ahahaha so I dreamt that I was at a party and Dan was in a corner losing his mind because Phil was talking to other people and ignoring him and I tried to soothe him but he didn't want me to interact with him because I'm a fan

Autumn is slowly creeping up on us, and so is the beginning of the new school year; finding motivation in a repetitive day-to-day life can be challenging, so why not try to romanticize it a little? <3

Make Pinterest boards to visualize what you would like your school year to look like.

Have a proper morning routine. Great way to reduce stress! I should start sleeping more hahaha

Bring a snack to school. So you don't get hungry in class and lose focus.

Aesthetic study ambience. There are very nice streamers on twitch and other platforms which you can study with.

Get some new school supplies. Something that matches your aesthetic! :)

Make playlists with songs that help you focus. I like lofi or classical music, depending on my mood.

Try not to fall behind. Do your homework in time so the work doesn't pile up.

School is not a fashion show? Well, now it is.

Bring a book to school. My favourites are police novels.

Make your bed every morning before school. Then, your room will feel a lot calmer when you get home.

Drop fake friends. Let's be real; toxic friends ruin the vibe.

Start a journal. You can write about your day at school.

Pretend you're in a movie. I always imagined myself at Gilmore Girls show; it helped me a lot <3

Light Candles while studying. It creates a super cosy atmosphere.

Study in small cafes and enjoy a tea or coffee. vibes.

Join a club so you can meet new people and make friends. I still looking for one that matches my vibe.

Take notes in class. Taking aesthetically pleasing notes helped me a lot and can be so much fun!

Add jewellery and small accessories to your outfit. In case you wear a uniform :)

Watch shows that motivate you. Like Gilmore Girls or Gossip Girl!

Study dates. Meet up with your friends and study as a group.

Take more pictures. I love taking candid photos through out the day!

I might make a part two if I get some more ideas but as always, feel free to add more suggestions in the comments! <3

the feminine urge to mourn lost cultures and empires. for your heart to ache every time you remember how many languages no longer have speakers, how many ruins are abandoned, how many people lived happy lives before you. to feel melancholy and longing every time you study history - of this world or another, even fictional. to want to play a role in history, but in the same time fear dying, passing, being forgotten like those thousands before you.

I cannot stress enough how much you do not have to change your life in order to romanticise it. Yes, work on yourself, practise self care, do fun things, put yourself out there. But you do not have to have the picture perfect life in order to be the main character of your own story. My house is pretty fucking boring, ugly at points, and my entire goddamn family is there at all times. but then I was like actually, this is just like in little women where they have all these chaotic sisters in one place and they have the average home for their time. I grew up a total loser, got bullied, have autistic girl trauma, etc. aren’t all the cool main characters social outcasts anyways? Romanticisation isn’t a change or a lifestyle, it’s just a different lense.

these violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die; like fire and powder, which, as they kiss, consume.
