Bible

This is the first page of my newly created Radical Self Love Bible, inspired by beautiful Blogger gala darling.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it or how its going to turn out (I'm not artistic at all), but I wrote s whole book in 33 days; creating a shrine to the beauty of myself should be... do-able.

If you're interested, please join in and keep in touch! I think this is a fantastic, beautiful idea and can't wait to get into it.

Wish me luck and love

Beautiful Blogs :: the whimsical gala darling

Gala Darling invites you to play.

This is my new favorite blog.
I can't help it.

I know I'm going to be spending the next two weeks pouring over every article and podcast, taking notes and soaking everything in.

The inspiration I look for in Francesca Lia Blocks books I find in this blog, bright and pink and glittery (and also, I think, somewhat inspired by FLB).
She writes about "radical self love" and tells us to be great to ourselves and always remember to love ourselves.
It's an easy thing to forget.

But with everything from images of outfits, to ideas to be happy and beautiful, to style tips and wonderful links, Gala Darling has created a massive, amazing blog that will pull you in and capture your beauty-loving soul, encouraging your happiness and -- of course-- self-love.

You'll probably see quite a few things relating back to gala darling in the next month or so (likely beginning with my own "Self Love Bible". 

With how bland and miserable I've been this past week, I'm ecstatic to find this wonderful source of inspiration and beauty. 
You'll see, it's going to be fantastic.

Empty

The past few weeks have been dull and empty.
Before Thanksgiving I was full of excitement.
Harry Potter was coming. Dan's birthday was coming. Thanksgiving was coming. The end of school was coming. Christmas was coming, for science's sake.
Everything was great and exciting.

But as the first few things came to pass, one after another, things weren't as pleasant and care-free as I'd originally thought they'd be, and life wasn't nearly as exciting.

Now I've been bored and lazy. The apartment is a mess and my novel still hasn't been edited.

And now I have the desperate urge to run and skate and dance and do anything. But none of the will to actually get the fuck up and do any of those things.

I want a life of beauty and love and...life! Why is it so hard for me to just get up and make these things myself?

What is holding me back?
