"the despair of an idealism that you can't attain" aaaaaaaah, i am so dead
"I am eternally, devastatingly romantic, and I thought people would see it because 'romantic' doesn't mean sugary' It's dark and tormented - the furor of passion, the despair of an idealism that you can't attain."
- Catherine Breillat
I have never been a person who had any big plans for my 20s. Honestly, my plans have always been about life in general, like I should ultimately become this, I should have someone who loves me and I should travel a lot but no goal like I should achieve this particular thing in my 20s. Although now when I am really in this stage of my life I have realised how much I have to do and how much I am doing. It's really a life changing phase, you are no more a kid and you are not even a responsible adult. Your time to make 'n' number of mistakes is over but yet you are clueless about the best decisions for yourself in more than 99% of occasions. You have people to support you but you don't have people to walk with you on difficult paths.
I am in my 20s unaware of what is right and what is wrong. Adulting at my own pace usually seems slower than others. Deep down I know I am growing, I appreciate how far I have come but on the other end it doesn't seem enough. I have learnt a lot, I am different from what I was in school. I am stronger but yet more fragile than before. I am confident yet afraid of others' perception about me as a whole. I am surrounded by people yet alone for long. I want to be loved romantically yet I am afraid of commitment. It's complicated but still clear. Maybe 20s is about being everything, being a super hero and a weakling together. It's about feeling everything so that ultimately you know what you want to be. It's about living different lives with single soul. It's about experimenting everything so that in your 30s you know which experiment had the most successful results.
It doesn't need any planning, it's just about living in the moment, going on a road trip without a map but with hope of reaching the destination. It can be a successful and joyful ride, it can be a painful and rough ride but in the end where ever you reach will be far away from where you started and would be indeed more lovelier than what you plan.

You need motivation to study? Let me introduce you to spiteful studying. When you study a subject to prove someone wrong. When you spend hours writing up notes so that you can get that grade and smile smugly at the teacher who predicted you a lower grade. Find someone to prove wrong, it can be a teacher, a parent, friend or just to prove society that you’re so much more capable then they say you are!
Trust me, it works.
A brilliant artisan Creates always something exuberant. She doesn't need emeralds, diamonds, pearls or sapphires. She has more quirks, more ideas, that the more they rejoice her the more they inspire her.
concept: in our victorian house we’re gonna have ugly tile in our small kitchen. our bedroom is going to have a slanted ceiling because it’s in the attic. we won’t have central air but we’re going to have radiator heaters in all the rooms. in the summer we will open the windows because it’s too warm. we’re going to have ivy on the side of house and an unkept garden with long grass. that’s okay though. we prefer it like that.
Update: I am writing a fan fiction of Romeo and Juliet for my friend, because she has to submit it to her creative writing class and doesn’t have a time for it.
Italy post n. one
I haven't found God in Vatican, but at least I found The Hot Priests calendar and bought it.
Wine night with my friends. Maybe will organize bacchanal later idk
A man died and left me his books
All thirteen-year-old girls deserve(d) better
|The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides|
I think It's a gift that I understand this book, that I feel what the girls in it felt. The book show the tragedy of being a woman through eyes of boys (malegaze) who are trying to understand but only you, if you were in the girls skin at least once, will get.
THOUGHTS ON:
,,THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY"
Yeah, that's it.
It's very gay.
And I enjoyed it.
Maybe It would even look slightly aesthetic if it wasn't taken on android
Lmao 🤣
“what’s your writing process” i put a pathetic guy in a blender and blend blend blend
Writers when they complain to their friend of how hard the writing process is.
Their friend: Hold on, this whole operation was your idea
😩🤧

longing for a touch, longing to be held in someone's arms, without a rush, without time and space between you two
what is it if not the greatest pleasure and the most vicious curse of the human kind
"Reading poetry is like undressing before a bath. You don't undress out of fear that your clothes will become wet. You undress because you want the water to touch you. You want to completely immerse yourself in the feeling of the water and to emerge anew."

I just came from outside. It's raining, the garden looks peaceful dressed in the gentle tones of green.
I feel the raindrops on my face, my back, my hands while I'm picking strawberries.
Things are not perfect but this moment is great and so so so grounding.
Neither it felt wrong nor right , It was all grey between black and white .........

Trying to study amid self-conflicts and doubts. I'm so depressed and worried about my future.
Books that I bought for May. I've already had three of them on my tablet, and since I liked them, I decided to buy their paperbacks. Siddhartha and Kitchen are the ones that I'll be reading for the first time. I bought some stuff from Daiso as well, as there was a sale going on there.
After all the shopping and fulfilling the reason I came to another city — to take the entrance exam — I'm now back at the hotel, drinking green tea to digest all the heavy food that's hard to avoid while traveling. I'm also writing a few things in my pocket diary. After this, I'll study a bit, maybe some English grammar and vocabulary. I have one more test tomorrow.
Analyzing past papers to get a sense of what to expect in the entrance exam amid the tensions throughout the nation.
Fruits and English grammar
