@lapin what a fun week!! The lights of the home are so stunning--and how fun you were able to walk around and look at the displays! The home interior is gorgeous too, the caretakers have done an amazing job preserving it!! ♥♥

I adore your Kate Spade purse collection too, and your VW jewelry! Such beautiful pieces!! Someday I hope to have pairs of her solid orbs and pearl drops in my own, but in gold hehe ;u; ♥

thank you!!! VW jewelry is so fun and beautiful, def my favorite!! i hope you can get some for yourself soon!! ♥

!!! the dividers with the little heart dangling down... literally gasped and said "sick!" to my computer screen. i'm excited to see the set finished, whether it's up for grabs or not!

OOUGGGHHH THE FURSONA... I love it...

ahhh thank you both!!! ♥ (*^▽^*)

your sona is so cute! i love her

thank you pom!! ♥

oh my gosh o(TヘTo) your floriagraphy page is SO CUTE and charming..;;;;; never wanted to live inside a webpage so bad

thank you so much!!!🥹🩷 it's def one of my favorite pages!

Everything you bought on Saturday is so adorable!! Totally with you that a day out with your mom is good for the soul, haha ;u; would totally be torn on using the perfume as well since the bottle is so pretty ; __ ; what is its scent, I'm so curoius!!

oh thank you! i had such good luck with cute finds on saturday! ^_^ the perfume is mainly rose scented! there are some notes of green tea and something lightly woodsy/warm? i'd describe it as oriental rose (which suits the character imo!! :3c)

Omg I'm soo jealous of ur shopping haul!! I wish there were nerd stores near me that catered to fangirls but unless you like Disney it's very much a boys club

Your story idea sounds like something the world needs! As far as media recs for inspo go, I immediately thought of Judy Blume. If you dont feel like reading her books, there is a really good documentary movie about her writing and how she destigmatized the topics of puberty, sex, and masturbation for her young readers. Worth watching if you just like seeing badass women tbh

@allyratworld ahhh that sucks T_T im manifesting a decent nerd store to open near you soon 🙏✨

@vivarism thank you sm for the recs!! i'm going to check out her books and the documentary, ive been wanting to read more stuff that isnt fanficition (😭) she sounds so admirable and like a gift to girls everywhere!!💞

omg so slay.. i love your art so much <3 every little line u put out into the world makes it brighter.

it looks so good! the name kalopsia reminds me of a swedish/finnish food called kalops... kinda wanna make it now ngl, it's been a while since i had it

lol i had to google that dish but omg it looks amazing!!

I'm so sorry to hear you've been down! It sounds like you have a lot on your plate, so it's completely understandable you feel down. So often it's always like, a bunch of different things just compiling and weighing you down, and it's stressful!! I'm happy you have things to look forward to at least, and hopefully everything works out for the best, too ; __ ; ♡♡

The part where you talk about watching your parents aging and time continuing to flow is very very relatable. I feel you. Ever since I was a child I was scared of my parents dying, but now it's seeing their hair become more grey and their skin becoming more lined. We must spend as much time as we can with them now. Sending love 🥰

I, too, relate to the part about watching your parents age. I'm a pretty late child, especially for my dad - he was well into his 50s when I was born, which means he's in his 80s now. His physical health and cognitive abilities have been declining rapidly in the past couple of years, and it's been quite sad and difficult to witness... I feel like I haven't *truly* realized the inevitability of aging until now.

Having just hosted my parents for a few days, I was keenly aware of their age, mobility, etc., and it reinforced this weird inversion where, at a certain age, you become more responsible and capable than them. I hated seeing their physical and mental decline. I hope you get lots of quality time with family. Take care!

thank you for the comments everyone! it's oddly comforting knowing i'm not alone in feeling this but i also wish none of us never had to deal with it :( i wish i had the spoons to say more but i really appreciate the kindness ♥

I too have been thinking a lot about the passage of time and aging a lot this year... The fact that time keeps moving whether we're ready or not is so cruel and scary. You stop and realize one day just how different your parents look. But I'm glad you can still spend time with your loved ones and that your father-in-law can recover!! I hope things get better for you and you get through your art block. ♥

thank you so much for the kind words arachne! i really appreciate it ♥

so so good
