being a girl is wanting to save money but also wanting your hair done, nails done, gym membership, skincare, cute outfits, and a little treat every day 😭
Some people are just living. They’re not dating anyone. They have no crush. They scroll from app to app with no one to talk to. They go to work, come back home, eat, sleep, and go to work again the next day.
I’m at that weird age where every younger person I meet makes me realize how much l've aged, and every older person I meet makes me realize I'm still a baby.
Please raise your daughters to have hobbies, interests, and academics...so when they become adults and middle-aged women they have something to talk about besides a man.
Idk how to explain it but the Yasmin, Lorenzo and Aidan triangle storyline is reminding me of an AI fruits video where she wants to escape to her true love #LoveIsland
turns out, reading voraciously, moving your body, loving people without keeping score, protecting your solitude, chasing nothing but your own growth, and occasionally staying out too late with people who make you laugh until it hurts is not a bad way to build a life.
My "Roman Empire is the realization that my life is a lottery win. Somewhere in Sudan, Pålestine, iran, Afghanistan, Iraq or Congo, there is a boy smarter than me. He is more disciplined, more resilient, and holds more potential in his single finger than I do in my entire career.
The only difference? I am siting in a train and he is sting in the rubble of his dreams.
My "bad days" are his wildest dreams.
My "burnout" is a luxury he can't afford because his only job is staying alive.
It's geographical luck and it's a haunting injustice that we all refuse to acknowledge and look away
sekarang ngerti knp banyak orang bilang kangen jaman sekolah atau kuliah tuh krn kita sm temen2 kita ada di fase yg sama. mau gimana keadaannya kita gk ngerasa sendirian.
adulting feels so lonely, semua orang sibuk sm hidupnya sendiri. fasenya beda, prioritasnya jg.
Everyone talks about male loneliness epidemic but no one talks about the hot, successful and smart girl who can’t find suitable partner cus dating in this day and age is equivalent to an involuntary check in at the mental hospital.
Romance itself is dying because of illiteracy. When you read letters from the Civil War era, men were shockingly lyrical because they had heads full of poetry. Literacy fuels passion. Beauty, wisdom, empathy, passion are vanishing from the world because people don’t read.
The most underrated act of kindness is simply letting people be. Let them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something you don't quite understand. Everyone has something that lights them up, let them shine, even if it's not your thing.
