Made this for my bestie’s birthday a while ago 💖✨ I’d actually planned to do this in watercolour and try splashing around more loosely, but I quite liked how it looked in my digital sketch plan so I ended up doing it digitally! Swipe for the original plan and timelapse 🥰 [ID: Digital illustration showing line drawings of three pairs of feet, connected by a golden thread. They stand around lettering reading ‘No matter how far apart our paths may take us, I hope we will always meet again’. The background is white with colourful paint splashes.] 🏷 TAGS: #DigitalHandLettering #DigitalLettering #HandLettering #PaintableCommunity #BirthdayDoodle #ProcreateLettering #ProcreateDoodle #BirthdayDrawing #LetterToAFriend #DigitalSketching #FriendshipCelebration #DigitalArtSketch #DigitalSketchbook #DigitalSketches #FriendshipsArePrecious #ShoeDrawing #LineDrawing #StylisedDrawing #StylisedIllustration #FriendshipLove #DigitalLineDrawing #FriendshipLettering #ProcreateSketch #OriginalQuote #HandLetteringNewbie #DigitalLetteringPractice #PaintSplashes #DigitalWatercolour #PaperPlaneNomad #AsianArtists https://www.instagram.com/p/Cik92_kI4Mx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

a letter to what once was

i may not have the hope that you'll see this, and you can call me a coward for keeping this hidden somewhere in the corners of the internet, but i just need to let this out (somewhere and somehow) so as to let go. first and foremost, thank you. thank you for the eight years of companionship—one where authenticity, trust, and love existed alongside pain and misunderstandings. we saw different versions of ourselves and that's what love's all about anyway, right? strangely enough, witnessing a thousand deaths of who we used to be has been such a pleasure. on the other hand, it made me realize the painful truth of growth and change: that sometimes friendships (even the best ones) find themselves standing at a crossroads. but even if we've gone our separate ways, i'd like to think we'll keep holding on to our fondness for what we once had and what once was. i'm always thinking of you, too, no matter where this silly thing called life takes us. take care of yourself always. with much love, y

My Soxy Collection

To my dear Sock Buddy, I have the utmost respect for people who appreciate funky socks. Believe it or not, I actually do not own a single pair of black/white or single-colored socks. I started collecting funky socks (yes, I collect them and they’re called my “Soxy Collection”) towards the end of my senior year of high school. By my Sophomore year of college, I had quite the impressive collection…

Γράμμα σε έναν μεταναστεύων φίλο

Δεν ήρθα να σε αποχαιρετήσω. Κάπου εκεί ανάμεσα στη δική μου επιστροφή και τη δική σου αναχώρηση βρέθηκα μετέωρη και νευρική, να αναπολώ στο σαλόνι ανάμεσα σε σβησμένα τσιγάρα και σκόνη ημερών τις φορές εκείνες που πλύθηκα, ντύθηκα και βγήκα αμέριμνα σχεδόν για ένα ποτό, αυτό το τελευταίο ποτό πριν την αναχώρηση, πριν την αλλαγή - ανάμεσα σε αδέξια τσουγκρίσματα, βεβιασμένα χαμόγελα κι ένα κόμπο στο λαιμό. Ίσως για σένα αυτό να δείχνει αδιαφορία, για μένα, τώρα πια γνωρίζω, πως είναι αδυναμία. Και δεν το λέω αυτό με περηφάνια, ούτε καν με αυτοπεποίθηση. Το λέω ειλικρινά και εν είδη επεξήγησης, ή και εξομολόγησης, σαν η αποχώρησή σου να είναι η αφορμή για έναν απολογισμό της δικής μου παραμονής και του δικού σου αναπόφευκτου φευγιού. 

