i find dishes to be the more sisyphean task than laundry but. your tags. just kept going. and i was so completely enraptured. I've never met someone who hates laundry as passionately as i hate dishes. you almost convinced me to vote laundry instead of dishes because your tales of woe completely swept me away before i realized I'd already voted. you're still wrong, but i just want you to know that your words are utterly compelling.
i’m glad that my plight managed to bring you some amusement :’)
#moi#lmfaoooo#ask#anon#i have been desperately trying to figure out what to get rid of and it’s just. so hard. so exhausting.#i want to hoard everything bc ‘well i might wear it or need it someday!’#and even the things i don’t like i’m like. tripped up by guilt bc i’ve never even worn them.#*stares at horrible dress pants i got in high school that i never wore once and i think look terrible on me*#bc that’s the whole problem#i just have too much fucking clothing and it enables me#like in college i had like. two sets of utensils. three bowls. one plate.#(i had more than one plate but only one of them had the pretty blue flowers so i only wanted to use the one)#one pot.#if it’s the only one you got you’re gonna wash the damn thing#but also if it’s the only one you’ve got well. it’s only one dish. washing it isn’t so bad.#the problem with trying to apply that to clothing is that i like clothing a lot more than i like cooking#also in college i had an easier time with laundry bc i just didn’t have as much of it and i had like.#specifically only brought things that were easy to care for#like jeans and tshirts and sweaters were perfectly fine for my purposes#but i LIKE nice clothing#high quality clothing just feels nicer to wear and it looks nice#but it’s also harder to care for and it takes up more space#and since i actually have a Fashion Preference noe#(which i didn’t really in college)#it’s just gotten out of hand#i just need to start letting things goooooo

When In Italy
It has been three months since you’ve last seen or spoken to Harry. A very abrupt change after being together for four years, with constant talk of marriage and starting a family, the break up was something either of you really expected. It started as a break of sorts, eventually turning into a complete break up after only a couple weeks in a somewhat mutual way. With Harry's career taking off in so many different ways, with acting, the new tour and more, his life had changed completely and has left him very little time for anything else.
It went from daily phone and FaceTime calls, constant text messages and flowers being delivered to nothing.
“You really think that’s a good idea?” Your best friend asked you, concern plastered all over her face, “that won’t bring up too much?”
She had been sitting with you as you finished packing up your suitcase, trying her best to give you her support as you were going to be going on a spur of the moment trip to Italy and staying at the home of you and Harry, needing the much needed getaway and disconnecting completely. Seeing different things online about him all the time didn’t make it any easier and no matter how hard you tried to avoid it, he always found his way to pop up.
“I just need a break, everything here is a reminder to.” You sigh, “I just want a change of scenery. I think it’ll be good for me.”
“I hope so…” she frowned, looking up at you with a sad smile, “please don’t just sit there in the house all alone. Go out, meet some local Italian men!”
“I’m definitely not ready for that.” You say, forcing a laugh as you close your suitcase, zipping it up and placing it on the floor by your door, “but I will really try, I promise. I will call you if I need you and you can come out?”
“Hell yeah I can.” She laughs, standing up and giving you a hug, “and you’re really going right now?”
You bite your bottom lip as your eyes fill up with tears, nodding quickly as you look at her and she quickly pulled you in a tight hug.
“You can do this.”
***
You pulled your suitcase through the front door, waving goodbye to the driver as you turned around to close the door behind you as they left you alone in the house that has so many memories inside. You pause at the door, taking a couple deep breaths as you look around and try and keep your mind at bay before walking to the guest bedroom, deciding the main bedroom was too much and the guest bedroom was already way nicer than your apartment.
After taking the time to unpack, knowing you would stay awhile, you put away your things into the various drawers and closet in the room. You keep out a swimsuit and change into it quickly, sliding a simple dress overtop before walking out onto the balcony attached to the bedroom, taking in the smell of the ocean and beautiful view, memories overwhelming your senses.
“Well don’t you look absolutely stunning.” You can practically hear him say all over again, reliving the memory as if it was actually happening, “ ‘m the luckiest man in the world.”
You remember him coming up behind you, arms tight around your waist as his head rested on your shoulder, soft kisses being pressed along your shoulder as you leaned back into him, a large smile covering both of your faces before you leaned your head back, connecting your lips before he pulled back.
“I can’t decide…” He had whispered, connecting your lips again.
“Decide what?” You had giggled, turning around to face him, arms resting around his shoulders as his came around your waist.
“If I want to get married here or have our honeymoon here.”
You shuddered slightly as the memory came back, letting out a deep breath before packing a beach bag quickly and leaving the house just as fast, taking a walk down to the private beach and settling yourself in a lounge chair. Applying your sunscreen you could almost convince yourself it was him applying it on you like he always would do, large hands massaging it into your skin.
You push the thought away as you grab your phone, playing music softly to try and distract your mind. Your fingers hovered over your different social media apps, wanting desperately to just give it a quick click, wondering if you could get any update on where he could be from his fans, posts always finding their way on your feed. Instead, you hold it down, deleting all of the various apps and throwing your phone down on your bag, grabbing your book and letting the music play, opening to the first page to try and escape into the new world.
***
After a few hours been spent peacefully on the beach, you decided to head back to the house to take a nice bubblebath and order yourself some dinner, deciding that you would go to town the next morning in order to cook some of your own meals. The walk back to the house was more enjoyable this time and you began to feel a sense of hope as you approached the house, your heart not clenching in as much pain as it originally had done when you first pulled up to the house earlier that day.
Using your keys, you unlocked the back door, locking it behind you again as soon as you got inside, making your way to the bathroom right away and letting the water fill up the bathtub, pouring in some of the fancy bubblebath that you remember buying once from your favorite boutique in town, making a mental note to stop there again tomorrow.
