how to be that girl ~

have a signature everything. scent, nail colour, hairstyle, make-up (as in like a defining statement maybe eyeliner), accessory?

have a morning and night routine.

genuinely pretty people are always kind. be nice, give compliments on small things. because pretty isn’t just on the outside it’s inside too.

be your main priority. take care of your mind, energy, mental health, and body. work out, eat healthy food, meditate, read and do fun things. Become your own best friend and take care of yourself.

be independent and confident. don’t hold on to people who drain your energy; confront them or cut them off.

jealousy is a disease. take inspiration from those who have what you want, look up to them and learn.

tell people your here. share your thoughts, be funny, don’t take yourself too seriously, be open-minded and as present as you can be

stop caring. peoples opinions shouldn’t matter to you. nice fit? Wear it. Hungry? Eat.

don’t overthink. focus on the present and live in the moment.

you’re loved 🩰🦢🚬🕯️

HOW TO ROMANTICIZE LIFE

Romanticizing life involves finding joy and beauty in everyday moments. Here are some ideas to add a touch of romance to your life:

Gratitude Practice: Cultivate gratitude by appreciating the simple things in life. Keep a gratitude journal to reflect on positive experiences.

Mindfulness: Be present in the moment. Pay attention to your surroundings, savor the tastes and smells, and fully engage in your activities.

Create Rituals: Develop daily or weekly rituals that bring you joy, whether it's a special morning routine, an evening walk, or a cozy bedtime ritual.

Surround Yourself with Beauty: Decorate your space with things that make you happy – flowers, candles, artwork. Create an environment that uplifts your spirits.

Indulge in Your Senses: Enjoy sensory experiences. Treat yourself to your favorite meal, listen to beautiful music, or immerse yourself in a captivating fragrance.

Embrace Nature: Spend time in nature. Whether it's a park, a beach, or a forest, connect with the beauty of the natural world.

Celebrate Small Wins: Acknowledge and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small. It adds a sense of accomplishment and positivity to your life.

Dress for Yourself: Wear clothes that make you feel good. It's a simple way to express yourself and boost your confidence.

Connect with Loved Ones: Nurture your relationships. Spend quality time with friends and family, sharing laughter and creating cherished memories.

Read and Dream: Immerse yourself in literature, art, or music that sparks your imagination. Allow yourself to dream and be inspired.

Remember, romanticizing life is about finding joy in the little things and appreciating the beauty that surrounds you. It's a mindset that can bring more positivity and fulfillment into your daily experiences.

Software Engineer Diaries: First Day Back After a Week Off 👩‍💻

there's got to be a way i can romanticize this absolute chaos, right? 🤔

part 1: murphy's law 💀

a.k.a. i'm gonna need something stronger than matcha

wake up to find out that intern broke something 🙃

our manager is on both our asses 🍑

help intern fix it and set up safeguard against future mistakes 😌

~☁️ a meeting i don't really remember ☁️~

give product team an update on the project i'm coordinating 🤝

🚀 BIG LAUNCH (but it's just into our dev environment)

colleague messages me saying 🚀 is breaking his code

😮‍💨 "feel stupid" wasn't in the schedule for today 😑

part 2: why do i even bother 😭

a.k.a. i have too many tabs open and not one of them is playing music 😔

i can't figure out what's wrong with 🚀 because i am building on top of sand and our documentation is 💩

call in senior colleagues

wait while they debate, trade custom emojis, and have a bro talk moment

propose a plan to fix 🚀 based on their info

~🍃 in the meantime 🍃~

had a really ambiguous and complicated meeting with my manager

intern raises a different issue with the project

investigate and end up finding ANOTHER issue 🌝

postpone internal testing meeting we were supposed to have today because it's just not possible anymore

part 3: redemption arc? 👀

a.k.a. daydreaming about the victory post i'm going to make when this project wraps

remember how i said i've never gotten to take a project from beginning to end? i always get stuff handed off to me like a hot potato?

