In Wonderland

Student / Friend / Lover / Artist / Total Nerd / Dreamer / Talker / Creator / Listener / Insomniac / Dweeb I'm nerdy and adorably awkward. It's been said that I don't fail, I just I occasionally miss success with dignity and grace. I know I'm not perfect, and I will never claim to be but I have ideas that are worth listening to and a soul that's worth getting to know. @TijanaDarling

Smile. You'll feel better. Smile wider. You'll feel much better. Pull back skin and expose your grinning skull. See how much better you feel?

It bothers me that no one has the patience to deal with someone who is just sad.

Moths

Anxiety makes me feel like I’m full of moths. When you get excited for something, you get happy little butterflies, but the internal fluttering of anxiety is frantic and terrible. It’s in your stomach, making you sick. It’s in your throat, making it hard to breathe. It’s in your head, making it impossible to focus.

It’s exhausting.

A Problem With Perfection...

I am a self conscious perfectionist who procrastinates. It is sort of a contradiction, and makes it hard to accomplish anything. I told myself, this year was the year of change. This was the year to get shit accomplished. Unfortunately, I feel like I am not progressing in a way I should be. Upon evaluating myself, I have discovered why. I need things perfect, and sometimes have little faith in my ability to do things perfect. So, to prevent myself from feeling like a failure I just simply give up on whatever project I have in mind. That's just silly right? Yes, it is. Because in the long run I still end feeling like a failure. 

I mean, for goodness sakes I bought a wreck this journal and the sole purpose of that book is to wreck it, to let go of perfection and just do what the pages tell you. Have I done this yet? No. Want to know why? Because of to worried about wrecking it perfectly. That's not even a logical thought. SO, my point is, it's time to let go of perfection. It's time to get over the nonsense and be ok with whatever it is I do, whether it is perfect or not. I honestly think this wreck this journal will be good for me. 

I'm doing two pages today, so I will let you know how it feels.