Discarding your clothes, you hung them up, deciding you could use it once more as a cover up after not even going into the water, and you honestly didn’t even have the energy to even think about doing laundry right now, even simply showering was too much most days so you were happy to submerge yourself simply into the warm water, eyes fluttering closed as it embraced you with it’s comfort.
You began preparing yourself a mental list of things you could do tomorrow, forcing yourself to get out of the house and keep yourself occupied after locking yourself away in your apartment the past few months, planning on taking baby steps but knowing that even starting will be more like a push off a cliff.
Pulling yourself out of the bath once finishing cleansing your body, deciding to save washing your hair for the next day, you pulled yourself out of the bath, honestly just wanting to curl up into bed and go to sleep but knowing you needed to force yourself to eat something. So, you dry off, applying some matching lotion to your body, which made you feel a sense of pride of yourself as you made small steps to take care of yourself again, thanking the air of Italy as self motivation and threw on the robe that you swear was the softest one in the world.
A sudden sound coming from the house made you jump, a hand coming over your chest to try and calm your racing heart as your mind tried to think of all of the possibilities of who could be there, or maybe it was coming outside? Or honestly at this point you thought it could be your imagination as the memories that have been flashing into your mind have been so vivid it felt like it was actually happening. Your feet softly padded on the wood flooring, making your way to what you thought was the site of the sound, feeling bile rise in your throat at the sight before you.
It was Harry there, with one of the most beautiful women you had ever seen in your life, laughing together.
You weren’t sure if they saw you, both of their hair wet as towels wrapped around them and it seemed like they had just got back from the beach, making you think that you must have just missed each other as you swapped positions. You slowly walk backwards, thinking of running out the back towards the beach and calling a car, leaving all of your clothes there.
You could see slightly into the master bedroom, seeing their suitcases sprawled and things laid on the couch as they chatted together, knowing they must have arrived when you were down at the beach, your presence unknown as all of your things sat seemingly hidden in the guest room which you were now desperately trying to go and hide in, but after it being too log since you been here, you accidentally ran into the wall, a photo that was hanging there crashing to the floor, glass shattering.
Two heads quickly snapped their way towards you, both pairs of eyes meeting yours as gasps left both of their lips, Harry’s face going pale as he saw you. You opened your mouth to speak, but with this being your first time seeing your partner since the breakup, no words were able to come out.
Spinning on your heel your ran back into the guest bedroom, pulling the suitcase out of the closet and messily shoving all of your clothes into it, tears stinging your eyes and unable to hold them in as they silently spilling on you cheeks, more coming as you heard the familiar steps coming your way, feeling the presence behind you and hearing the door shut softly behind you.
“Y/N?”

Recap:
“Pregnancy isn’t sexy.”
He laughs. Like genuine, whole hearted laughter. “What are you talking about?” “What are you talking about?” You fire back.
“The fact that you’re pregnant with my baby is the hottest shit ever. I did that shit. We did that shit. It’s hot.”
“We can agree to disagree, then.”
So much for trying to keep things simple, Grayson thinks to himself.
“Let me prove it.”
***
The past few minutes felt like a total blur. One second, you and Grayson were talking – okay, flirting – and the next, you were underneath him on the couch, his hands up your sweatshirt. He tasted just like you remember, minty and fresh, except this time there was no tequila or vodka, it was pure desire.
You had thought about kissing him ever since the last time and it feels like your memory had failed you. His lips were soft and sensual against your own, his tongue caressing yours like he couldn’t get enough. You both were breathing heavily, not wanting to break apart from each other for even a second.
However, when his fingers finally brushed against your nipple, pinching it lightly, you gasped, forcing your lips away from his. Your eyes stayed closed as he continued to roll it between his fingertips, the sensation sending shock waves straight to your pussy.
“Like that, mama?” He whispered in your ear, his hot breath heating you up even more.
You let out a pathetic whine, nodding your head while biting your lip. Your brain was so fogged with pleasure, the thought of trying to speak seemed impossible.
He chuckled, somewhat bringing your brain back to reality and causing you to open your eyes. He looked like a Greek god above you, his hair going every which way, his pupils dilated, and a smirk plastered across his swollen lips. This was so much better than the first time already, and he hadn’t even gotten your naked.
“You’re sure you want it?” His face went serious for a moment and you could tell he wanted a genuine answer, not just some lust filled moan. Your heart fluttered knowing that even in this position he is still so caring and wanted to make sure you were comfortable.
“Want it bad,” you told him, dragging your hands up the front of his clothed torso, heat radiating off him like a furnace.
Grayson growled, picking you up quickly and wrapping your legs around his waist. You squealed, your arms flying around his neck to steady yourself. He walked you to the laundry room, doing his best not to walk you into the wall or anything while he kissed your neck. If you were being honest, you wouldn’t even notice if he did walk into something because it felt like you and Grayson were the only things to exist right now.
He laid you down on the bed gently, standing back to watch you catch your breath. His mind was overflowing with anything you and he needed to take a second to ground himself. He didn’t think he’d ever be able to be in this position with you again.
You see, after your night during New Year’s Eve, he was over the moon. His friends had tried to convince him that maybe he needed to chill with trying to find a wife at 20, so that’s what he did.
He was just living his life, tried casually seeing girls, but none of them seemed to click with him. But when he met you at Jessie’s, he felt something different. He wasn’t totally infatuated like he’d been in the past with his ‘soulmates,’ but he more felt excited butterflies while also a serene calmness radiating off of you. You made everyone in the room smile, including him. So, he turned the charm on and a week later he had his first one night stand.
