I wanna still have a sharp pen, and a thin skin, and an open heart.

[l-esprit-de-l-escalier]

Words, Alive

I often find myself wondering

If the best food for poetry;

If the words seek to leach

The deepest of sorrows from the abyss of my heart,

The fervent racing passion that thrums and pounds in my veins,

Or the highest flying joys that dance through the open expanse of my soul.

Any way they are alive

Of the emotions sucked from my body to my pen.

Endou: Alright, give me your hair dryer.

Touko: What are you talking about?

Endou: Don't you carry one in your bag?

Touko: Have you ever met a human woman?

Endou [later] : Hey, do you have a hair dryer in your bag?

Rika: Of course, I'm not an animal.

Is nobody talking bout the post credits ending of To All The Boys I’ve Loved before? I mean, what the hell is John Fucking Ambrose from Model UN doin there standing in the doorway with the letter and a bouquet when my ship just got together?

You know what I like most about To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before? The fact that, despite her letters getting out, it didn’t become a public embarrassment fiasco that so many YA narratives center around. The boys knew, but then, that’s it? The popular girls don’t tease her. The boys don’t even really make it into a Thing. What so easily could have been a public isolation opportunity, instead gets turned into a vehicle to push her towards more people. Towards new experiences. Not embarrassment, but engagement.

[Jughead and Archie are getting arrested.]

Archie: What about my Miranda rights? You’re supposed to say, “You have the right to remain silent.” Nobody said I have the right to remain silent!

Jughead: Archie, you HAVE the right to remain silent. What you lack is the capacity.

I think if the Greenhouse Academy Fandom can agree on anything, it’s that we all hate Aspen.

Spoilers for Greenhouse Academy S1 E12

My favorite part of season 1 may just be when Alex, Jackie and Sophie went all protective over Hayley after everything that happened with Leo and Aspen and were just like “Eat Cake, bitches.” and “Oh. You’re allergic? My bad. Sorry not sorry.” It was epic and I loved their friendship and solidarity.

Greenhouse Academy: NOOOOooOoOo

that cliffhanger at the end of season 2 has completely ruined my life. i need to know...WHO WAS AT THE DOOR?! Leo or Daniel? 

Of course Leo knows where she lives, has had feelings for her for a looong time despite his mistakes, confessed that he loved her and allowed her to initiate contact coz personally I kinda think that the hug that Hayley drew him into had more meaning than Daniel’s surprise kiss.

And Daniel. I love Daniel too but there is that itty bitty thing that he dated Brooke and tortured Alex in the beginning of the year. Can you imagine how that conversation would go? “Hey bro, I’m dating your girlfriend’s ex boyfriend who made your life hell.” Awkward. It may sound like I’m making a case for Leo (maybe I am coz there are so many more negatives to the Daniel scenario) but they’ve only known each other for tops 5 days before which they hated each other. 

What do you think?
