entry 21, on a Monday.
You know what’s really cool about Leap Day? Yeah, it kind of sucks for people were born on this day who are really into birthdays, but. Friend. We get an extra recorded day on this earth every four years. Do you know how much you can do in a day?! (The answer is A LOT. I’m sure you knew that though.) I’m already alarmed at how quickly the spring semester is passing by (spring break?! what?!) and every day, I have more and more regrets of not saying “yes” to more things and finishing work quickly and asking more questions. So yeah. You gotta carpe the crap out of the diem, or something to that effect. I think our buddy Ralph (Waldo Emerson) says it best:
“Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety. Finish every day and be done with it.You have done what you could.Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in.Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day;begin it well and serenely, with too high a spiritto be cumbered with your old nonsense. This new day is too dear,with its hopes and invitations,to waste a moment on the yesterdays.”
So take this midterm week by storm, yes, but remember that this is the life you’re living. Life isn’t just about your career or tests or whatever. No matter what you do today and this week though, I believe in you. I am rooting for you while we’re on this big spinning ball of life and love that is Earth. Here’s a tune for ya https://open.spotify.com/track/6vxHp3CDNo0afgKGp2yi1Eand I wish you all the peace and love the world can offer.
entry 22, on a Tuesday.
“There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes “What the hell is water?” Bonjour friend, Spring Break is so close. I can feel it, you can feel it — but alas, we still have things to do, people to see and all of that fun stuff. So often — I cannot speak for everyone, though, but bear with me — I think that we can find ourselves in a bubble. Sometimes they are bubbles of our own making and our passions take a hold of us with ferocity as we tear through life. Other times, though, we end up within these bubbles, smushed within the constructs that, at this age, our society deems appropriate; we find ourselves buried under tests, homework, and expectations. Like I said before, this life that we have — we’re living it right now, and we have to carpe the crap out of the diem. There are some nights where I look at myself in the mirror, and seeing bloodshot eyes and what seems to be the weariness of the world in my face, and I am reminded that there is something to be said about being aware of where we are in life. I’m getting my education, I don’t live at home anymore, but all of this is so I can do right by others in any and every way I can, and with the knowledge that there is so much more to life than one can discover at nineteen years old, let alone in one lifetime. As you go forth and do what you do best, strive for greatness, but remember the young fish. Remind yourself of where you are, who you are, and know what water is. No matter what, I believe in you. I am rooting for you while we’re on this amazing planet that is Earth. Here’s a tune for you https://open.spotify.com/track/2yj5wWvw5Lz6HwEBbRLKKLand I wish you all the peace and love the world can offer.
entry 24, on a Thursday.
Hi. The snow keeps falling, I’ve been up for way too long, and I am PUMPED. (#supporttheoxfordcomma) Anyways. When I woke up, I had a completely different idea of what I was going to say…but then an orgo midterm happened and I forgot. I was annoyed at my typical scatterbrained self because I was so excited. After I got back to my room, though, I caught a glimpse of a poster I had with a Dalí painting. It reminded me of this funny little saying by the man himself: “Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure - that of being Salvador Dali.” It sounds super pompous at first, but then I thought about it. I may not have a lot of traits that I like, or there may be traits others have that I wish I did, but doggone it, I’m in a good place in life. I get to say good morning to my lovely friends and study at a great place, and all of the experiences I’ve had for nineteen years have been mushed up into who I am now, and that applies to you too. Sure, it would be cool to be someone like Dalí or the president or an actor, but then you’d never know you — the world would never know you. I would never know you, and I’m glad that’s not true. There are some people who are extremely comfortable in their skin, and on the other side of the spectrum, there are some people who wish that they could just disappear, and I, this random ball of energy and hopeful positivity, am here to tell you that no matter how you feel, it is VALID, but I hope you know that the world is all the better that you’re in it. And that’s really something. I hope something — big or small — makes you jump for joy today, and remember that I am rooting for you in this colorful, ever-changing world. No matter what you do today, I believe in you! I wish you all of the peace and love the world can offer. Have a tune (it applies to EVERYONE, not just girls. But anyways: https://open.spotify.com/track/35THgVT9h3X5UTqthKkr4d) You’re going to have an amazing day.
entry 25, on a Friday.
It stopped snowing! Friday is here! The sun is shining, and even though I’ve taken the most L’s I think I’ve taken in a very long time — read: the week has almost been weep-worthy — I am SO happy to be alive. As we near the end of the week and the beginning of spring break, I recall this time in my life last year: I was waiting to hear back from colleges and just moving through high school. I was nowhere in the realm of positivity that I am now. I had no urge to try to be, because I thought it would’ve been pretty futile because I just cared about school and what my own interests were. Here we are though, a year later, after meeting some of the most beautiful souls I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and learning more about myself than I ever thought I would. I have you to thank for that. Thank YOU for being a part of my life and on this journey where I have been able to push myself to be a oddball sphere of energy and joy. Thank you for putting up with my messages and listening to me. The main point of these messages is to try to spread as much love and positivity as possible, especially in the mornings when we really need it, but it has been as much of a joy for me as it (hopefully) has been for you. I guess, somewhere down the line, I decided to stop staying in this imaginary house I created. I climbed up onto the roof of that house, looked at the stars, and decided that there was so much more to life than I could possibly imagine. The point of these messages — and I hope it shows — was to show you guys just a little glimpse of the stars. “If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I’ll bet they’d live a lot differently.” As I sign off for a while, I hope you feel the sun shining and I hope it lifts your spirits to the highest high. As always, I am rooting for you in this mysterious and beautiful world, I believe in you, and I wish you all of the peace and love the world can offer. Have a tune, and thanks for letting me show you the stars. https://open.spotify.com/track/79vzYy9U65EYo9dXvlwKlG
entry 35, on a Tuesday.
