Hey hi hello, just dropping in to say that I’ve decided to part ways with my vinyl of 5sos’ self-titled album. It’s up on eBay, but it’s not cheap, so I won’t link it directly. If anyone’s interested though, I’d be more than happy to privately message the listing.

Also, I went to Florence last year (just like in my last 5sos oneshot if anyone reading this has happened to have read that) and if I didn’t love alpha cities so much, I’d prob live there tbh.

P.S. If you haven’t already, y’all should read The Raven Cycle books by Maggie Stiefvater.

Hi all, whether or not you’ve noticed, this blog hasn’t been updated in a long while and probably will continue to stay that way. As someone with a (mostly) 5sos blog who has almost no interest in 5sos anymore, I’m sure you can understand why. I’ll still keep this blog (and maybe pop in once in a while), so should anyone want to (re)visit my writing, you’re more than welcome to do so.

I know I was never the most personable blog, but for anyone who might be interested, you can find me here from now on. The content will probably be more or less the same as what I’d post here, just without 5sos and with more openness probably since I won’t have to worry about someone finding out that I was writing 5sos fic on the internet haha. Alternatively, I’m also on Twitter and Instagram, so feel free to ask for those if you’d like.

While I almost completely don’t care about 5sos anymore, because of them, I’ve had a lot of good experiences and the experiences I’ve had from starting this blog is no exception. If you’re someone who followed me for my writing and actively stuck around despite my inactivity (because hey, maybe you follow so many people that you didn’t even notice or care) – thank you. Will I pursue writing as a way of making a living? Probably not. But starting this blog gave me subjects to write about for fun and a place to share that writing with people. Every kind comment has truly meant so much to me, so thank you again. :)

you were like a summer storm you could see it coming from afar and it was over so fast you can’t believe it even happened you only see the traces it leaves behind

The ACLU has filed a lawsuit on behalf on people being detained at U.S. airports with valid visas to enter the country. If you are financially able, please donate to the ACLU to help support these Muslim refugees.

Wait for someone who bumps mouths clumsily with yours cos they’re too busy smiling to kiss you properly. Yeah. Wait for that.

Had a dream that McDonald’s had a big ad campaign that just said “WE HAVE IT” in black cryptic writing. So I went to a drive thru and said “I saw the sign. Can I have it” and the speaker was silent for a solid ten seconds before saying “do you think you’re ready” in my voice and I screamed and drove away

we love to glorify best friends who fall apart, but what’s sadder is two people who never were friends to begin with. because you’ve had a chance with your best friend, you’ve tried being with each other, but all the pinky promises in the world can’t erase the fact that she’s the sun and you’re the moon and you two just weren’t meant to exist in the same sky.

but maybe the guy who sits behind you in chem class could have been your real best friend if only you’d talked to him. maybe the girl who was reading the same book as you on the subway could have been your future love. and all it took was one missed opportunity, one moment of possibility that died when you swallowed your words. maybe you could have been more than stars gathered in different constellations, strangers sent adrift on diverging paths, never knowing what could have been.

I got my heart broken and I survived, I failed 3 courses in university and graduated, I got rejected in the very first job I applied for and got promoted yesterday, I went through hard times with my family but then two years later, we laughed our hearts out over lunch, The closest friends disappointed me several times but I made new friends and loved them with all my heart. I did it once, I can do it again.

Guys, Direct Relief (directrelief.org) is one of the highest-rated charities with 99% of donated money going directly to their programs. As I’m sure you’ve heard, Aleppo is about to be completely destroyed. DO is assisting with the Syrian Refugee Crisis and can use all the help they can get. If you are in a position to donate, please do so.

Whether or not you can donate, please reblog.