Except, you were stuck in his head after that. When Ethan made him drive them home before you had gotten up, he found he was disappointed he didn’t get to say bye to you. He was hoping to even maybe get your number. But, his friends reminded him that that’s not what one night stands are, so he went back to LA and kept living his life.
That feeling had never left him, though. The butterflies would spark up every time he saw an Instagram post from Jessie that had you in it, or when he smelled anything coconutty because of the way your hair smelled that night, or even when he’d have lemonade because of the way he could remember your mouth tasting, and limes are similar enough to lemons, right?
So, the fact that you were in his bed, pregnant with his baby and ready to get fucked by him again made his stomach twist and his heart pound in his ears. He could feel the blood rushing to his dick, but he also felt those butterflies, the unique feeling you brought to him every time he heard your heavy breathing, saw your wide eyes, and tasted your sweaty skin.
“Gray?” You breathed out, watching him stand there, his eyes just raking over your completely clothed body. You’d assumed you’d be almost naked by now and your sweatshirt and leggings were pretty much suffocating you with how hot you were for him.
His eyes instantly met yours when he heard his name from your mouth, and his signature smirk forming on his lips once again. “Yeah, mama?”
“Touch me.”
Grayson’s eyes closed for a moment to collect himself before he opened them again with a new determination gleaming in them. He crawled on top of you, straddling your hips while pushing your sweatshirt slowly up your body. His fingers are brushing over the skin of your sides, leaving goosebumps in their wake. He stopped right before exposing your breasts, watching you squirm. He wanted to take his time with you tonight. Appreciate you this time, memorize every part of your body so that he doesn’t have to forget it ever again.
You, however, were lacking the patience he possessed at the moment and decided to take it into your own hands. You grabbed your sweatshirt, lifting your body the best you could, and took it off in one movement.
This made Grayson laugh, but his eyes never left your tits. One of your elbows went back against the bed to hold your body up while the other grabbed one of his large ones, bringing it directly against your chest. He found himself unable to resist as he started to massage the warm flesh against his palm, his other hand going to match his movements on your other tit.
You sighed out in relief, arching your back into his touch. You’d waited so long for this, and you’re grateful to finally be getting some type of relief.
Similar to Grayson, your mind has been clouded with him since New Year’s Eve. Unlike him, however, you had done the whole no-strings-attached situation your first two years of college. When you had to get more serious about school junior year, along with getting leadership opportunities in your organizations, your sex life went straight to the back burner. Plus, you had Jessie. Jessie had come into your life sophomore year, originally as one of your many sexual endeavors. After seeing him a few times, though, you decided you’d rather be friends with him than just have sex with him. You and him got along really well, and you had a lot of mutual friends already.
Jessie was the last person you’d slept with before Grayson. You never really found yourself missing Jessie in that way, so it was easier to put yourself into the rest of your life. You never felt distracted by him, and almost forgot you guys used to sleep together. But, you still had needs like any human being, so it was kind of frustrating to not have anyone during that year and a half. That’s why when you met Grayson, you almost felt revived.
He was funny and nice and hot as fuck and he was attracted to you. He’d made you feel a way no other guy had before. He was respectful and genuinely interested in his passions and that made you feel inspired. You couldn’t quite place it, it was just the fact that he was Grayson that made you attracted to him.
When he had been gone when you woke up on New Year’s, you were disappointed, but not shocked. He was still a guy. He had his needs met and that’s what he wanted.
However, getting to know him once you found out you were pregnant had made you realize that that wasn’t totally the case. Miscommunication could practically be your middle name at this point, and although you were disappointed you’d be having a friend baby because you both had decided not to pursue the other, you were grateful he was in your life at all.
But now knowing that he still wanted you all these months later (and a couple pounds because of strawberry, too), has excited you in a way you have never felt before. There was a fire in you that only he could put out, and he was not moving fast enough for you.
“Gray come on, please,” you whined, lifting your hips up to meet his.
“Fuck, pretty girl. Needy for me?” He bit his lip, swiping his thumbs over your nipples repeatedly, watching them continue to get harder with each touch.
You nodded, lifting your hips again. His hands grabbed your hips, helping you move back on the bed so that he was knelt between your legs. His fingers dug into the top of your leggings, pulling them down and throwing them with your sweatshirt.
When he looked back down at you, he was met with your pink thong barely covering you. He could see the wet spot on them over your slit, making his cock twitch under his sweats.
“Baby,” he breathed out, laying down while his palms brushed over the smooth skin of your inner thighs, forcing them open wider so he could be comfortable. “Shoulda told me how bad you needed me, pretty girl.” “I did!” You groaned, squirming around once you felt his breath on your center.
He chuckled, enjoying the way he was torturing you. “You’re right, you did. But I’ll make it worth it, don’t worry.”
Before you could say anything back, he was dragging his tongue up your covered slit, tasting what he can through the fabric. You both moaned quietly, excited to finally be getting what you’ve craved for so long.
One of Grayson’s hands moved closer to your center, his thumb rubbing over the wet spot, pulling the fabric away and to the side so that he can finally see what he had been trying to remember for over three months now.
“Pretty girl, this fucking pussy. Been dreaming about it.” His words made your cheeks flush, and as you were about to remind him to get to it, he dove in.
His tongue was exploring you, reaching from your hole all the way to your clit, making sure you were wet enough between what you’re giving him and his spit. Once he was satisfied, he put his focus on your clit.
The feeling of finally having his mouth on you after so many months was totally overwhelming. Your pussy fluttered every time he licked you just right, causing one of your hands to enter his hair at the back of his head. Your eyes squeezed shut from how good it felt, your brain unable to comprehend what was happening. You had managed to pull Grayson Dolan not once, but twice. You couldn’t even care about any consequences you’ll deal with later, his tongue being the only thing you cared about.
