y'know for some reason it's so easy to get lost in romanticized fantasies about future everyday life but so difficult to romanticize my current everyday life. they aren't even that much different in setting. they both occur in academia (the romanticized story is about me being a professor doing important biomedical research and teaching engaging classes with a side of rom com/wholesome family drama lol), just that the future is so idealized, it doesn't feel real anymore, it just feels like escapism.
the thing is, i like it when things feel real. but romance and reality never seem to be able to coexist in my brain, even if i want them to.
without spending a dime or wasting time on non-priorities (e.g. my photography skills are shite so it takes too long to get good shots), how do you romanticize your life without losing sight of reality?
"oh how do i romanticize my life when it's so ugly" first of all shut up. nobody gives a fuck if your school is ugly or your room is ugly. in movies, is every room or every school or every character or every life perfect and lovely and well put together? no. because there's beauty in being imperfect and ugly and you fail to realize that. you're never gonna be happy and you're never gonna succeed in romanticizing your life if you can't accept the ugly and still decide to find beauty in it. romanticizing your life isn't only about making it pretty but it's also about loving it as it is. loving your tattered school uniform or loving your knock knees or loving your messed up life or loving your sadness or loving your grieving or loving your loneliness or loving the dirt in your room. it's about loving everything because how can you find beauty in it without loving it first?
