  1. So look me in the eyes, tell me what you see

    Perfect paradise, tearin' at the seams

    I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it

    Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe

    But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

      Especially the Stripped version ✨✨

      That's such a good song!!! I need to find this stripped version 

  2. To the One who Was:

    I’ll be honest.

    I don’t miss you.

    I don’t miss what we had.

    What he had might have been nice in the moment, but had it gone on any longer, it would’ve surely ruined my life. And while I struggled with losing you and with my punishment for being with you, I also grew. I also realized that it was a good thing we were separated.

    What we had was not based on love. It was based on something else. Something that wouldn’t have lasted long. If I had stayed with you, I would’ve only become someone I do not ever want to be.

    However, I don’t wish you any ill will.

    In fact, I hope you’re happy now. I hope you’ve found someone, I hope you’ve found true love. As I have.

    Something better than what we had.

    It took a long time to get closure. We were young, lived too far apart, and when there were moments when I could’ve talked to you, I didn’t. I was scared.

    I was scared I would be roped back into what was, and that I’d only fall deeper into the terrible pit that I had been falling into.

    But when we got closure, things seemed brighter. I was able to let you go.

    Finally.

    And now I’ve found someone who looks at me like they’re all I need. I’ve found someone who sees me for me.

    I hope you’ve found that person too.

    Regards,

    CN

      Aww. You care, and your words show it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful writing.

  3. found a trail ruin in Minecraft, as well as several shipwrecks, and a couple buried treasures.

    i have much loot now.

    mmm.

  4. yesterday i told my mom i probably have depression.

    and after explaining the reasons why that me and my therapist came to during our session on wednesday, she agreed with me.

     

    what.

    i was not expecting her to agree with me.

    see now, the reasons i have depression are as follows:

    1. my mothers post-partum after me was the worst post-partum she’s ever had, and she told me she had suspected that the first year of my life night have screwed me up a bit because of how it screwed her up.

    2. covid pushed up the already higher-than-normal bar of emotional stability, so that it was oh so close to overflowing the emotion-pot. i was unstable, but not completely falling apart. yet.

    3. that whole deal with one of my closest friends, practically my sibling, who i met at FSY last year, trying to take her own life late last july. that traumatized me and made the emotion-pot bubble over, gifting me anxiety, and now depression

    4. other things that made the emotion-pot bubble up, such as my four years of digestive issues before finally figuring out last november it was both lactose intolerance AND gluten intolerance. those four years were very traumatizing and i now have very very severe emetophobia :))))

     

    anywho, wednesday is my birthday, and thursday is my yearly well check with my doctor, and we’re gonna bring it up with her then

    hopefully i don’t just fall apart at the seams before then ahaha

      well there are symptoms too, but we knew those, and pretty much knew i had depression because of those

      but it’s also helpful to know what caused it

      Thank you vewwy vewwwy much, and you’re very welcome :D 

  11. you’d be surprised just how specific sexual orientations can get. they can get reaaaaally specific.
  12. hmmmm it’s possible to find aesthetic attraction only in some men, but every other attraction in women. i know it’s very confusing, this thing usually is, but i promise we’re here for you to help you figure it out. to me, it sounds like lesbian with aesthetic attractions to men.
  13. here’s the plan:

    i leave for my mission in about a year.

    meaning i leave luna for 2 years: an eternity to my romantic mind. but i’m trading this eternity for another eternity.

    either way, i have a great idea that i’m well on my way to completing.

    for every day i’m gone, all 730, i will write 1 little thing. a short romantic phrase, a mini poem.

    and as long as i write at least two per day, i’ll be finished quickly.

    i’ve already done 24 of them.

  14. aint nothing like flying around in minecraft mining every ore in sight while listening to some chill synthwave

      Try looking at the stars, and visualize the utter vastness of the universe, that always helps me get over my worry.

  17. i’m dubbing the times of 10:30 PM to 12:00 AM the Lovesick Hours.

    for… obvious reasons.

  18. “why did you fall in love?”

     

     

     

    ”i didn’t mean to… i just couldn’t help it.”

     

     

    ”what did it change?”

     

     

     

     

     

    ”everything.”

    We tried to get a celebrity voice (David Tennant) for Tress [audiobook]. His people were great, but I soon realized that asking someone unfamiliar with my work to record something on such a tight deadline was unfair and potentially too stressful for everyone involved.

    I tried a different celebrity for project two, but their schedule wasn't open. So I settled on Michael and Kate (whom I was always going to ask to do project three) for the first three. Only they were herculean enough to do it on such short notice. (And for the publishing industry, less than a year up front is short notice.)

    Project four will have a narrator we haven't used before in order to try something new. We haven't picked yet, but are starting the process.

    BalonSwann07

    Are you able to share who the second celebrity would have been?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Henry Cavill.

    WE COULD HAVE HAD DAVID TENNANT AND HENRY CAVILL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  21. asked luna today what the minimum amount of time was before i proposed after i got back from my mission.

    she thought for a minute then said, "mm, about 2 weeks."

     

    this girl, you guys.

    she's fun.

      I wish I could say I understand, but I don't I should go back to grade school 

  22. update:

    i drove to the library, which is apparently closed today, but on the way there i cried, and on the way back i cried/scream-sang along to Words Fail from DEH.

     

    what has this book done to me.

    1. The Wandering Wizard

      The Wandering Wizard

      I really wanna read it now :eyes:

      Reminds me of a book called Drums, girls and dangerous pie or so it would seem

      words fail is quite a song

      I LOVE WORDS FAIL!! 

  23. Finish time: 1:25 AM.

     

    i am broken.

    my heart has been torn out, torn apart, and my soul torn down.

    my love is cracked. my joy is wounded.

    my tears are gone.

    i am numb.

    i am scared, i am anxious, i am hit where it hurts.

    she had cancer once. bone cancer, like Augustus.

    it was in her ankle. it’s gone now.

    but this novel makes me wonder…

    what if it comes back?

     

    what if i lose her

    what if i cannot write her the eulogy, the epilogue, the sequel she deserves?

    so many what if?’s… curse this anxiety, and the way it’s addled my mind.

    tomorrow i will cry at her, let my anxieties present themselves to her in words.

    i am forever changed. i mean it. this book has changed me. for better or for worse i know not.

    i am waxing poetic, but that is due to Augustus’s four page letter to Van Houten.

    can a man not wax poetic in a moment of weakness when the moon is high, and his only company the stars?

    curse this fragile frame, these tender thoughts, this manipulative and manipulated mind.

    curse the anxiety, the pain, the death.

    fault in our stars cry count

    near cry:

    • 1: “i’m a grenade.”
    • 2: “you spent it on us.”
    • 3: “I took Gus’s hand, stroking circles around the space between his thumb and forefinger.”
    • 4: “You used to call me Augustus.”
    • 5: The End Of The Boom: Agustus’s Letter

     

    cry:

    • 1: “it would be a privilege to have my heart broken by you.”
    • 2: “Everywere.” to “I guess I had a hamartia after all.”
    • 3: “I want to write you a sequel, Hazel Grace. I’m just so damned tired all the time.”
    • 4: “And you say you don’t write poetry.”
    • 5: Chapter Twenty-One
    • 6: “You can light these. I won’t mind.”
