Perks of Waking Up Alone

On being a smart, independent woman who don't need no man.

i observe men in silence, how they leave plates on dining room tables, how they slam doors, how they take up whole couch with legs sprawled and lounging arms, how they do not filter speech, too confident, too loud. voices always violent, everything a war.

what’s cooler than being cool?

using your turn signal

delete the people that make you feel bad about yourself from your life, unfollow them, delete their numbers, erase their texts, find happier people, pet a dog, watch a silly movie, forget about them, you’re better off

Make it happen. Shock everyone.

Why I Need Feminism

I've been internally contemplating why I started this blog. Then I realized, I need to stand on my own a bit more. Don't get me wrong, I don't rely on guys. In the eyes of my friends, I'm somewhat put together. The guys I have been seeing, are not.

I need feminism because it's not okay for a guy to leave you hanging while he's out with another girl. It's not okay for a guy to systematically plan exactly what you're doing but not make any decisions beyond that. It's not okay to act like you're perfectly fine when you're trying your best to hold it together for the sake of appearances.

I need feminism because falling for the charming guy sucks. I'm tired of the mixed signals he brings and falling prey to his "game." This is a 'game' I don't want to learn because no one should be treated like they're a chess piece.

I need feminism because not pursuing my MRS degree should be alright. I don't want to feel guilty for wanting my own career or doing what I love instead of getting drunk in some fraternity house basement. I shouldn't be interrogated the moment I walk through the door about who I'm dating (or most likely not dating).

But most of all, I need feminism because these thoughts shouldn't be going through my head. If I had a Y chromosome, these thoughts would be irrelevant and unnecessary. Because I should have enough confidence in myself to succeed without having to rely on a man. So this blog is about having the confidence to wake up alone and proving I'm an independent woman who don't need no man.

WHAT

[starship-strfck]

okay but I’m actually really scared that the lid of the drink is going to come off or something

[thetuffthorston-blog]

//the way this works is that it stops about 2 inches above the top (the hole only big enough to go that far without ripping) so you  wouldn’t have to worry about the lid coming off!

it’s really a brilliant idea. it cuts down on the amount of materials used,  and space it takes up. all around good engineering.

[busket]

from the looks of it it might be recycled materials too? if not then it should be.

[ajcrowlor]

it frees up your other hand from having to carry your drink but also doesn’t shove the cold drink next to the warm food

brilliant!
