It’s been a while. I’m surprised I still have followers.
I’ve written two half-posts since the last one. One of them is titled Hello, 2013. “I spent most of the year counting down to the end of the world and I’m pretty bummed that I survived it” and “I remember I used to ride the buses over and over, searching the face of every stranger, looking for something I could not name. Now I mostly lie in...

Carly's handwritten letter giveaway
findingthinagain:
I love you, my dear followers. I really do. Unfortunately, I am a poor college student and can’t afford to do a giveaway with actual substantial items. But I would like to do something, so I have decided to do a handwritten letter giveaway.
I think we all agree that letters are fantastic.
So here’s what you do.

me in my head: i'm going to get my life together and read classic novels and drink green tea and eat really healthy and wear cute outfits and make interesting artwork and spend lots of time outside. i'm going to start biking everywhere and walking and listening to lots of new indie bands that i've always wanted to listen to and take bubble baths and my life is just going to be amazing.
me in reality: well. today i think i'm going to watch netflix in my pjs and eat ice cream. and if i'm feeling really productive i might shower.

Anonymous asked: Your writing is beautiful. I stumbled upon your blog two days ago and then once I closed the window I couldn't find it again, no matter how hard I searched for it online. But by some good fortune I discovered your elusive little blog again and am now thoroughly enjoying going through every page of it while I should be working istead. The fact that you write so infrequently on here, however,...

The other day I was having a post-clubbing hot chocolate at the 24 hour cafe downtown and getting a bit of writing done. Still wearing a little red dress, but with a black button up thrown over it to tone down the sexy. I was sitting by the window as always when I saw a passerby glance at me, do a double take. He wasn’t my type, but a compliment is a compliment and here was a man standing in...

I’ve just been kicked out of the program that’s been kicking my ass. The tiny, stupid program that I tell everyone just how much I love. Honestly, I think, though I’m not sure.
I don’t know how to feel or react. What I should do next. Even though it made me damn near suicidal, it’s become a part of my identity. I’m a writing student. What am I if not that?