WELL 😡

I FOUND A WORM IN THE POTATO 😡😡

idk how to run with this metaphor 🤷‍♀️

the point is the last person who touched this project keeps leaving me worms 🪱

whatever, the point is i figured out how to fix 🌝

BUT to get it to work, i need to fix 🚀 first

so i get my proposal approved and fix 🚀

and then loop in the intern to do the other half of the fix because i am so done right now ⚰️

💌: i need to schedule another vacation ASAP 😂 but while i might whine for ✨ dramatic effect ✨, i really am grateful to my colleagues who have to deal with me this with me 🥺 it will be over soon 🥲

Condemned Building (7.4.18)

The house where we became is hollow, windowless and the walls are painted with the dustless images of what could have been if perhaps the shadows hadn’t crowded the dying fire that heated each of our once furnished rooms.

Mirrors that once gleamed with the charm of uncertainty now grimace with scarcely a full shine, the fireplace filled only with spot and ashes of foolishly laid hopes that never blossomed into truth, and wandering through these faded halls, sometimes I think “Dear God, why did I put so much of myself into a structure condemned and why did nobody else warn me before I stepped inside?”

no bc romanticizing my life (and regularly taking my meds. cannot forget that influence) is so cool?? it’s 2pm, and i’ve already showered, done two loads of laundry, folded loads more, made breakfast (and actually cooked for that), made lunch, done dishes, cleaned a few rooms, and made my bed! but not just that, i’m happy. like actually hopeful and creative and all that jazz. i’ve been coming up with fic ideas (both cursed and not cursed) and ways to express myself. it’s good, and it’s progress.

Being honest with you guys, I don't know where my head is this academic year.

Last year, I was able to focus and revise so easily, and I felt more prepared than anyone else for exams. For some reason, I haven't been able to concentrate this time around; I've spent days just staring at my laptop not knowing how to start, not being able to move out of bed even though I want to study, studying for 5 minutes and then losing the will. For the first time in 3 years, I'm actually worried about doing okay.

I really don't know what's wrong with me.

summer feels so real, so wonderful and the rest of the year feels frozen, like you’re just waiting for real life.

I love how it gets dark so late (although I kind of wish sunrise wouldn’t occur so early it’s a small sacrifice), I love hot weather, wearing a light outfit, drinking a cold drink, wandering around with my favourite people, eating cheap and trashy food, walking for miles and miles, bike rides with friends

early mornings feel less dreadful now that the sun feels like it’s been up there a while, the breeze is hot and everyone is a little bit happier. walking to the shop and buying a fruit flavoured cold fizzy drink, sitting on the grass, my legs a little itchy, blasting lana del rey on repeat

late nights because it’s too hot to sleep, reading and chatting and listening to my favourite songs. going to the beach, long drive, wet hair, cold shower afterwards, nice big dinner, flowy dresses and long skirts, the smell of sunscreen, crunchy, juicy, sweet watermelon, cherries in the evening, vanilla milkshakes by the beach, swimming for hours, late nights stargazing, orange soda and oregano flavoured crisps, exploring the city: it’s every little crevice, lemonade and ice cream sticks , the feeling of sun on my skin

yes it is okay for you to be jealous of people who seem less passionate than you and get opportunities for which you couldn't even find the confidence to apply since you suffered from crippling low self esteem and doubt unlik them who had good socio-econonic and cultural capital already in hand before going and getting those opportunities like a girlboss. for some of us the struggle ends where their struggle starts, so comparison is not just invalid but also wrong fundamentally. your values are self-care, self development and authentic connection. if you're not able to get all 3 for the most part in a journey or a decision, you're probably not ready for it and that's ok and valid. make decisions which suit your values and not the ones being made by an inherently capitalistic society which even wants to patent passion as something which gets you quick results without giving any acknowledgement whatsoever to basic living difficulty suffered by many of us.

i think my brain needs fucking disciplining

like in a sexy way but also actual

#i feel sooooo that letterboxd collection that was just all the unhinged women movies #I'm not a woman but i feel all the women in those movies because i am reckless and callous and mean #and so incredibly self destructive #not trying to romanticise my mental health crisis or the toll it takes on me and others! just trying to have gallows humour about it #and attempting to cope after having a Very bad episode #after which i ordered some tacos and went back to work

A most satisfying feeling is when you work on something you like and realise how serious you are about it but still having fun while listening to soft music. Romanticise the shit out of your life.
