Hello you, still draggin' out a long goodbye?

[mrschwartz]

hey! happy saturday and alex birthday day 🎉

5, 9 & 15 for the am ask game 🫶🏽

(side note: I love reading your posts about alex and his lyrics, especially the one about synesthesia. super interesting and made me appreciate him even more which i didnt think was possible!)

hello!! happy alex bday 💖

5. which album means the most to you?

you know what? it's am. it's the album i discovered them from, and i love every single track so so much, i'm almost always in the mood to listen to it. the instrumentals make me feel so cool and horny lmao and alex's voice is in a very sweet spot throughout the album. at this very moment i'm sooo obsessed with one for the road and knee socks it's not even funny. they unlock secret emotions

but! objectively speaking my favorite album by them is the car. but that's not the question so i won't elaborate any further lol

9. what’s the first song you heard that made you fall in love with the band? where were you when you heard it?

yeah it was do i wanna know. i remember exactly the story of how i came across it! although i had heard of them over the years i never really looked into them further. and then, on a beautiful day around march of 2014, i was on my computer browsing tumblr when i came across this post. that stupid joke made me soooo curious as to what they sound and look like lol so i searched them on youtube and, of course, this being 2014 the first song suggestion that popped up was do i wanna know. so i listened to it and i instantly loved it! and then i immediately unplugged my headphones to play it to my brother who, as soon as the song was over, asked me to play it again lol. and the rest is history

15. favourite arctic monkeys b-side?

i think it's too much to ask. it's one of my most listened to songs by them, i love the lyrics and the fingerpicking and the vulnerability

also thank you, you've very sweet!! 🥰 every time i share my thoughts about the guy i think i'm not making any sense at all, so it's really reassuring to know it resonates ❤️

[sophaeros]

just had to pop in and say thank you linking that gq video of alex during the sias era 🫶🏽 i really appreciate it!

no problem!! happy to help 🥰❤️

[ineveryspaceandtime]

it's 2.5 hours to 2024, so here's a fun lil game to end the year, with a template i found on ig!

tagging: @a-reality-dream @mrsnarl @uhbasicallyjustmilex @subtle-as-an-earthquake @shineswithyou @depressedraisin @haemoglobinheights @daddy-long-legssss @ballad-of-what-could-have-been (if you're not tagged but would like to do it too, please do so! 💖)

i don't journal as much as i'd like to (new resolution perhaps?), so i'm taking this opportunity to reflect on some of the things i've checked off on this list below the cut!

tried new foods / travelled to a new place / went to the beach / went to the mountain / watched the sunrise / watched the sunset / dyed your hair

everything above i did when i travelled to Bali! we had a LOT of good food (ayam betutu my beloved <3), including a seafood dinner on a beach during sunset; and caught the sunrise from one of the higher points in Mount Batur. but the absolute best part of that trip was that i was with my sister, and though in all honesty i was terrified we'd end up arguing (because the third member of our party cancelled, and in my head i saw him as a buffer between my sister & me), we didn't—we had a peaceful time and it was just. pure fun 💕

made new friends / laughed a lot

this one is a little bit of a surprise, because i'm an introvert, but this year in my efforts to Be Brave and Ask Questions, i've approached one particular person (who isn't from my department) a number of times, and over the year we've shared a lot of laughter & good times. unfortunately this year was her last at our workplace, but she left me a lovely little note, which i will cherish forever, i'm not even exaggerating 🥺💗

finished a book

i finished 11 books this year (out of the 32 i'd hoped to have read. sobs), but i'm checking this one off the list because of one highly enjoyable experience of devouring a book in 2.5 hours while lazing in the pool on a unicorn floatie. (was i thinking about miles and his floaties the entire time? yes, yes i was)

went to a concert

i went to three this year! the one that's most special was the strokes, because 1) i'm a baby fan, and 2) i went during the busiest work week of the year. (i completed all my work ahead of time so i could fully enjoy myself!) the crowd was amazing, the vibes were immaculate, and i had the best time, even though i was vibing so hard i ended up spilling my drink down my own leg. it's also the concert where julian imitated alex. lol

gained weight

i'm the heaviest i've ever been, and i've accepted it as part of growing older (goodbye metabolism, you were so good to me). on the bright side, i think i might also be the fittest i've ever been!

danced

dancing w my favourite people before a concert, and seeing another initially subdued group noticing us & then letting loose was one of the top 5 experiences of the year for me tbh

made a big decision

i was asked sometime in october whether i'd like to join one of the key committees next year, and i told my boss that i'd like to take on the challenge, bc it was something i knew i would enjoy doing. even though it didn't work out in the end (because a new KP has just joined us, and her credentials are far better suited to the role), i'm glad i didn't immediately reject the offer, just because it would have meant more (and more difficult) work.

grieved

strangely, something i'm finding more difficult than grieving the people i've lost is grieving the life i might have had, even though the decision i made was one i knew to be right.

learned new skills

i had an idea to streamline some of our work processes, and i figured out how to do it all on my own. i love you online tutorials <3

if you've stuck around this far, gosh. why. also, love you <3