Σε θαυμάζω. Για την αφοβία σου, την αφοσίωσή σου, για την ωριμότητα και την ανεμελιά παράλληλα, με τις οποίες αφήνεις πίσω σου όλα αυτά που ξέρεις, για να κάνεις ένα άλμα πάνω από ένα κενό που φαίνεται μεγάλο μα που δεν ξέρεις αν τελικά μπορείς να το καλύψεις. Ίσως να ναι όσο ο διασκελισμός σου, ίσως να ‘ναι χιλιόμετρα, ίσως να ξέρεις να πετάς, κι ίσως να πέσεις, μα είσαι σίγουρη πως θα προσγειωθείς στα πόδια σου, κι αν όχι τζογάρεις, κι αυτό είναι αξιοθαύμαστο.  Ζηλευτό και γενναίο είναι, να αδράχνεις τις ευκαιρίες που σου δίνονται, να αφήνεις πίσω το γνώριμο και να αγκαλιάζεις το ξένο, αυτό που εκτυλίσσεται σε άλλη ζώνη ώρας, με άλλη γλώσσα και σκληρό καπιταλισμό. Γιατί κακά τα ψέματα, μεταναστεύεις. Κυνηγάς το άπιαστο όνειρο της καλύτερης ζωής, των περισσότερων χρημάτων, της μεγαλύτερης ελευθερίας, του απογαλακτισμού. Είναι το νεαρό της ηλικίας σου, η περιέργεια που έχεις έμφυτη, η απόγνωση που έχει ριζώσει στην καρδιά σου. 

Ποιος ξέρει αν εκεί που θα πας θα είναι καλά. Ούτε εσύ γνωρίζεις, ούτε εγώ μπορώ να σου πω. Θα σου πω να προσέχεις. Θα σου πω ότι το ‘χεις και μη φοβάσαι τίποτα. Θα σου πω να ΄χεις τα μάτια σου ανοιχτά και να ακούς τον κόσμο δυο φορές σ’αυτά που λέει, σ’αυτά που κάνει. Θα σου πω να απολαμβάνεις τις στιγμές και να γυρεύεις συνεχώς την ομορφιά, ιδίως όταν το σκοτάδι κατακλύζει την ψυχή σου και η μοναξιά γίνεται αβάσταχτη. Θα σου πω ότι καλοί άνθρωποι υπάρχουν παντού μα είναι λίγοι, έσω επιφυλακτική. Θα σου πω μάθε, στύψε τους εργοδότες σου, αξιοποίησε τους συναδέλφους σου και πάλεψε για τη θέση σου. Κι ύστερα, αφού στα πω όλα αυτά, θα σου πω και να τα ξεχάσεις. Να κάνεις πως δεν τα άκουσες και να κινηθείς όπως εσύ ξερεις και νομίζεις. Γιατί είσαι μια γυναίκα δυνατή και έξυπνη. Ξέρεις, έχεις δει και σ’ έχω δει κι εγώ να βλέπεις. 

Κι αν μέσα σου σκεφτείς “Ποια είσαι εσύ που νομίζεις ότι ξέρεις;” Θα σου απαντήσω, είμαι μια φίλη σου, που ίσως δεν ξέρει, αλλά σε σκέφτεται. Μια φίλη σου που δεν έφυγε ποτέ, μα πάντα φεύγει. Μια φίλη σου που είδε τους φίλους της να φεύγουν, κάποιους για άλλους ουρανούς και κάποιους για γεωγραφικά μήκη και πλάτη ξένα. Μια φίλη σου που ακούει στο τηλέφωνο και στα πληκτρολόγια τα αδιέξοδα και τις επιτυχίες άλλων ανθρώπων που άφησαν τον αττικό ήλιο και το Αιγαίο Πέλαγος για όνειρα και φιλοδοξίες ανυπόστατες σ’ αυτό το χώμα. Είμαι μια φίλη που σε συναισθάνεται και με όλη της την ψυχή σου εύχεται καλό ταξίδι. Κι αν δεν ήρθα να σ’ αποχαιρετήσω συγχώρα με για την αδυναμία μου και να θυμάσαι πως θα ‘μαι εδώ να σε υποδεχτώ όταν με το καλό αποφασίσεις να νιώσεις τον καυτό ήλιο και τη δροσερή θάλασσα, τα τηγανητά καλαμαράκια και τη ζεστασιά ενός ποτού μια καλοκαιρινή νύχτα στο Παγκράτι.

Yes, babe, of course it hurt. Of course I hoped he'd feel the same way. But he is a good man and he shows me that  getting rejected doesn't have to mean getting humiliated.