You pulled it lightly at his hair and he groaned against you, the vibrations shooting up your spine and making your back arch. Your breathing quickened when you felt his other hand come closer to his mouth, his middle finger rubbing up and down your slit to collect some wetness before he pushed it into you. He moved so slowly, inching his way into the pussy he’s wanted to be back in for so long, and it drove you both crazy. Your walls were almost suffocating his finger as he explored you, figuring out what would make you squirm.
His sensual movements were causing your orgasm to bubble up from deep within you. His finger was soon joined by another and he began to stretch you out, his attention on your clit never faltering. He was devouring you like he hadn’t had water for weeks and you’re the first drop he could find. He was totally enamored with your reactions to his touch. He never wanted it to end, your moans and whines being music to his ears, your hips squirming against his face, spreading your wetness across his chin. He started grinding his hips against the bed for any kind of relief, wanting to taste your cum on his tongue.
Luckily for him, you were really close. Your hand that wasn’t in his hair was twisting the sheets, the pleasure you were feeling totally consuming every part of your being. Before you knew what was happening, your legs were clamping around his head while you came, groaning his name out while you tugged on his hair.
Grayson worked you through the whole thing, his fingers and tongue never stopping. Your body relaxed and that’s when he slowed down, slowly sliding his fingers out of you. He licked your opening, cleaning up as much as he could, relishing in the way you were twitching against him. He left one last kiss to your sensitive clit before pulling away and climbing up onto his knees between your legs.
When he looked down at you, spread out on his bed, cheeks flushed and eyes glazed over, he literally moaned at the site.
“Fuck, pretty girl.”
You didn’t even bother to respond with words, merely whining and nudging him with your knees.
Grayson stood up, pulling his shirt over his head, dragging his pants and underwear down after.
“You still want it, mama?” He asked while he crawled back on the bed, returning to his spot between your legs.
You look down at the dick you hadn’t seen since January and almost moaned at the site. It was somehow more enticing than you remember, and you needed him in you now.
“Yes, really bad. Please fuck me, Gray,” you whined, your hands reaching out for him. He obliged, falling over you, his arms stopping him so that he didn’t crush you.
You could see the glimmer of your wetness still on his chin, prompting you to reach up and swipe your thumb across his skin to collect it all. Your thumb slowly moved to his bottom lip, pushing on it a bit. He opened his mouth, allowing your thumb to enter, keeping his eyes on yours the whole time. He sucked every last drop off your finger, his tongue leaving no part of your thumb untouched. When you pulled it out, his teeth lightly brushing against your skin, and you feel like you could melt at the feeling, never mind the sight.
“You’re gonna be the fucking death of me, mama,” he groaned, leaning his head back and closing his eyes for a moment.
You giggled, pulling his face to yours by gripping his cheeks, kissing him once slowly and trying to portray how you felt through your lips. When you pulled away, your teeth caught on his lower lip while you looked up at him. Grayson felt like he could cum at the sight of you, looking fucked out and totally lost in the way he was making you feel.
This was what prompted him to bring one hand down to his dick, pumping himself a couple times before lining up with your slit.
“Ready, pretty girl?”
You whined, nodding and biting your own lip, wiggling your hips while you waited for him to do what you’ve been dreaming of for months. Soon, he was fulfilling your wishes while he pushed into you slowly, relishing in the way your walls were sucking him in. Once he was all the way in, he stilled so that you had time to adjust. Your hands moved to his shoulders, your nails digging into the skin there from how overwhelmed you were.
“Fuck me, Gray,” you whispered, looking him straight in the eyes while you said it.
Grayson didn’t need anything else to prompt him as he started to move in and out of you, his pace slowly and steadily increasing until you felt the bed rocking underneath you. He watched your face while your eyes fell shut, your brain consumed with the pleasure he was giving you. He was brushing the spot inside you that made you shake, and you knew you wouldn’t last much longer.
“Feeling good, baby?” He breathed against your ear, his hips grinding into you in a way that allowed for your clit to rub against him.
You moaned in response, your head pushing back into the pillow and your back arching into him so as much of your skin was touching his as possibly. Your nails dragged down his back, your toes beginning to curl.
“Cum around my cock, pretty girl. Need to feel it.” His voice is uneven, his breathing increasing as his thrusts get sloppy. He was just as close as you, floating on cloud nine.
His words prompted you to give into the immeasurable pleasure he was giving you, your ears ringing as you came hard around him. You whimpered into his ear, gripping his lower back as your squirmed underneath him. Once you came back down, you could see the pleasure written across his face, making you smirk.
You squeezed your walls around him, causing him to groan as he pushed his face into your neck to try and muffle the noises as much as possible for the sake of his family. You just felt so good, and he wasn’t sure he’d be able to keep it in.
Soon he was stalling inside you, gripping your hip to keep you where you were so that you couldn’t move away from him, his cum shooting into you. His breathing was quick as he was finally spent, his body relaxing on top of yours.
Once you had both calmed down a bit, you moved a hand into his hair, stroking it softly. “You’re gonna have to get a plan b tomorrow,” you giggled. You felt his laugh vibrate through your chest as he stroked your sides.
“And you told me my humor was shit.”
“I said you were cheesy!” You laughed, defending yourself.
Instead of responding, Grayson get up from on top of you, pulling out of you. The lack of body heat made you shiver, but you were heating up again when he kneelt between your legs to watch his cum slowly drip out of you. “God, pretty girl, this is the hottest shit,” he groaned, spreading your lips with his thumbs to enhance his view. You whined, covering your face and feeling more exposed than ever. He chuckled, crawling back up to straddle your midsection while removing your hands from your face by gripping your wrists. “Gonna be shy on me now? After what we just did?”
“I dunno, no one’s really looked at me like that after sex.”
“Like what?”
“Like they still thought I was hot after they got what they wanted.”
