what is liiiiiiife, like seriously. Isabel and I have been using this term up the hooha lately cause seriously, whatttttt. isss. itttt. It's hard to understand at times, but it's also amazingly awesome. and I feel so lucky to have met such all around great and perfect people lately. I finally got to meet Isabel, Rachel, Larissa, Selena, and Sabella in the past week and I felt so instantaneously connected to them it was insane. I am so stoked to be living in close vicinity to all these people, and of course Madeline and Brit too! a lot of intense and life changing stuff has been taking place, but I have been realizing that if you accept what you can't control and keep being true to yourself then everything will fall into place exactly how it's meant to...eventually.

insomnia

(wearing: thrifted diy cut off athletic tank, vintage skirt, Dimepiece beanie)

this post was induced by some serious insomnia. it's one of those nights where my body is so exhausted but my brain won't quiet down. so, I thought it would be a good time to play some catch up and post a few (old) photos. these were taken the day after 'national goth day' which was at the end of May. I keep finding more old photos that had been lost amongst the chaos of my many dated folders. I just got home yesterday from a family vacation to Catalina island. it was such an amazing time. the water was so beautiful and the weather was perfect, but after days of snorkeling and sunburn it was so nice to get home to my pups and my bed. I'm starting to realize my days here are numbered, and doing my best to relish the last of being at home and surrounded by my family the best I can.

it's time for me to try and shut off the brain and get some sleep before I start sleep typing. which doesn't seem like as much of a long shot after hearing my sister's recollection of my sleep eating which has apparently occurred numerous times now. what is life.

Lately I've been wearing all black. a lot. I kind of like the fact that combined with my crazy hair, it causes people to stare at me with a perplexed look on their face wondering if I'm a gothic angsty teenager (most people assume I'm the youngest of my sisters, one of which is sixteen. LOL) or a witch on her way to a coven meeting. Regardless of how I dress- whether it be crazy rainbow colors and clashing prints or head to toe black and layers of silver jewelery- I seem to be more and more drawn towards the less socially acceptable. It's so much more fun to dress however you're feeling in the moment, even if it is crazy and most people will question your sanity whilst walking about in public, because what's the point in looking like everybody else? Where is the freedom and creativity in that? I drank a bit too much coffee and I'm going to cut this rant short. My fingers are typing away faster than my brain can string together what it is I am even trying to say.

On another subject, I am currently still in LA at my boyfriend's house and we've spent the past two nights watching the meteor shower from his backyard. Two nights a go we were watching at about one am and we had seen so many amazingly bright meteors, our eyes were fixated on the sky above us and it was completely silent aside from a slight breeze and the sound of our breathing. All of a sudden, he grabbed me and turned my head towards the north east as we both sat in shock watching what can only be described as a triangular formation of ufos fly across the sky and then vanish into the darkness. I know it sounds nuts, it even seems unreal to me now as I sit here recalling what we saw. Time seemed to move by so slowly in that moment, my mind couldn't quite comprehend the reality of what we had both witnessed. I'd never seen anything like it before, and who knows if I ever will again. But I can pretty much guarantee I will spend the rest of my life watching the sky wondering with even more curiosity as to what lies beyond the reaches of our little planet.

So I am sitting at my boyfriend's house in LA right now, and it's a million flippin degrees. LITERALLY feel like my brain has melted and I'm semi-delusional/hallucinating. I'm distracting myself with lots of juice and the No Doubt pandora station..which is pretty frickin surprisingly good. I would write more, but I have a funny feeling I would look back at the post later and wonder what the heck I was thinking when typing it out. You know you're entering heat induced hysterics when every sarcastic/cheesy thought that pops up in your mind leads to uncontrollable laughter...whilst sitting by yourself...alone..besides a doggy that keeps raising one eyebrow at you.

'that's just because you're a scorpio'

(wearing: thrifed/diy crop, thrifted pants, vintage necklace and belt, Jeffrey Campbell Munsters)

introducinngggg; the world's most awkward crotch-ed pants ever! and guess what.. dgaf dudes. But seriously, akwardness and all, these are probably one of my most favorite pairs of pants ever. And the fact that they cost me 2 bucks at Salvation Army makes em even cooler. SO, I was having a little chat with my guy today and he was giving me a few helpful bits of advice. One of which was that I should cut back a bit on the amount of photos I post, and make the ones I do post display a bit more versatility. After thinking it over, I think he's pretty much tot-uh-lee right. I mean, I have tried to cut back on the amount of repetitive photos I post but a girl is indecisive n shiut. All excuses and nonsense aside, my goal has always been and always should be to post really good GREAT content that catches the eye of like minded creative people and maybe (hopefully) inspires them in some way. SO, my goal going forward with this lil blog of mine is going to be to streamline a bit. I want to make a new header (which is ridiculously over-do) and have better quality posts with less 'filler' photos. I also want to start doing a lot more visual diary posts, cause in all honesty they're a lot more interesting than a bunch of photos of little old me. Well that is enough rambling for meow.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

I've been constantly switching between either dressing like a colorful cartoon fairy or a goth gypsy punk lately. I've been obsessing over holographic rainbow prints, everything ripped up and shredded, and black paired with plaid. And how freaking rad is this studded clutch?! It's from Darker, my dude's company, and he makes a whole shmorgishborg of amazing hand made leather goods.

I just want to feel everything

More purple hair picturesssss. These are old (obvi) but I am actually planning on re-doing most of my hair this color this week. Sho exshitedddd. As for today, once I finish up a couple of SOS orders I will be dedicating the rest of my time to finding my inner balance. I've felt really out of sorts lately and sometimes it's important to take a step back and re-find yourself and reconnect in a way. It seems most people I talk to nowadays suffer from a general feeling of disconnection. The world around us is so hyper-stimulating, so fast paced and ever changing that it's hard to come to grips with living in the moment and not getting caught up in the chaos and superficial distractions.

My remedy to all of this? Meditation, music, reading and writing.

Also, new Fiona Apple GOLD. gahd I love her too much for words.
