The winter sunlight warming up the pages of books is the kind of light I want to lock up in a glass jar and take everywhere I go.

Hello there! sorry to bother you, I was wondering If I can print your gorgeous art here */post/642237905335664640 for my wall and show it sometimes in my ig posts. I'll credit you of course :)

hi! yes you can, thank you for asking!

there’s no need to give credit if it’s appearing on your wall in ig posts (also i don’t link my instagram on my tumblr.) as a psa: you never need to credit me in printing out or saving my art for personal reasons. the only cases where i wouldn’t allow it is:

1) if you use it for commercial purposes (ie selling it)

2) if you repost the image as your own or on another site (if it appears in the background of a post, not the direct image-i don’t mind!)

go ahead & if you need any clarifications feel free to ask me! thank you again :)

Black coffee, Blazer and Oscar Wilde for Chaotic Academia Asks !

Black coffee: if you could be with anyone right now, who would it be?

Anne Brontë. So I could tell her that she is the superior Brontë sister (No will not elaborate, lol)

Blazer: what is your favorite piece of clothing?

One is my Slytherin hoodie and the other is a sweater I bought when I was in Oxford as a memory of the city I love more than any other I have seen.

Oscar Wilde: who is your favorite author?

Question number 1 any bookworm should never get lol. I honestly can’t choose just one so forgive me for naming more. Firstly, I love reading classic literature a lot and my favorite to read is Dostoyevsky. Being inside the dark depths of his mind is a pleasure like no other. Second is Murakami because I found my love for contemporary literature again with him. I love not being able to tell the difference between reality and fantasy in his work as well. It’s so monoton and melancholic in a way that makes one find themselves at the border between sanity and insanity and between life and death. It speaks to me on different levels. For the last pick I will choose Agatha Christie. Simply because I enjoy reading crime/mystery books and who does it better than the queen herself? Her characters are such brilliant protagonists and her writing never feels outdated.

Thank you very much for asking! I enjoyed that one :)

Icarus and Titans !!

icarus - how would you describe yourself?

ahhh okay let’s see. i guess i’d say i’m.... ambitious, i have so so many things i want to be able to do in my life even though at this point i have no clue how to get to them, but to me having these goals help keep me moving forward! 🙌🏻

i’m also a very creative person. i love words and prose and aesthetics and i really try to find the art in everything i see and do. i also always make it a point to pay attention to the smallest of details to have that sense of order. i’m talkative (??) haha i always try to be friendly and welcoming to people i meet!

lastly, i’d say i’m very observant, i secretly notice everything (literally everything i’m not even kidding sometimes i don’t even mean to do it) even if i don’t necessarily voice it out, and people often get surprised when i point things out they wouldn’t expect me to even pay attention to 👀

titans - if you could go anywhere in time, when would you want to go? 

the future. definitely. i’ve always been the type to feel so anxious about the future, and i would literally give anything to get even just a glimpse of it—to give myself a little motivation because i tend to lose it sometimes.

one movie i love so much is disney’s meet the robinsons, and every time i feel so down i watch it and i would seriously sacrifice anything (lol) to experience what nick robinson did. must be cool to see your future like that, even for just a day.

thank you, gilly!! lots of love xx

Jan 31, 2021.

It's been a while! I hope everyone is doing great and gearing up well for the upcoming month! Yes, I've been really inactive lately and I do feel bad about it but I don't know why this month I hardly found any motivation to create content and when I found that it was stressing me out, I decided to take it easy.

January has so far been one of the most eventful months I can remember! My new year kicked off with me failing my math periodical test (not that I didn't expect that) and I discontinued the winter studyblr challenge after mid-January which I felt really guilty about.

But then, looking back at how the month went, I'm so happy with how everything turned out to be! So many good things happened and I thougt it won't be fair if I don't share it with you all. ❤️

Well, I was the happiest person ever when at the midnight hour of New Year's Eve, I hit the publish button of the epilogue of the book I was writing on wattpad since Jan 01, 2020! After putting out the acknowledgements, I received an overwhelming amount of love from the readers I'm so grateful for!

We got closer than ever with our apartment mates that we had at least four small terrace parties in this cold where we cracked jokes and had tasty dinners!

I also reunited with a friend who went to another state ten years ago and so we had two sleepovers to celebrate our meet! Yep, we watched horror movies and danced because why not?

My closest ever friend whom I have known for the past twelve years finally went to college in another state and she spent two nights at our place before leaving! She lent me that big stack of books and gifted the sketchpad as well!

If it wasn't for her, I might not have drawn Jungkook out of an afternoon whim! I felt so touched while drawing after so many years! I had no idea that he will reconnect me with yet another passion of mine. What would I do without him?

Also, I finally received my personalized bookmark! Isn't it gorgeous?

Remember the crush I used to have study dates with? Well, she's my girlfriend now!! Unbelievable, I know.

Also, I remained consistent with journaling every day! I hope that at least this resolution makes it to the end of this year.

And yeah, I finished level 10 of TTMIK!? The certificate is beautiful, and I just had to let you all know about this!

I finished reading Sanjeev Sanyal's Land of the Seven Rivers recommended by none other than the amazing @gaaaandaaaalf herself! I really didn't think I'd be able to finish it by January-end but I was able to and it felt so nice! I really really thank you, c! If it wasn't for you, I don't know how long it would have taken for me to come to love the genre of non-fiction!

And yes! Our offline school started this month, although mainly for the practical exam purposes. It felt great, honestly. We have half days and our exams begin from second of February, in school.

So yeah, that was a really long post, hehe. I'm not sure if I will be as active here, but I will try my best to post whenever I can because I miss my friends and all those who shower my with red-hearted notes. 🥺