Greetings, you beautiful tropical fish. I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend (: As we know (and as I’ve said before because you know I tend to repeat myself), the world has some scary shit going on. Violence, hatred — you name it, it goes on, and it’s perpetuated by a chunk of humanity. Amidst all of that, though, I find myself hopeful for the state of the world because of the courage that still exists in the world. There’s this misconception that courage is some grand trait that exists on its own, that some people are born with it, that some have more of it, or that some don’t have any at all. There’s a misconception that courage is only manifested in events like taking a bullet for someone or going to war, coming out to someone or standing against the man in the face of persecution. Like all the (sometimes cringe-worthy) lines in all those blockbuster Hollywood movies, I’m here to tell you that courage really is just the strength to do or be something in SPITE of fear. You don’t need spectacle to be brave. Like the leaps of faith one can make, like the concept of carpe diem, like the tiny decision to say hello to someone and give them a smile…courage looks different on everyone. I strongly believe that YOU have courage. Maybe you already think you do, maybe you don’t, but to be a student, to venture and discover who you are, (to have befriended me because I’m a menace), to be a good human being in this whirlwind of a time…that takes courage. You are brave. You have the heart of a lion (the figurative lion, because actual lions are just large, languid house cats). You have strength that deserves to be acknowledged, applauded and respected. And so, my dear courageous friend, I hope you take this week on with that courage inside of you. Do what you do, be who you are, and I hope you get some sunshine. Here’s a tune: https://open.spotify.com/track/6mKDt8rKQrrmDUXgoRD71h. I wish you all of the peace and love the world has to offer, because you’re going to have a wonderful day.
entry 48, on a Monday.
Hello hello, It’s a great day to be alive, don’t you think? (I think so.) My sleep-deprived brain has just reminded me that I’m just a few weeks away from being a sophomore in college. Guys. I’m getting old. Time is moving. Water is wet. The Pope is Catholic. AHHH. But anyways. My roommate and I registered for classes this morning. (It was probably the first time in a while that she beat the sunrise.) She was incredibly stressed, and I almost felt inclined to feel the same way, but I think people often forget that, at our age, we have a lot more time to do the things that we’re interested in than we think. We’re past the age of prodigies, of kids’ menus, of being able to deny that we have enough heart, courage and intelligence to change the world in our own profound way, but we’re still so very young in this old world. The Anne of Green Gables of the world, the Peter Pans…there’s a reason why they inspire so many people, and it’s because even though people yearn for 18, for 21, for adulthood, there’s so much to be found in each and every day. We don’t need to necessarily grow up to find what we need, so take that walk. That paper can wait for twenty minutes. Have a conversation, because the fifteen minutes it may take could change your life. Don’t think that there is one thing that we need to get done. I’m not saying that the “now now now” mentality is bad, because honestly, when you’re on a roll, you’re on a ROLL. But there’s so much time, friend. So much. I leave you with a tune (https://open.spotify.com/track/5kuFCKfGMFsBenmPfMB3cw) and I bid you a wonderful wonderful day and a wonderful week. I wish you all of the peace, love, and laughter the world can offer you. Go out and kick ass like I know you can. And hey, it’s your life — no pressure.
#cow! #omg #DOES THAT MACHINE SAY HAPPYCOW ON IT #OMGGGG #ded of cute #video
yes that does indeed say happycow. so. there have been A TON of studies on cows and grooming. the general summary: cows really like to be clean; they’re MUCH happier that way. if you don’t provide them a brush or something like that, they’ll use walls or fences to scratch against, possibly hurting themselves in the process.
but more to the point grooming is a way they calm themselves down, too. similar studies have found that it’s the first thing they do after being freed when they’ve been restrained.
which leads to brushes like the one above, or ones like this (one of my favourite cow photos ever):
cows: anxious and fussy but much happier when able to do self-care. SOUNDS FAMILIAR TO ME
THE POOR BABY GOT BRUSHED AWAY BY IT AT THE BEGINNING I LOVE COWS
Spots I can spend ages looking at this. There’s so much detail and you always find something going on.. I really like the pattern the dots make all together.
Thermochromic table by Jay Watson
imagine banging someone on that table
imagine being home alone and seeing imprints on that table
noooooo stop
Imagine having a friend sit at that table for a long while, but when they get up there’s no imprints at all.
What if you got up after trying to console a crying friend, and found that you had no imprints… and they were crying because they missed you?
Focus on what makes you happy. Drink more water. Use your 24 hours to constantly grow and glo. Practice meditation. Remove shit friends. Cherish the good people you've been blessed with. Eat healthy. Exercise your body and mind. Continue to learn about yourself. Love God.
