Notes"Two February’s ago, all I wanted to do was sleep. I was anchored to my bed with the sadness I was letting myself drown in. Now, I daydream about surviving on 3 hours of sleep, I dread going to bed, I keep my eyes open as long as I can. My heart sinks when the sun sets, I crave daylight; I’ve fallen in love with being alive."Madisen Kuhn (via cigarattes)

NotesAnonymous asked: How many followers do you have on tumblr?
Why does something so minute and pointless even matter in the grand scheme of things?
P.S. Even if I wanted to tell you, I couldn’t, because I don’t even know where to look for my follower count, haha

NotesAnonymous asked: What do you think matters in life? Very big question but I'm curious to know. x
I think I want to slightly change that question.
What do you think matters in your life? (I’m no one to say what matters in anyone else’s life apart from mine)
In my life, I matter. Me. It sounds selfish and it doesn’t fit the whole ‘down to earth’ ideology, but what I used to go wrong with, was that I thought being down to earth meant I let everyone before myself. Even the ones that trampled all over me. I used to say family and friends too, but then you realise that you’re born into the world as a one-man army and you leave like it too. No one, not your family or friends, have lived through the exact experiences as you. No one knows you better than yourself. This is why I think I matter most in life than anything or anyone. My happiness, my dreams, my goals. Nothing else. Period.
I can do all things through Christ, my Lord, who strengthens me.

Anonymous asked: Hey, you posted it on your blog so I thought you'd say something :p. To return to long jump after a potential career-ending injury. Yay :D!
oh no, i think i’ve just realised this isn’t my friend who i thought it was, woops! forgive me pls psl pls
ah, well idk ok so basically the decision was to slowly but surely remove myself from social media (which if u knw me, is a huge decision bc i like to think myself as a, hm, a “social butterfly” ahahah) it frustrates me when i don’t knw wht’s going on around me as i’m incredibly nosy and like to butt into people’s lives but i think i realised yesterday tht all tht stuff doesn’t matter. it really doesn’t. a huge shoutout to 3 idiots for the inspiration (man, however many times i watch that movie, it rlly doesn’t get old does it!) i also emailed my favourite blogger yday and basically poured my heart out and confided in her about a lot of things i keep well hidden. it’s nice to talk to a stranger. which reminds me, i’ve just made a new post about this so have a look!
BUT ANYWAY OMG YAYAYAY!!! i’ve got myslef an athletic frnd, eh (yes, we’re frnds now bc i say so) but aw mannn, i can see it means a lot to you so well done, man!! i send all the best wishes and prayers to you, hope everything works out brilliantly in the world of long jump and the world of life for you my lovely little anon!

The most perfect conclusion about how “virginity” came to be I’ve ever encountered.

Notes"1. Date a boy who makes you happy, but marry him only if he makes you laugh deep-belly rumbles that hurt your ribs as they expand outwards. Date him when he sees that you’re hurting and he gives you a moment to feel that pain like a handprint spreading across your consciousness, marry him only if he can make you smile even while you’re gross sobbing. The world is not a kind place. You will feel a lot of pain. Make sure you are with someone who makes it all bearable. Humor is an excellent gauge of intelligence. Life gets boring. Find someone who makes the banal interesting.
2. Make sure he has scars on the back of his hands, it’s a good sign he has experience either fighting or making things - creation is an act of selflessness and bruised knuckles are a good sign he knows how to defend himself. You’ve got too much soul to be handled by someone who has never been passionate. If he’s never thrown a punch, let him at least have tasted the insanity of bringing an idea into existence. Rough palms are better than soft ones, they have been salted by this earth and made into leather. Callouses are evidence he has lived, that he has broken skin and been in pain over and over and over again and still came back to the source of it. People rub against each other. Don’t marry him if he can’t handle even a little blister.
3. Before you say yes, get him angry. See him scared, see him wanting, see him sick. Stress changes a person. Find out if he drinks and if he does, get him drunk - you’ll learn more about his sober thoughts. Discover his addictions. See if he puts you in front of them. You can’t change people, baby girl. If they are made one way, it doesn’t just wear off. If you hate how he acts when he’s out of it now, you’re going to hate it much worse eight years down the road. You might love him to bits but it doesn’t change that some people just don’t fit.
4. Trust your instincts. If he ever makes you feel unsafe, don’t make excuses, just get up and leave. That’s all there is to it. It’s better to be safe than sorry.
5. If he puts money before you, he’ll keep pushing you to the bottom of the pile until you become his last priority. It’s one thing if he can’t afford what you want, it’s another if he has the cash but won’t spring for a box of chicken mcnuggets. Money and love are arch enemies. 62% of divorces occur due to economic strain. Make sure keeping you is more important than his 401k.
6. How a man treats animals is a good indicator of how he treats children. If you see him raise a hand to a dog, pack your things into a little black bag. Animals at their worst are only half as annoying as a toddler on their best behaviour. Your kids will be beautiful, but they will also misbehave. Same goes for waiters and hotel maids - if he’s rude to those who are working for minimum wage, it says a lot about how he sees himself. Patience is rare and so important. If he’s not forgiving to a dog, he’s not good for your kids.
7. If he isn’t in awe of you, he doesn’t deserve you. You are my little girl and you were born perfect. If he can’t see that, it’s his loss. There is someone who thinks your flaws power his heart. Be strong. If he asks you to change, be like like rock of your birthstone, do not waver. You are wondrous just the way that you are.
