAIN

A song that hurts the most when you most expect it, Hayden’s latest release embodies what it’s like to lose someone even if they aren’t gone and the production and vocals really something to behold. Take the time to reflect on the lyrics and to explore more on the lore of Ethel.

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD

From start to finish, this movie was a wild ride. I’ve read the entire series of comics after I’ve watched the movie on my ipod touch. It changed the way I looked and felt about the world because why live in a world that’s bland and boring when it could be fun and full of whimsy (lol). From the amount of vfx and action to the song choices (i owe you my life black sheep brie larson edition) this will always be a movie i can call home to.