Dear Rani, But looking at the Eiffel tower, Your heart was crying, you felt lonely, you knew you wished to have a happy beginning of your married life with Vijay, but Rani life had something else and something amazing to offer you. You enjoyed traveling, you made friends whose language you couldn't understand but you all communicated with your heart and that's what made the best of friends. You were mad at vijay but still you decided to meet him but you stood up again for yourself and rejected him on his face which was a stunning lesson for not just women, for all the people around world. When you came back to india, you came back with not just souvenir but with tons of memories and lastly a new different, independent, spectacular personality. Thank you for being an inspiration for millions of people and being a messenger that adversity can change you in a great manner. - Manasi Manasi Verma (@manasi_verma ), our open letter participant writes a admiration letter to Rani from Queen (@queenthemovie ). 👸♥️ . . . . . #merrative #bookstagram #openletter #queenmovie #rani #kanganaranaut #kangana #moviescenes #movierecommendation #fictionalcharacters #moviecharacters #lettertoafriend #letterchallenge #letteringdaily #letterslovers #letterart #letteringlover #lettering #letterwriting (at Paris, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMBnLZmAFNI/?igshid=op6rtfvh60xv

I’ve never been to therapy in my life. As an over-thinker prone to stress and depression... therapy seems logical. But for me, writing is that therapy. Whether it’s writing a song, a letter or an Instagram post... somehow just working through everything on paper makes all the difference. What’s your unconventional therapy that helps you work through stuff? What keeps you sane now that we’re all locked away at home? #music #writing #songwriting #therapy #therapeutic #thinking #depression #coping #letter #stress #anxiety #anxietyrelief #calming #lettertoafriend #selflove #popmusic #songwriter #musician #electricguitar #creativity #artistic #handwriting (at London, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAs88WvFzOg/?igshid=acz6g1b8s6e9

In a 1968 letter to Mary Wickes, Lucille shares her observations about the current state of fashion and youth culture while in London: 'She writes that other than some cashmere items and some coats for Lucie and Desi Jr., all she has purchased on her trip is perfume. That's about all that makes sense in London, she tells Mary, "unless you are buying for the mad, mad, mod group. You should see some of these unbelievable 'getups' on some of these 'birds' over here. Skirts either up to the upper thighs or down midcalf with goucho boots and Spanish Don hats-and ratty, real ratty furs and you just don't believe it!! London is disastrous for young people these days. They are falling on their faces, after all the adulation they have had as forerunners of fashion these last three years, and now they don't know what to do next because they are losing ground and, too, the drug situation has depleted them - their energy is sapped. The suicide rate is way up and disease rate is too terrible and homosexuals, now legal, are finding it hard going-they made it legal but damned uncomfortable."' -Mary Wickes, 'I Know I've Seen That Face Before' by Steve Taravella #lucilleball #lucyinlondon #modfashion #60sfashion #fashion #shopping #lettertoafriend https://www.instagram.com/p/B3cinZgHeKW/?igshid=17jei9w7lk2rn

Sent a postcard to a friend the other day. I made it with a collection of random stuff I had on my desk and doodled on it to fill the page. It was fun to make, but even more fun to send away. 😊 . . . #letters #handmade #ididit #diy #diypostcard #goodtime #centering #doodles #stickers #papercraft #postcard #lettertoafriend #fightingdepression #poop2017

@owlsshadows tagged me to do this again:

Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Pick out the title that most intrigues you, or interests you and I’ll post a little snippet of it or tell you something about it!! 

So here we go:

I have managed to clear out the fanfic WIP folder a little, but I still have a file with 30 outlines, most of which will never see the light of day lmao

To make things more interesting, I’ve also gone and looked through my original writing folders for WIP files (I actually sort them by smth other than whether they are in progress or not lol), and here’s what I found:

So, since I feel like it, I’ll tell you guys about “WdGGT_rewrite_deutsch”, which is the second draft of my novel. WdGGT stands for “Wend der Geist Gottes treibt...” (paraphrased from Romans 8:14 “For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.” which was the bible verse I chose for my confirmation). It’s a story that is very dear to my heart, because it’s about finding acceptance as an LGBT teenager at church.

Good Bye, Friend

Everyone who I’ve felt strongly about—whether family, friends, romantic relationships, or something in between—have all left me with something, after we parted ways, that will follow me for a long time, if not the rest of my life. As for you, it’s a few things. It’s you consistently taking the time to express gratitude for something, anything—even if it doesn’t directly impact you. It’s your care…