He frowned, moving a hand to your cheek, stroking the soft skin with his thumb. It made him sad to think about how you had been treated in the past by so many people. He didn’t think you deserved any of it because he genuinely thought you were the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen.
“I – this wasn’t…Y/N. This wasn’t just a ‘get our rocks off’ thing. I care about you. And I’ve thought you were hot this whole time. So, let’s get you cleaned up and in bed, because we’re going to the city tomorrow and strawberry has to be rested up for our fun day. Okay?”
A small smile managed to make its way on your face, nodding as he moved off the bed, holding his hand out to you. You took it and he helped you stand. You could feel his cum dripping down your thighs, making your blush. You stood there while he moved around, pulling his sweats up his legs before he handed his shirt to you.
“You okay?” He asked as you stood there staring at him. His voice brought you out of your thoughts, prompting you to grab his shirt and slip it over your head.
“Uh, yeah. Just can feel your cum coming out,” you mumbled.
He chuckled, walking over to you and resting his hands on your hips. “Can’t believe you don’t see how fucking hot you are.” He left a quick kiss on your lips before walking you to the door.
“Hey, wait. I don’t have any pants on.” You went to turn but he grabbed your wrist to keep you standing where you were.
“Please don’t put any on.”
You laughed, raising your brow at him. “What if we pass Ethan or your mom in the hallway?”
“We won’t, they’re both out by now. Come on.” He tugged on you, bringing you out of the room before you could protest.
You made it to the bathroom unseen, Grayson locking the door behind you guys before he turned back to you.
“What’re you looking at?” He smirked, seeing you standing there and watching him unmoving.
Your cheeks warmed. “Oh, nothing really. You just, you have…I scratched you.”
He smirked, walking to you and loosely holding you against him by your hips. his mouth found the skin below your ear. “You like seeing me marked up by you?”
You gasped, not expecting him to come onto you again, but you found yourself nodding before you could control it. It was really hot, actually. Knowing that the next time he showered he’d be reminded of you from the burning on his back.
“Now you understand how fucking hot it is you’re pregnant with my baby.” He left one hot, open mouthed kiss on your neck before completely pulling away and going to get his toothbrush. To say you were flustered would be a complete understatement. You didn’t understand how he was able to affect you so intensely, but he did and now you found yourself unable to look away from his back as he began brushing.
He noticed through the mirror and chuckled, leaning over to spit before speaking to you.
“Gonna clean my cum up from your pussy or do you just wanna watch me brush my teeth?”
“Oh my god, the douche is back, it was fun while it lasted I guess,” you jokingly groaned, moving to sit on the toilet. You couldn’t prevent the smile spreading on your face, though. For some reason, you wouldn’t want to be anywhere else right now.
***
You woke up the next morning to a hand on your face gently stroking you. You took a big breath in, turning your head to face where the hand was coming from. “Gray?” You mumbled.
“No, better,” you heard a familiar voice. Suddenly your eyes were flying open as you looked up at Jessie sitting on the edge of the bed, his body connected to the hand on your face. “Hey Y/N.” He’s got a smirk on his face as he watched the shock settle into your features.
“Jess? What? What’s –“ you looked around, seeing the bed empty of Grayson. A tiny part of you is disappointed, but you don’t let it show. You looked back at him, sitting up as a smile graced your features. “Jessie.”
“Ethan and Grayson invited me to your city day. Missed seeing you every day.”
“Yay! Okay, I gotta get ready and stuff,” you exclaimed, moving a bit closer to the edge, immediately remembering you had Grayson’s shirt on. Only Grayson’s shirt.
Jessie sat there expectantly because he had seen you in your pajamas multiple times, so when you paused he raised his brow. “You gonna puke or something?”
“Uh, you know what, yeah. I really don’t feel well. Can I have a couple minutes to get myself together?” You batted your eyelashes at him, knowing he would do whatever you wanted.
“Of course, I’ll be in the kitchen with the guys.” He patted your thigh covered by the blankets before standing and leaving the room.
You let out a sigh of relief, grateful that worked. See, after you got pregnant, Jessie has been super protective over you and has been weird about your relationship with Grayson. He loved the kid, don’t get it wrong, but he didn’t love the fact that it took a baby for Grayson to realize how amazing you are to talk to and be around. It almost felt like Jessie was acting like your older brother or something. Almost. A small part of you felt like it was jealously, but you didn’t even want to entertain that idea in case you were totally wrong.
Plus, what you had said wasn’t even a lie. You really didn’t feel well. However, you’ve learned to go about your day despite it, so you got up and got dressed in weather appropriate clothes that you wouldn’t be uncomfortable walking around the city in.
You go out to the kitchen, smiling when you saw all three boys chatting. Grayson stood over the stove while Ethan and Jessie leaned against the counter nearby.
“There she is. Thought we’d never get this show on the road,” Ethan joked, watching you walk towards them. They all were dressed kind of nice, nothing fancy but certainly no sweats in sight.
“Shut up, I’m growing a baby. Makes me a bit tired.” You walked to get water, hoping that would satisfy strawberry so your stomach would calm down.
“Oh yeah that’s for sure what’s made you tired,” Ethan remarked sarcastically, his smile never leaving his face. Your cheeks burned as Jessie gave him a questioning look.
Before the conversation could go any further, Grayson interrupted. “Pancakes?” He was looking directly at you, even though the question was for everyone.
It felt weird to be around him right now, knowing he literally fucked you last night and left. You weren’t sure how to feel about it, but you didn’t want to ruin the day for everyone.
You shook your head no, doing your best to keep your face neutral so as not to show the disgust you felt at the thought of eating pancakes. Strawberry had long ruined them for you, throwing them up one too many times.
