I rambled too long about my reread of The Great Gatsby ..........

there’s no such thing as rambling for too long about the great gatsby. i need to reread this book after my exams because i feel like I missed a lot of the subtext (T-T)

@lavenderblues you should check it out again when you have the chance, it's rich with this kind of stuff!

I haven't read gatsby in a while but I have re-read it as an adult already and it really is beautiful! I remember being told in high school that Nick was an extremely reliable narrator because he vouches for himself at the beginning and being very confused when I actually read the book. Why were we being taught that??

Just adding a new review (this time with actual words!)--maybe I'll do more around this site tonight or tomorrow, who knows

Updated my media log--I have star ratings up but I'll add actual reviews when I'm cognizant enough to gather my thoughts about everything

GASP the gospel of mary magdalene!!! i studied that in undergrad!

Helluva movie lineup!

@shydeeer WHAAAAAT how cool!! I'd love to hear about impressions and what you thought! I read it for the first time and absolutely adored it--and the translator's notes and insights too!! :D <3

@chey LOL it's a weird mix for sure!! I meant to watch more movies this year so I really need to get on that goal! (*´∀`*)

Inspired by @cheytopia, I created an outfit log to entice me to stop being such an outfit repeater LOL (*´∀`*)

Ahhh yay I love it! I hope you find lots of new inspiration!! Super excited to keep up and see what you come up with <333

Also these outfits so far sound delicious! Obsessed with your use of color.

what a cute idea! your outfit today sounds so cute ♡ i'm really looking forwarding to reading about your future outfits!

@chey ahhhh thank yoouuuuu!! I think it's a great way to find inspiration since you can easily refer back to what works and doesn't work for you!! Thanks for the compliments on the outfits too, playing around with color is one of my favorite things to do in fashion!! ;w; ♡♡

@lapin you're so sweet, thank you for your compliments!! It makes me happy you're looking forward to it, it makes me excited to share more outfits haha! ;u; ♡♡

New diary update + made a change to Princess Guard where pictures in the gallery now open to their original size--enjoy Aerith in her full beautiful glory (￣^￣)ゞ

i looove planning outfits! i'm using an app for it now and i feel like cher from clueless haha~ i always wanted to play stardew valley, but i feel like i'd get too into it and forget life haha <3 lovely entry as always!!

Such a delicious optimistic air surrounding this update! Living vicariously through your meticulous planning which I can imagine is extremely satisfying. There's something about Stardew where it sucks up so much time but really gets one thinking about optimization first in game before translating to real life.

Good luck with all that is coming your way!!<3

@tabi ooohhh, what app are you using?? :o I want Cher's outfit planner in real life so I'll take the next best thing haha! ;u; I can be such an outfit repeater but deciding what I wanna wear in advanced entices me to use more of my closet! You're totally right about SDV being a time suck but it's sooo fuuun, totally worth losing a part of your life at times LOL thank you for your kind words though!! ♡♡

@chey that's such a good point you made about Stardew!! I find that when I play it those mental optimization tools you use in-game gets applied in real life! In my experience, planning is what allows me to stay focused on the larger picture, but spontaneity is vital too... like with most things, a balance tends to be best! Thank you so much for reading and commenting, you're so sweet! ♡

@sanguineroyal ahhh thank you Krish, I'm wishing the same for you in return!! ♡♡

it's the openwardrobe app!! you add pics of your clothing items and it removes the background, and after cataloguing you can put together outfits~ it's really fun!! :3 you can even add friends and create outfits with their items too haha

Your farm layout really inspires me +_+
