Too Much of a Good Thing

Chloe, "that girl is like a sunburn".
Not enough people let themselves inside their own heads. Welcome to mine.

Simplicity is simple.
“I can’t wait until the day I get to stare into the sunflowers in your eyes again” - soulmate
Radios play through their ears bursting ecstasy Those who escape party down in the yards.
Swept off my feet and catapulted to the stars.
Self portrait
I unpacked the boxes slowly, nervous I wouldn’t have enough room for my things I bought garage sale throw pillows that matched the walls the lease said I couldn’t paint. I strung white lights around the windows and hung my paintings above the bed I bought a cheap desk at Target and assembled it with my mom. At last, the room felt like my own, complete with wind chimes and a dream catcher. I was finally comfortable with waking up in a space smaller than most of my friend’s closets Because the space was mine, every inch was a reminder that I made the best of a bad situation. But tomorrow, I have to pack it all away. I have to take down all my paintings and fill the holes in the wall, I have to pack up my little Volkswagen with my entire life I worked so hard to make for myself.  I have to readjust to the home I left several years ago, the home that holds so many memories- good and bad. I have to hang my paintings up on my once yellow walls, that my grandmother painted over in brown the second I left. I have to leave my tiny room. My room where the sun filters through the shades and wakes me up each morning.  I didn’t ask for any of this. I didn’t ask to come here & I didn’t ask to leave. I just want to stay in one place. I want to stay in this place In my place. But tomorrow I have to leave.
Soon Enough

I will be really really good at something. And people will be like “How did you do that?” And then I will explain with great pride. I’m just not sure exactly what it is that I will be good at yet, but I can feel it coming.

Today I Love…

… Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton, New Jersey. I went there today with my boyfriend, my mom, and my best friend’s mom. We walked around for about three hours and took pictures of everything. That is definitely one of my favorite places. I’m going to post more pictures from today because they are so great…well at least I think so.
