Some updates and promises

Life updates:

Lately I have been exploring with poetry. While I have always loved the way poems twist truths into lovely life snapshots and stories with few words, I have never been a genius making their beauty. I've been experimenting, testing, and learning how to put my thoughts on paper which doesn't involve blocks of text. You should see them up shortly.

Deviant Community Updates:

DailyBreadCafe is thinking about selling her account due largely to the passing of the co-owner of the page. Although it's sad to see her go (along with all the lovely deviations that she and Toby made over the years), I promised her I'd help her move on by sharing this journal: ohineedtea.deviantart.com/jour…

I got tagged!

While I don't usually do things such as this, I figured I'd stop being a stick in the mud and actually participate in a tag questionnaire for once.

10 Facts about me:

1. I'm an ambivert who likes to talk but is bad with talking to people. 
2. I have a deep love for Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 .
3. I find enjoyment in deep topics, movie/book/tv show analysis, political discussion, and passionate debates about things that 90% won't even matter a year from now.
4. Despite writing before I could read, I'm still horribly insecure at my ability to write.
5. I hold writing utensils shamelessly with all five fingers clutching close to the pointy part of the pen/pencil/etc.
6. I actually miss not having to do community service.
7. I only have to show up to work for three hours a week, and can be any day(s) I want.
8. "Saevus/saeva/saevum" is my favorite Latin word, and the only reason my username uses the masculine form is because when I younger I didn't realize there was a feminine form.
9. I want to become a Wildlife Ecologist as well as a novelist.
10. I still have the roses my first ex-boyfriend gave me in a vase. Not because I love him--I just love dried out roses.

1. Favourite summer album this year?

I'm that boring person who doesn't really buy albums on time or pay attention to their release. I'd say my "personal summer album" would be "Divers and Submarines" by Passenger. He's got excellent traveling music, and I've been traveling quite a lot this summer, in mind and body. It's fitting, I suppose.

2. Do you like me?

AyeAye12, I like you as much as I love your ridiculous username and your quirky writing (which is a lot). 

3. Favourite place of meditation? (Understanding meditation doesn't have to be the stereotypical sense)

That's a good question. I love exploring past the "no trespassing" signs of my neighborhood and into the conservation lands, becoming half in awed by the trees, and the other half at peace with nature. Honestly though, my most common place of comfort is probably my bed. Don't judge--it's comfortable and the place I relax while writing or listening to music.

4. Meaning of life for you?

Sometimes I wonder if there is meaning.

I think, life is meant to prove how far people will go to love themselves. Lose all the dreams, the money, the family, and you realize you are most comfortable with stability. But life is constantly moving, challenges are increasingly more present, and it's your job as a person to overcome all that, and all those dreams and goals--those are meant to prove to yourself that you can become someone. The last stage of life is acceptance, after all. 

I wish life was about helping others though. I really wish life was about kindness. But even though I'm young, I'm not naive enough to believe people aren't selfish.

5. What is your opinion of tags?

They're pretty silly, and I'm pretty serious. We usually never mix. (I'm making an effort to make it work though! See? I'm doing them.)

6. Ben Whishaw? 

I have never seen any of the movies IMDb says he's known for.
 
7. If you answered "no" to the last question, are you ready to apolgise?

I'm sorry I had to Google search "Ben Whishaw."

8. What is your opinion of Question 8?

I feel like a question about a question is being told the meaning of life is 42.

9. "" of Question 9?

I think I have a feeling of deja vu  coming on.

10. What is the most recent word to come out of your mouth?

I can't remember. Something about how Elsa didn't know the kingdom was frozen when she had a clear view of Arendelle from her ice castle. Also why her first instinct was to shove her dying sister out of said ice castle by Marshmellow (giant ice monster) even though she knew where the stone trolls were to help her. 

I'm fun at parties I swear.

My Questions:

1. What are your thoughts on cultural appropriation and clothing? Is it ever okay, or is even a tribal print tee shirt inspired off of another culture crossing the line?

2. What was the first thing you ever wrote, drew, or took a picture of (depending on your main art media)?

3. Do you still have your childhood security blanket? If so, what does it look like in comparison to when you first received it? 

4. If you had to describe the color purple to a totally colorblind person without using any color cues, what would you say? 

5. Who was the most famous person you've ever met?

6. Do you remember the first website you frequented often? If so, what was it?

7. What do you feel started the New Age Disney Renaissance: The Princess and the Frog or Tangled? 

8. What is your opinion of the events happening in Ferguson involving the police and Michael Brown? 

9. What item in your room (excluding your diary/journal if you have one) would you say describes you the best?

10. What is the favorite quote you ever said to your best friend (or vice versa)?
