About Me

In mourning; it is the world which has become poor and empty.
In melancholia it is the ego itself.
- Sigmund Freud.
I want a masters in journalism, I want to explore linguistics.
I want to write more, I want to read more.
I want to inspire, I want to be inspired.
... I'm greedy.
I love my boyfriend Bobby very much, he restored my faith in people. Things aren't right when I'm not with him, but everything will change when I move down to Essex. It's a bit scary, all this grown-up stuff, but very exciting too.
We're pretty awesome.
I love him with all my heart and internal organs.
He's my pickle. Everything changed when he came into my life.
I don't know what I'd do without him.

For some reason, you will no longer be the person you believed you once were. You'll detect slow and subtle shifts going on all around you, more importantly shifts in you. Worse, you'll realize it's always been shifting, like a shimmer of sorts, a vast shimmer, only dark like a room. But you won't understand why or how.
House of Leaves [Mark z. Danielewski]
