Little known fact: sperrys are actually made from the skin old tan Floridians.
I have an irrational dislike of girls whose legs are so skinny that they don’t fill out their running shorts. Like, I feel no animosity towards their weight, I’m slightly above that. But like do they not sell a smaller size? Or do you just like the sound of baggy polyester-taffeta swishing between your legs?
Yesterday I dreamt that JK Rowling had written 3 more HP books and was planning on writing another and they were like a mix of the Maurader Era and the adventures of Harry’s kids.
and then I woke up and wallowed in empty sadness.
Say what you want about the twilight movies, but they have awesome movie soundtracks
Anonymous asked: what books do you recommend for me?
When since i dont know even who you are “anon” i’ll just suggest some that i have read and enjoyed the most.
1. The Brief and Wonderous Life of Oscar Wao- Junot Diaz (This is my favorite book. There are so many stories [mainly centered around the Dominican Republic which i learned sooooo much about, like did you know that had a dictator who was akin to Hitler!?] within stories with so many layers, it’s like eating rich chocolate cake and it’s told in such an amazing way with the great integration of spanish and english)
2. The Kite Runner-Khaled Hosseini (don’t skip over this just because you think “nah boring grown up book.” Because really, a good part of it is in the perspective of a little boy. And also you can get a really good scope of what life is/was like in the Middle East. And there were like fifty million crazy twists.)
3. Jesusland-Julia Scheeres (kind of anti religious… contains much teenage bad-assery.. but still a really interesting—and true—story.)
4.The Probability of Miracles-Wendy Wunder (Yes, it’s a cancer book, but, the wittiest most hilarious cancer books I’ve ever read. Take all you preconceived notions about cancer books that you learned from the futile scribblings of Nicholas Sparks and just throw those away.)
5. Legend- Marie Lu (similar to the Hunger Games when it comes to dystopian societies. and teenage romances…)
6. The Perks of Being a Wallflower- Stephen Chbosky (the main character is just such a cute person, though it wasn’t exactly and accurate depiction of your average high school freshman year)
7. The Magicians- Lev Grossman (Harry Potter meets the Chronicles of Narnia meets Catcher in the Rye)
8. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children- Ransom Riggs (I actually found the first 2 chapters when i was trolling in the deep of the internet a year ago, and i was obsessed with it, and i went to the book store the day it came out and none of the people had any clue what i was talking about, now it’s a nytimes bestseller. Also it has tons of real vintage pictures that the author scavenged from yard sales and such.)
9. The Fault in Our Stars- John Green (Just read all things John Green really.)
10. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn- Betty Smith (kind of old… but a classic really, or at least the library tells me so.. it’s a story of this girl from Brooklyn in the 1910’s-20’s and it’s just so beautiful and rich and full of life and the resilience of her family.)
11. Elixir- Hillary Duff (yeah! lizzie mcguire writes books :D and great ones at that. i read this in like a week..)
12. The Pretty Little Liars Series- Sara Shepard (if you’re a girl… and dont judge me even if they sound like catty and petty and not worth your higher literary needs, because they are some of the fastest paced and most entralling books! plus if you’re trying to read a certain number of books for a goal or something these are ideal; i read the series whole in close to a week.)
13. Memoirs of a Geisha- Arthur Golden

"The only person I really wanted to talk to about Augustus Water’s death was Augustus Waters."
- The Fault in Our Stars (By: John Green, aka the master of building tender happiness and then blowing it up with poignant missiles of sadness)
Furthermore, I’m listening to the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 soundtrack, and I’m just having too many feels to function

I alienate myself from Harry Potter because when I read parts of the books or see parts of the movies I get horrendously sad that it’s over.
So I have a 92.4 in science.
I need a 92.5 to have an A.
Grades are unfair little buggers that slowly devour your soul.
So… I want Michael Phelps life/future. In an interview I watched of him today he was talking about how after this year’s Olympics, he’s going to retire and just travel the world and do what he wants because he can. And there’s nothing holding him back, he’ll likely hold the world record for most medals ever won in the Olympic games and he’ll have practically unlimited cash from sponsors and advertisements. So he can truly rest on his laurels.That just sounds like pure bliss. And he’s only 26!
