" So absurd and fleeting is our passage through this world that the only thing that reassures me is the awareness of having been authentic of being the person most similar to myself that I could have imagined. "

- Frida Kahlo

These movies genuinely bring me happiness. Yes I’m 24 still watching d-coms. But if that’s what brings me joy, then let me be myself. I’ve always have people saying to me, you’re too old for this or that. That’s part of the reason why I love the triplets, they are themselves. No matter what, they still stay true to who they are. As long as I’m not hurting anyone, just let me be me. That’s all I’m asking…sorry about the vent. I’m dyslexic and I believe that’s why I still have imagination/child like spirt. It’s what makes me able to write/edit. I don’t want to lose this part of my myself. People have just been knocking me down lately and I’m tired of it. I just want to be accepted and loved for who I am, not shunned or judged. But I get judged everyday for being myself and it sucks.

Shitty photos but I wore my battle vest for the third time ever.

Little bit of backstory but I made this during December last year and never wore it because some of the patches on my jacket were "not appropriate" and my dad was "disappointed" with what I wrote on them, so I got really discouraged from wearing it. I wanted to wear it to my first day of College but he saw it and told me I wasn't allowed to wear it.

But today I said fuck it. It's been several months and I put so much fucking effort into this and I've never even worn it. So I did. And I felt awesome all day

The patches I have on there are

- "Fuck the system"

- "Dead men can't cat call"

- "cowabunga dudes"

- TMNT

- "the earth is our mother"

- "punks not dead"

- "If you aren't angry you aren't paying attention"

- "people before profit"

- "Punks respect pronouns"

- a spiderweb

- "we all bleed the same colour"

(feel free to borrow any of the sayings if you would like)

At this point this is becoming my main Tumblr account so I'll be texting a lot here, I want to use my newfound freedom as a way to learn to really be myself, so please don't mind me

This person hates socks, they are overstimulating for me, this also goes for pants and long sleeves [I'll only wear these if the attire is required for a gathering or anything formal]

This person feels the need to stim whenever they are stressed, anxious or excited.

This person loves world building and writing lore

This person has very questionable comfort characters in terms of the Sonic franchise

[Mephiles and Infinite, Dark Gaia and Metal Sonic as well]

This person also has a favorite scrunchie she would use whenever she needs to pump herself up, she calls the the "Mode-Switch" or "Alter Form" as she's normally very VERY shy, so doing this makes her feel more "adventurous" and "badass"

I think I'm done for now

Uhhhh lemme do my Mephyfan180 coded shenanigans and find a Mephiles the Dark gif

ENJOY THE AUTHORS PERSONAL LORE DUMP!!~

Reclaiming‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ My Inner Diva: A Soft Rebirth in Real Time

✧

There is a moment during your healing journey when you stop apologizing for the space you take up. You discontinue the practice of shrinking yourself so that others may be comfortable. You finally see your reflection and understand that the version of you that was kept in secret is the very one that you were always meant to become.

I have been, lately, moving into that place — gradually and deliberately — the diva in me could not be more thrilled with her return.

Personal development is not always gentle and poetic. Sometimes it is uncomfortable. Sometimes it is messy. And sometimes it is about deciding to choose yourself in those places where you used to lower your light. It is doing no without feeling guilty, yes without being afraid, and saying I deserve better without giving an explanation.

Development is understanding that the version of you that was silent, that tolerated too much, and that doubted their own brilliance was in fact doing their best with what they knew. But now you have better knowledge. Now you know your value. And knowing your value changes everything.

Besides, the diva in me. Not the bad kind. Not arrogance or ego. I mean the diva who is a beacon of self-respect. The one that purposeful walks. The one which accidentally has main character energy. The one that loves deeply but refuses to settle. She is not new. She is your original programming. She has been muted, told to be less, told to be patient, told to be nice. But she is the part of me that has always known who I am. Getting back to her is not going back. It is reclaiming.

Being more in touch with my diva tendencies means that I do the following: talk my truth even when it trembles, guard my peace as if it were sacrosanct, wear what fits the life I desire, enter rooms as if I were a member, be selective with my energy, and keep in mind that I deserve reciprocity, not crumbs. It is the drama of becoming that one embraces. The flare. The softness. The confidence. The unapologetic sparkle that life tried to tone down but never erased.

Inner growth plus diva energy is alignment. The journey isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about shedding everything that isn’t you so the real you can breathe again. It’s honoring your boundaries, loving your flaws, showing up as the version of yourself who isn’t afraid to shine, and letting your inner diva be a compass — stylish, intuitive, confident, and lovingly ruthless when necessary.

So here I am — growing, glowing, softening, strengthening. Finding beauty in the parts of me that used to scare me. Learning to respect my own rhythm. Leading with compassion without abandoning my standards.

Here’s to the rebirth. Here’s to the growth. Here’s to the return of the diva — healed, centered, and finally ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌home.

I’m not trying to be perfect. I’m trying to be real. And the real me is a little softer now, a little wiser, a little louder in the ways that matter, and a whole lot more in touch with her divine diva energy.
