About Me

"Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
21 year old cat obsessed synaesthete .
a messy perfectionist who thinks too much.
i love my cats and i'm always late.
happiest when laughing, cuddling or eating cake. simultaneously, or individually, it doesn't matter.
combination of laid back don't-care-ishness and worrying about everything and nothing.
and maybe i'm too honest, but i don't have time for people who aren't.
here, have a pinch of salt.
i like the small things:
the good-
scarlett o'hara impressions // watching bus drivers wave to each other // christmas in edinburgh // dancing in the rain barefoot in pyjamas // staying up all night talking about nothing and everything // the smell of mud and freshly cut grass // 2004 // autumn 2002 // good eyebrows // pigs that say meow // old disney films // the way that chocolate in the morning tastes like christmas // cat breath // wine bottle candles // falling down and laughing so much that you can't get up again // handwritten letters // throwing surprise parties // ruby slippers // pinky promises // kisses on the forehead // nose kisses // falling asleep on someone and being carried to bed // posh english public schoolboy accents // things that divide perfectly by three //
the bad-
the impossibility of perfection // my physicality // drunken me // people touching my feet // fluffy hair in the rain // writer's block // my cheeks // boredom // people not trusting me // bad first (or second or third) impressions // apostrophe abuse // ignorance // cat poo //
~a load of rubbish.