“Your baby fucking hates pancakes, dude. Y/N’s thrown them up like ten times. I’ll have some, though,” Jessie jumped in, walking over to the stove. Grayson looked at you, as if he was waiting to hear it from you instead of Jessie.
You shrugged. “Guess strawberry is not a breakfast person. It’s okay, though, I’ve been throwing up less in general so I hope one day pancakes will be back in my life. They used to be my favorite.” He nodded, not really saying much as he served Jessie and Ethan some. He knew they were your favorite, you’d told him that a couple months ago. That’s why he made them in the first place today.
He’d gotten up early in the hopes to give you breakfast in bed before you day with everyone, but Jessie had gotten there early and ruined that. And Jessie seemed to know not only more about your pregnancy, but about your baby. He could feel the jealously bubbling up inside him, but he tried to keep it at bay. He was one of your best friends and sees you every day at school. It made sense he knew that stuff about you.
While Ethan and Jessie were busy eating, Grayson walked over to you. “Hey, you feel okay?” His eyebrows were drawn together in concern. He could tell something was off.
“Uh, yeah. Fine. Just nauseous.”
“Are you gonna…”
“No, I’m fine. Not as fragile as you think,” you mumbled, taking a sip of your water. If he only wanted to take care of you when it benefited him, you were fine with that. You just didn’t want him to act like he wanted anything more than that just because there were other people there.
He sighed, his eyes softening. “Y/N, no, you know that’s not what I meant. Just want to make sure you’re okay.”
“I’m fine.” You gave him a tight smile before walking to the table to sit next to Jessie, leaving Grayson to clean up the breakfast he made for you before he sat down himself to eat.
Once everyone but you had eaten, you all got ready to head to the train station. You still had no idea what you guys were doing today because Grayson said he had wanted to keep it a surprise for you. You and Jessie decided to go outside to wait by the car for Ethan and Grayson. He had his arm around your shoulder as you walked out the door.
“Excited for today?” He asked.
You nodded. “Yeah, it’s gonna be nice to do something normal with them. And something fun in general, feels like all I do are stressful things between the baby and our last semester. I know when we go back I’m gonna be working literally until graduation.”
“Yeah, but at least we’ll do it together. And then we get to graduate together to celebrate.” He squeezed your shoulder and you leaned into him. You were genuinely not sure what you’d do without him, he kept you sane half the time.
Ethan and Grayson walked outside to meet you guys, and Grayson paused. He watched you and Jessie talking, and noticed how relaxed you were. He wondered if you ever looked that way when you were talking to him.
Ethan continued to walk to the car, leaving Grayson on the porch. It was only when Ethan called for him to unlock the car that Grayson stopped staring and walked over as well.
“Shotgun!” Ethan called, running to the passenger side of the car.
“No dude, Y/N gets shotgun,” Grayson responded casually, opening the driver’s side door.
“Gray, it’s okay, I don’t have to-“
“It’ll help make you feel better, right? Or at least not make you feel any more sick.” He raised his brow, looking at you.
“Yeah,” you nodded, feeling bad. You felt like you were totally interrupting their usual flow of things.
“Hey, Y/N, come sit. It’s okay, Jess and I’ll cuddle in the back,” Ethan joked, keeping the door open for you as you walked over, giving him a soft smile.
“Thank you, I appreciate it.”
“Don’t worry about it, you’re the one growing a baby. You get to make the calls.” Ethan closed your door once you were in your seat before climbing in the back with Jessie.
Grayson handed you his phone and you gave him a questioning look. “You’re on aux,” He clarified. You could feel the butterflies in your stomach from the smile he gave you, knowing how into music he is and how difficult he finds it to give up the aux power. You made sure to pick songs you knew everyone would love, lightening the slightly weird mood that had settled over you guys that morning. Maybe today wouldn’t be as awkward as you anticipated.

Tumblr media
hello hello, cutie 3.14s ! ⭐  i’m juju, and this is the loml: taewon, aka sunshine boy who spends way too much of his time taking pictures and talking to plants at the museum.  under the cut you’ll find more info about him.  as always, if you’d like to plot, just smash that like and i’ll come running !  you can also send an im or reach me through discord if that’s easier.
full  biography    •    statistics    •    wanted  connections
background. (  death & violence tw  )
taewon was adopted by an older couple (they were in their early 50s) when he was only 3 months old, and was raised in seattle, washington. 
they were the kind of parents who gave him the world. provided unconditional love and support, as well as the freedom to let him grow.
they later discovered that he had a gift... and that was playing the piano !!!  he was a child prodigy; by the time he was 8 he mastered hundreds of pieces and performed in front of thousands of people at concert halls.
his passion and drive for music carried over the years, and his reputation allowed him to attend prestigious music schools for both high school and college. 
things were going pretty good and taewon was actually starting to believe that he could be something but... it all changed his 2nd year of university :/ 
he was attending ur average college party and was having a casual convo with a girl.... girl’s boyfriend who was drunk comes and thinks that taewon (prob got intimidated bc taewon is a pretty cute guy u know?) is trying to steal her away and things got messy.
long story short taewon tried to reason with him but that didn’t work. bf only got more angry and beat taewon, then pushing him off of the balcony.
things got a lil hazy after but taewon could clearly remember one thing: losing feeling in his hands. every single finger fractured, scratched up.
he had to say bye bye to his music career because even when he fully recovered.... he never played the piano the same. so he quit.
he was lost and desperate for a sign. tried a million things to find his new niche the next few years, working different jobs until something clicked.
worked at a camera shop for a brief period of time and that’s when his interest in photography sparked !!! :D  
this was also around the time where his [adoptive] father’s dementia was getting worse so it gave him the idea to save up for a nice camera, take pictures of things, put it in albums and show them to him to help his memory. every week, he would make new albums for him to look at, and tell the stories behind them.
