Summer would have long, blonde hair, wavy from the salty water she swims in, that she wears either down or in a messy bun atop her head. She would live in oversized band t-shirts that she tosses over her bikinis, and wear the lingering scent of the ocean, mixed with her fruity perfume. She would […]

You will always find people who have no problem with telling you that you're too loud, too passionate, too competitive, too outspoken, or too intense. Too weird, too emotional, too opinionated, too dramatic, too everything. But none of these things are flaws. I taught myself that. They're gifts. I'm competitive, passionate and emotional because I […]

If you were to ask me when I feel most like me, this would be my answer. I feel most like myself when I'm dancing in my room with my headphones so loud that they're probably slowly turning me deaf, but it's not loud enough since in an ideal world I would be able to […]

Home isn't only a place. It can be, but most of the time it's so much more than where you rest your head on your pillow at night. Home is the first swim of the summer, as the cool water reaches your skin. Someone listening to you intently, really hearing what you're saying, as you […]

In the whole world and its creeks and rivers, and different buildings and sights to see, my favourite place to be is where the sand is soft beneath my feet and my hair is falling in messy curls, courtesy of the salty waves. I love being at the beach almost more than words can describe, […]

I'd make sure that along the way one of my stopovers was in Asia, because I know their food is delicious how I've tried it, but it would be so much more delicious actually being made there. I want to go to the UK and meet all the extended family I have over there. Go […]

If my soul were to be separated into all the different colours that it consists of, it would appear something like this. The pink in my soul is the kindness and care. The love I have for my friends, family, and everything else that lives in my heart. It's each time that I've smiled at […]

Autumn would have long auburn hair that she wears in braids that flow down her back. She would wear knit sweaters and smell like cinnamon. She would be quiet but smart, and an intense overachiever. She would enjoy reading poetry and old novels and speak in a hushed tone. She would always be calm and […]

I had coffee with my younger self today. I was a little early – just to be safe, and she arrived on time. She ordered a hot chocolate, I asked for a soy chai latte. She had never had one before, but when she said she wanted to try mine I let her, and she […]

I think there's something really rare about feeling truly seen by someone, even in all your complexities. Not just in the obvious ways, like compliments, although there is something unforgettable about receiving a compliment that feels like it's genuinely from the heart, and truly believed by the person who's telling it to you. Not the […]

I believe in pinky promises. I always have. I know its childish, but they're still real to me. I try my absolute hardest not to break them. I just don't see how you can sit there knowing that you're actively lying to someone – but still make a pinky promise. It's just wrong. As much […]

A child doesn't stress of feel forlorn. Not over anything more serious than a dropped ice-cream cone, a scraped knee, or a friend sitting somewhere other than besides them. But is that only because of age? I don't think so. Your childhood wasn't magic just because you were young, it was sweet because nobody is […]

I cut my sandwiches in a crooked line – not in the middle and not diagonal, because I saw my dad do it once and thought it was quirky. Most of the movies that I consider to be in my top ten – the cinematic masterpieces that I always return to, I have my parents […]
