The Secret History
“Beauty is terror. Whatever we call beautiful, we quiver before it.”
“I prefer to think of it, he had said, as redistribution of matter.”
“It is is better to know one book intimately than a hundred superficially.”
“In short: I felt my existence was tainted, in some subtle but essential way.”
“Anything is grand if it's done on a large enough scale.”
“Forgive me, for all the things I did but mostly the ones i did not.”
“There is nothing wrong with the love of Beauty. But Beauty - unless she is wed to something more meaningful - is always superficial.”
Totally didn't make this like a year ago but posting it just now what definitely nott
Spring with the burn of the Sun that gets lost in the wintry winds of the shade, the bloom of a million flowers from the cracked earth of the desolate days of the past, the renewal of life and spirit, the wandering feet changing paths enchanted by the bounty of nature, the hope that germinates from the ruins of past, the crunch of fallen yellow leaves beneath my boots, the green of budding leaves that dominate the pupil of the eye, the time for choosing between cold coffee (probable cold and cough) and hot lemon tea (probable burn of the throat), the joys of laying on the lawn with grass sticking to hoddies that would bid farewell soon (unless you're weird enough to wear 'em in summer cause HOODIES duh), the lazy lay in sun cause cats do have a lot in common with humans...
Autumn with falling leaves; setting suns; warm cardigans; steaming hot coffee that scaldes your tongue with the first sip; tea that reminds you of a lineage of women before you, who have sipped the same recipe, over, and over again, for comfort; baking food for yourself, and sharing it with others; running hands on the soft blanket that reminds you so much of a past that doesn't exist anymore, but was dear to your heart; Folklore and Evermore cause what's fall without TS records; looking at cats and wishing you'd be born as one if there do be a next life, and and and...

When people talk about dark academia movies they always mention Kill Your Darlings or The Dead Poets Society - i. e. films about men asserting themselves through art and homoerotic subtext between friends.
But I never hear about Mona Lisa Smile. It is a movie that just exudes da vibes + it has complex female characters in an academic setting + and it discusses the inherent mysoginy of the time.
Really, it is a wonderful movie and you're all sleeping on it

(i wrote this yesterday when it occurred)
So today I was saving pins on pinterest and the two most recent ones I added had 44 and 77. I got the feeling to combine them together and search up the angel number 4477. Also keep in mind while I was saving these I was thinking about my future and how it’s going to be amazing(you can check out my board “What my Future Looks Like” to get an idea). So I did and this is what it said: “Angel number 4477 is an encouragement to dream big. Your guardian angels are telling you not to be afraid of having great aspirations, because they will help you create the basis of your life and dreams.” And it made me super happy and I am going to work hard and manifest.
fall '23 challenge day one
day 1: what classes are you taking this semester and which are you most excited for?
I am taking 18 credits this semester split up between six classes. on mondays and wednesdays I only have one class which is digital imaging which is basically just photography. I am also helping out with the tv news class this semester.
on tuesdays and thursdays I have reporting and news writing as well as intro to video production. also I have a once a week class on tuesdays which is called journalism in film that's two and a half hours.
along with my in-person classes I am taking two asynchronous classes which are nutrition and intro to sociology. I am horrible with online classes so let's hope that I do okay in these this semester.
on top of all these I am in a sorority where I am the membership and recruitment director, I am a writer for my school's newspaper, I am a secretary for another club, and I'm trying to gauge interest for another one.
I am definitely excited for journalism in film we'll basically just be watching a bunch of movies together. I am also very excited for nutrition as it has been something I have always been interested in. Intro to video production is another one that I'm really looking forward to, because I love working with video and we get to produce variety shows at the end of it. the last one I'm excited for is sociology because I think I am going to love my professor. I think this just goes to show that I am really excited for this semester.