unfortunately while it did help, his dad passed. it broke him. a couple of months later, he lost his mom too. everything in his world came crumbling.
desperate for a new beginning taewon was like: that’s it this place is c*rsed i’m selling everything i have and getting tf out of here !!! so that’s what he did. he spent the next few months travelling, searching for that fresh start and finally came across a lil island called eastbell.
instantly fell in love w the place and now calls it his home :) got a job at the museum as the assistant because he spends 80% of his days there anyway, and does some photography work from time to time too.
but lowkey. a part of him is just waiting for something to happen and then he’s going to have to leave again :(
tiny fun facts.
has the literal softest most gentle voice you will ever hear. you know those voices that you can listen to for hours because they sound so nice ?  like you just want taewon to read you a bedtime story before bed and tuck u in. 
that being said there’s never not a time where he’s asked to speak louder and that he hates it :) he doesn’t want to yell either because he’s afraid it might start conflict and he hates conflict so. love that for him :)
he’s that one person that you can go to if you need ANY kind of support. it could be something small and stupid like folding all of your laundry and taewon will be like “ur doing amazing sweetie keep going !!! :D”
very dependable. you can seriously call him at any hour of the day and ask him to do something... and he’ll do it. you say jump he says how high LMAO.
has this kind of warm and nurturing aura that makes him so approachable. he loves sparking conversations with strangers at random places and literally... is a hit with the elderly. 
in a way, he’s kind of an old soul. doesn’t really use social media a lot, thinks crossword puzzles are fun, and loves to write letters (he has a few pen-pals from all around!).
prefers peace and quiet over anything else, which is why he finds being alone very comfortable. it doesn’t bother him. a lot of the time he does things on his own anyway. very introverted and has recharge days !!!
lives for that domestic life and loves to cook, clean, knit, and garden.
if you ever find him talking to the plants at the museum.... please don’t mind him. or join him. he’ll appreciate it.
surprisingly gives the best life advice.
has developed insomnia since the loss of his parents and hasn’t had decent sleep in a while. he’ll only really sleep if he has company with him.
he’s a pisces sun so it’s kind of a given that he cries at least once a day... takes everything to heart and is a little too sensitive but THAT’S OKAY !!! he’s not the type to physically show he’s upset he’ll excuse himself and cry in the corner somewhere then pretend it never happened.
has a white hamster named marshmallow who he keeps in his shirt’s front pocket sometimes when he goes to the museum.

ANOTHER TAG ASHJHJASD
extra long tag game (aka a tmi that no one particularly cares for)
tagged by @txthearteu​
tagging @markhyucknorenminchenji​ @qtsoobin​ @beomberry​ @txtdiaries​ and other people who wanna do it idk
Tumblr media
ONE
tell me the first song that made you stan your current fave group and why did your faves attract you so much?
of course, none other than king943 hSJADJSAJHAS. He’s a little secret I’ll let you all in on: the first person I actually noticed in TXT was,,,,,,, Kang Taehyun hSDHJAHJSDAHSA but he wasn’t my bias. I just thought he was cute (also amused me bc my BTS bias was Taehyung and I found a guy named Taehyun cute), but I didn’t stan them then. I started stanning when I saw ONE DREAM.TXT where they talked to BTS and found them really cute and endearing. Looking into them, they were wild, and chaotic and so fun and also i got rEAAAALLY attached to Soobin. So here I am. There u go, my stanning story.
Tumblr media
TWO
rule: answer the ten questions and write your own!
what’s your unrealistic goal for life?
becoming a famous actress or singer hJSHADJSA
if you had known that we would be in a global pandemic, what’s one thing that you would’ve done before things shut down (if they have for you)?
Went to a theme park. I miss going to theme parks 🥺
what’s an unconventional thing that you carry around with you when you go out?
hmmm most of the time i just go out with just my phone and money unless I need to bring a bag due to safety concerns/more items needed. So I’d say nothing unconventional.
favourite type of plushies and why?
God do I seem boring hsahsajjsa but i wasn’t too big on plushies. I had a gigantic teddy bear named Justin when I was a kid (it’s a bear with shades that my brother gave me) and I used to buy plushies whenever I’m in disneyland, it’s all in my sister’s reading lounge. The only plushie in my room now is a Mollang doll wearing like a blue shirt/dress, it’s my favorite rn It’s squishyyyy
favourite song right now?
right now, it’s Work It by Sabrina Carpenter.
something that you’ve always wanted to learn?
Dancing (i literally suck. i have no idea how. no joke), Vocal Lessons (had some lessons briefly for like a year but i stopped and want to take some again), music production, acting, hosting
tell a funny story about yourself (or just something that you’ve witnessed)
ok okok so one time in our class groupchat we were talking about class elections for officers. There were muse votes and some people were saying they want me to be the muse but i didnt want to bc i was busy with work. Then they started saying that they want me to be the muse and this guy that i rejected be the escort. while this is happening, i was simping hard for soobin in another chat. anyways, i got everything mixed up and accidentally sent the soobin simp stuff to the class chat and everyone thought i was simping for the classmate i rejected i was so asHAMED.
headphones or speakers? why?
speakers! idk i just like blastic the music loud.
craving any food right now? what are you craving?
anything with cheese
which music streaming platform do you prefer? why?
spotify since its free for me askjjksad someone pays for my subscription lmaooo
😌✌️
Tumblr media
questions from cj to me:
android or apple? why?
APPLE because im loyal 😌 and i guess im just used to it so its easier to use for me + all my gadgets at home are mac
words of affirmation or physical affection? why?
I think there should be a good balance of both. The words will have the ability to give you this sense of comfort and satisfaction and you know just overall a peace of mind when you hear the right words??? and physical affection bc sometimes it’s just better to get a hug or a kiss isntead of talking yk? actions speak louder than words sometimes
bean bag or rocking chair? why?
