[larks-purrr]

sunflower, waves, pine, pink eyeshadow, rose, clouds, silk, crossed fingers

sunflower: if there was a door that went to a city that was a good representation of you, what city would it be and would you go through the door?So out of all places I’ve personally been to, probably Umeå, Sweden- very north, quieter but still things to do, very close to nature. This is prob just personal bias tbh, and not necessarily a good representation of me. Just a city that would fit my living needs better than where I’m at now.

waves: is there one music genre you can’t listen to? blues and I think r&b?????? there’s just some that are way too repetitive and don’t hold my attention at all so I tend not to listen to those

pine: if you could only smell one scent for the rest of your life, what would it be?freshly rained in forest in late spring

pink eyeshadow: pasta or pizza? both

rosè: what’s your opinion on shyness? I’m a shy awkward gazelle and it makes talking to people hard and making friends even harder, so I’m not rly for it bc it just sucks. I wish I could be more confident and not worry so much about what I’m going to tell people and how I’m gonna start conversations and all that. In other people, shyness kinda makes me feel like I’m being overbearing? and too loud? or coming on too strongly?? so just makes me worry moretldr; shyness just makes my anxiety act up

silk: list songs you listen to for a jam my hype playlist

crossed fingers: using no negative words, describe your hair. thick, currently p fucking short and in an undercut, super soft, an expression of my want for androgyny I guess?

[larks-purrr]

blush, dusty rose, fuchsia, magenta, punch, raspberry, sherbet, strawberry, wild rose

blush: peanut butter or jelly?jam

dusty rose: bath or shower?shower, very rarely bath

fuchsia: pancakes or waffles?crepes or waffles

magenta: hot or iced?hot coffee, iced tea

punch: soup or salad?both is good

raspberry: sweater or crop top?sweater (bc I’m insecure about my tum and sweaters are p comfy)

sherbet: movie or tv show?both, kinda just depends what I feel like watching tbh

strawberry: bike or drive?drive on roads, bike on park trails

wild rose: fruit or vegetables?don’t make me choose ;;

yello

yellow: if you could have any view from your bedroom window what would you choose? what’s your favorite thing to do on a sunny day? what do you consider lucky? what made you smile today? what makes you happy? 

A forest, maybe some forests on mountains, maybe a lake or a river- there’s gotta be trees though, a lot of em

Depends where I am, but I used to love biking to my fave spot by a creek at the park and read fanfic/books there

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk what I consider lucky, maybe that I have such great friends that stick by me even when I isolate myself even further?

ppl’s reactions to my edit of “you know Uldren had to do it im” photoshop edit made me smile & laugh a lot

You do <3, my friends do, playing video games and succeeding in pvp does, a good hike through a forest/park (not an overglorified lawn park, I mean like, natural shit- brambles, leaves, dead branches, green stuff everywhere), my plants do, my rats do

honey (♡), lace, flowers!!

honey: what’s your favorite memory you made this year? Honestly, anything with you, Emily, and the gaymers squad has been goddamn amazing and better than any memories I’ve made here by myself since I moved. Like, the couple weeks you were here was amazing, the time Emily came over for a few days was wonderful, all the times I’ve teared up from laughing hard because of our friends on our gaymers discord channel. Spending those couple days with you at your house and shopping to decorate your room was really fucking nice too.

lace: what’s your favorite piece of clothing? My red/blue flannel, my Destiny Hunter pup tank top, my D.Va tank top, and my skinny jeans

flowers: what’s your favorite outdoor activity?Horseback riding and biking, tho I’ve always been fond of climbing trees and rocks and stuff. Also love to go creek splashing either on horseback or on foot

10 Books

Tagged: By no one, I just saw this and thought it was cool.

Rules: In a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you. Tag [ten] friends, including me, so I’ll see your list. Make sure you let your friends know you’ve tagged them.

1.) Outlander by Diana Gabaldon: A WW II nurse is sent back in time to the 1740's and finds herself involved with both the Jacobite uprisings and a young Scottish highlander named Jamie Fraser. It's wonderfully researched and I stayed up til the early hours of the morning reading this 800+ page book in one sitting. It's honest and I have such a soft spot for love stories, really.

“Jamie, I had found out by accident a few days previously, had never mastered the art of winking one eye. Instead, he blinked solemnly, like a large red owl.”

2.) The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein: A family's story told through the voice and eyes of their dog, Enzo who has always desired to be human. My Dad, the tough old cowboy that he is, bawled like a baby when he read it, containing equal parts humor and philosophy. What faith I have and some of the better parts of me can be attributed to this book.

“To separate oneself from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter everyday. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to.”

3.) You Can Go Home Again by Gene Logsdon: Another book that both my Dad and I treasure greatly. The biography of a contrary farmer, and ex-monk, reflecting on life and his longing--and eventual return to the farming life that he was born into.

"If the whole country [where I live] were covered with fresh fallen snow and all the tracks of my wanderings over it were imprinted there...my crisscrossing footsteps would be so numerous as to pack the snow solid."

4.) Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier: The Odyssey retelling of a Civil War defector and his journey home across the mountains. Frazier is one of my favorite authors, and this is set in the heart of Appalachia, my own home. He knows his subject, and the people that inhabit that hollows and mountainsides. He writes beautifully and with a languid sort of prose that I'd associate with an old master. My heart aches reading some of his passages, I know so well what he describes.

“He tried to name which of the deadly seven might apply, and when he failed he decided to append an eighth, regret.”

5.) The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher: The up's and down's, and twists and turns of a wizard detective in Chicago. I credit this series in no small part to getting me through loosing my home a few years back. Butcher is skilled at threading his stories together at just the right pace and making everything click together at the end. The protagonist, Harry Dresden, is probably one of my favorite fictional characters. Ever.

“Holy shit," I breathed. "Hellhounds." "Harry," Michael said sternly. "You know I hate it when you swear." "You're right. Sorry. Holy shit," I breathed, "heckhounds.”

6.) The Tale of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski: This book fucked me up. I'll say that right off the bat, it is down right disconcerting and uncomfortable for me to read because it is so close to how I grew up. Edgar Sawtelle is a dog breeder's son and mute, possessed of a natural connection to dogs and a sharp intellect. I grew up a dog breeder's daughter and an only child as well, and there are passages that feel drawn from my own memories. I don't like reading it that often, but it's still a powerful book.

7.) The Last Summer (Of You and Me) by Ann Brashares: Another...disconcerting book. It makes you think, I mulled this book over for hours and days after I read it, and I'm still not quite sure what to think. Well written, and emotionally raw. I want to say it's almost a female version of Catcher in the Rye, embodying the same loss, scrambling for explanations in a changing world. 

8.) The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch: Just a damn good, swash-buckling, snark filled novel. Thieves. Need I say more?

“I've got kids that enjoy stealing. I've got kids that don't think about stealing one way or the other, and I've got kids that just tolerate stealing because they know they've got nothing else to do. But nobody--and I mean nobody--has ever been hungry for it like this boy. If he had a bloody gash across his throat and a physiker was trying to sew it up, Lamora would steal the needle and thread and die laughing. He...steals too much.”

9.) Animal Dreams by Babara Kingsolver: I'd be amiss if I didn't include at least one of Kingsolver's books on this list, and this being the first I've read, I thought it fit. I didn't want to like this book particularly, the narrator is pessimistic and tough and not all that likeable, but I found myself reading on, drawn into this woman's world, as dark as she made it out to be. But there's light in it too, and Kingsolver breathes life into the desert, a strange place filled with inarguably human characters.

10.) Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg: What's not to like? It's rich in history, humor, there's great food and also some lesbians.
