a long hello & a short goodbye

TL;DR - i'll be back in the future (though i don't know when) and until then, this blog will be archived.

❤️this is also your cue to unfollow me! please don't worry about offending me or anything like that. in fact, i'm actively asking you to do it haha! i know all too well the sadness of having so many inactive blogs on your following list❤️

💜hellow everyone! how've y'all been? it's been pretty quiet around here, hasn't it? i think i'm way overdue for an explanation and a proper goodbye so here it is!💜

💜i'll keep this short, but simply put, i finished my undergrad a while back and am now pursuing my masters before heading into the 9 to 5 gig forever😆

💜this also has to do in part with the after-effects of the pandemic, which is actually what impacted me the most and the reason why i had to go away. long story short, a lot of processes and things that would happen smoothly in your average academic year were disrupted exactly as i finished my final semester. suffice to say, i haven't had much time to make my usual content (or any content at all, for that matter🥶)

💜couple this with changing interests, just growing up in general and having to make some sacrifices. also tumblr becoming so...hyper-monetized for some reason :/

💜but it's all been worth it because i'm finally discovering my professional interests & place in this world after a long battle with depression and getting into the university that i wanted was the cherry on top!

💜so what does this mean for my blog? i've thought about it for a good while and the best option for me right now is to archive it. i've made a lot of content that i'm very proud of and worked very hard on so i have no intention of deleting it ever.

💜to all my lovely followers (who stuck around all this while ilysm), amazing moots (i miss u kayla) and everyone i've interacted with here, thank you for being a part of one of the best times of my life! i will forever cherish the memories we made and i wish you all only the best in life~~

💜~may you live long, find your happiness and remember to be kind~💜

love, thea

2022 is nearly over and 2023 is about to be here in any minute. It has been a year and I am honestly ready to head into a brand new year. But before we do that, I want to shout out some amazing friends and creators I have made on this little place called tumblr. Everyone is special and amazing to me, so if I miss you I promise I love you.

hey everyone <3

can’t believe 2022 is coming to an end! so much has happened in my life in just this one year! i wrote final exams for 3 semesters in this year alone! i completed a year on this site. i read a lot of books because of tumblr recommendations and made edits for some of the books i loved. i also met a lot of lovely people this year and am so excited for all the amazing people i’m going to meet next year.

this is an appreciation post for all my current mutuals. i love you all so much and you all made 2022 a better experience by being there anytime i needed you all. thank you for cheering me up when i was feeling low or was feeling stressed because of exams. thanks for bearing with me when i was obsessing over yet another fictional character. i love seeing each one of you on my dash and love talking to you here or on discord. it’s crazy how much you mean to me, people on the net <3

i love each and everyone of you and am so thankful that i get to be a part of your beautiful lives, even if we haven’t spoken much (or at all). wishing you all a very happy new year and hoping you all have an amazing year ahead, that treats you with kindness and love.

yours, nivi <3

Kayla

Hi -

This is Kayla’s wife, Jillian. I am so sorry to have to tell you all that Kayla passed away during her surgery on July 31. I will include the link below to her obituary which includes the link to the donation we have set up to Nationwide Children’s Hospital where Kayla spent a lot of her time there until she was 18.

I wish I could tell you something about Kayla that you don’t all know but I know Tumblr was her home away from home. You knew she was a nerd and she loved comics, music and most of all - ALL OF YOU. 

I have decided to leave this blog open and active. After all, she made some amazing gifs and it doesn’t feel right to delete her holy ground.

Feel free to reach out, share a story about Kayla and keep her in your heart along with her parents and I. 

Stay safe out there on the internet. <3

⚜⚜happy diwali to the ones who⚜⚜

can’t stand the noise of firecrackers/don’t burst them

don’t have a huge family to celebrate it with

don’t get gifts and money and new dresses

can’t eat the sweets because of dietary restrictions

are spending this season away from loved ones

don’t have anyone to celebrate it with

⚜you matter. you are not forgotten. you are seen. you are not alone. your anxiety deserves a quiet celebration, your family size does not matter, you are the best gift and the shiniest clothing on the rack, your presence is the light of so many people’s lives.⚜
