eighteen.
family,friends,music are all i need.
This year Im studying at JMC academy doing a popular music and performance course. I absolutely love it there.
I spend my life going to gigs and listening to cynical music, but I wouldnt have it any other way.
Not long ago, I got back from a trip around the world in 6 weeks. I would have to say it was one of the most amazing experiences i have ever had.
nintendo 64 + mario kart + skittles = best night
moths should all go and die.
Peanut Butter is amazing.
the end.
can we? shall we?
one day very soon,
let us go away together
just you and me.
can we? shall we?
call in sick one day and
travel to the sea and
hold hands all day.
can we? shall we?
eat our sandwiches on the train,
get drunk on fresh air and
come home tired and
never tell anyone... ever.
some randoms video. but i was there. and steph and i did THOSE moves. and we were way closer then this. rad.

with the right shades, this could really work.

I'm sinking yet again. But this time into something I've never felt before. A place where all the endless rants and fake smiles of strangers seem almost real. A place that leaves me with nothing but a...
