Just a girl who loves dark academia, living in the bright tropics

Fuck dark academia I'm reading my pretentious novels in a hawaiian shirt listening to Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffett

Putting on a silk floral robe and some red lipstick so you can be aesthetically sad (single tear slides down your perfect cheek as you gaze at yourself in your mirror) instead of normal person sad (ugly crying into your pillow)

this wave of guava that embraces me in the backyard this melody of sugar cane that makes me shut my eyes this mellow coolness of the avocado on my tongue this terrible delight of salt water about my shoulders

Sun dappling through forest branches, cool breeze on the air, listening to birds and the buzz of giant black bees

Well, this certainly isn’t the chilly northeastern autumn I’m used to, but the skies are cloudier, the days marginally cooler, and we have been getting wonderfully dramatic thunderstorms.
