Five Things

1. I read the Sunday Styles section religiously. I read every article and look forward to it every week. It's really amazing. Because I am fascinated with advice columns, love stories, fashion, and New York City, there's no better option (except perhaps living there, and working for the paper itself?).

2. I love having nothing planned on the weekends. A day where I can make a lazy lunch and read a book is the best kind of day. I am stretched so thin during the week that I covet weekends with nothing to do and no one to see. Does this make me an introvert? I dunno, but it's just me.

3. I use wooden pencils (exclusively), and sharpen them with my little sharpener. I don't care if it makes me look like a first-grader, I simply cannot use mechanical pencils. Everyone in my school uses "Sumo Grip" pencils but I think every one that I ever bought I broke within a month. I have a old plastic box filled with sparkly or princess or Halloween pencils that I have collected over the years, and replace the small used pencils continually. My math teacher (whom I adore) pointed me out in class one day, saying something along the lines of "You never really did transition into mechanical pencils." #true

4. The Great Gatsby is amazing. Sorry not sorry for jumping onto that bandwagon but actually I just really connect with it on such a personal level. I feel like I can be an observer just like Nick Carraway, and his oddness is really refreshing. And on another note, I love love love Leo in the movie. Love! And my love hate relationship with Daisy Buchanan is as real as life itself.

"All the bright precious things fade so fast… and they don’t come back." --F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby 

5. British accents are my addiction. Guilty as charged. So the fact that I want to study abroad in London really should not be very surprising. I love watching youtubers like JacksGap and Will Darbyshire for my weekly dose of British culture.

Cheerio! Hopefully more posts about ME in the future.