Honestly, this would depend. If I’m reading a book and feeling very vintage with a hot cup of coffee, definitely a rocking chair. If I’m watching TV and basically just chilling I’d go for Bean Bag. I like maintaining the atmosphere.
do you view a half-filled glass as half-full or half-empty or an in-between? why? (go as deep as you can)
I view it as in-between, because there’s always room for improvement. There’s always things to change, and consider, and make better. There’s no such thing as perfect.
If someone were to grant your wish right now, what would it be and why?
Please stop corona right now and let everyone go back to their daily lives and please let me attend a TXT concert bls im begging on my kNEES
if someone were to give you anything you want right now, what would it be and why? (something that can be held)
Give me Soobin I just want to give him a hug. this is valid i can hold him
favorite season and why
Winter! Even if I’ve never experienced snow or winter before, the whole idea of snow is just really fun and endearing to me. One of my bucketlists is to see snow in real life. I think it has to do with the fact that I’ve always been this person to prefer the cold over heat.
what made you enter tumblr?
I’ve always been here! Just not in kpop tumblr. I’ve since deleted my old accounts and shame  but i came back to write. It’s always been so stress-relieving to me, to write without any expectations on my back because I’m thinking about grades or a competition. Also Soobin simping is a daily thing and I gotta release it somewhere man
are you happy with where you are in life right now? why or why not?
Yes. I may not be the richest or the prettiest, or smartest or whatever, but I have a good family that loves me. I have good friends that support me and I have TXT and BTS to help me cope when things get overwhelming. I have a job that gives me a little bit of income (it’s not too common for college students here to get jobs like in the US, most of them just focus on acads) and all the means to continue my education amidst the pandemic. So really, I’m grateful for where I am now.
to see the boys in real life but for it to happen only once in your lifetime, or to meet the boys via online fan meeting as many times as you can in your lifetime? why?
Why do you have to do me dirty cj,,,,, prolly online. I may not get to hug them or anything but I get to talk to them still. As may times as I want to. And as a girl whose sanity literally just depends on Soobin giggles rn it’ll be very therapeutic to me to see them and talk to them as much as I could, even just through a screen.
QUESTIONS FROM ME TO YOU:
Cinema or Netflix? Why?
Fire or Rain? Why?
What’s the worst experience you’ve had as a KPOP stan?
How do you handle stress?
Favorite Disney Princess and why?
Which fictional character do you say you relate the most to?
How did you get into KPOP?
What kind of merch you got 👀
Would you date a KPOP idol? What would you do if you do date one? (doesnt have to be your bias, just wanna see what y’all would do)
Would you rather be with someone you love but doesn’t love you back or be with someone that loves yu but you don’t love them back? (Or, as the Filipinos would say, Mahal ko o Mahal Ako)

hey y’all i’m cosmo !! this is elton, he’s a professional baseball player with a lot of issues but he’s baby™ and just wants to be loved. like this and i’ll hit you up to plot ! also my discord is @ kingwavy#6636 if it’s easier to plot there !
Tumblr media
new york’s very own elton bishop was spotted on broadway street in jadon hi dr. martens . your resemblance to aron piper is unreal . according to tmz , you just had your twenty second birthday bash . while living in nyc ,  you’ve been labeled as zany, but also vehement . i guess being an aquarius explains that . 3 things that would paint a better picture of you would be black turtle necks & sunglasses at night, scuffed dr. martens, cigarette smoke against neon lights.  . ( sex with me has never lasted more than three minutes )  &  ( male & he/him )  +  ( cosmo, 24 , they/them , est . )
inspiration.
carl gallagher. shameless.
mike wheeler. stranger things.
eric forman. that 70′s show.
aaron judge. new york yankees.
stats.
full name. elton “john” bishop.
birth-place. bronx, new york.
age. twenty-two.
dob. 1/21/1996.
zodiac. aquarius.
orientation. pansexual.
spanish / english.
about.
      the son of an alabama native father and a new york mother, elton was born into immediate chaos. his mother refused to leave new york, the city life being made for her. she originally was born in mexico and moved to new york as a child with her family – - a large family that elton grew up with. his father, however, was a southern man through and through, and while up in new york for business, happened to create elton before departing back to alabama.
       growing up with a single mother, elton immediately began violently acting out once he started elementary school. no one was sure if it was because of the lack of parental guidance in his life, because the young boy needed some attention, ( tw violence ) or if he was just suffering from undiagnosed mental issues. in elementary school, he was stabbing peers with pencils, throwing chairs, playing pranks on teachers, cutting off girls’ ponytails, and a whole list of other things. ( end tw violence ) there were multiple occasions in which elton was almost expelled from school, but pity was more powerful. eventually, however, elton began to appreciate everything his mother did for him to excel in life and he went on to clean up his act to try and lessen his mom’s burden.
      his father would often come up to visit when he was young, but soon began to realize that elton was nothing like the son he wanted. elton was very animated, loved make-up, dressing up, watching soap operas with his mom, and all-around was not very physically active or into any sports. his father pushed sports on him, though, and elton started to play baseball once he entered middle school. this was where he made most of his friends, but where he began to lose himself. elton no longer felt comfortable wearing make-up or gossiping with his mom about cute boys, so he dove head first into sports and excelled at that too.
       he was never in the closet around his mother’s side of the family or anyone in his city at home - new york was more accepting of that - , but when he flew down to alabama to visit his dad ( which happened often once he was in his teen years ) , elton threw on a football t-shirt or a basketball hat and became the perfect son to an athletic father. it all changed one night when elton was at his dad’s when he was about sixteen years old. elton was at a party, some party with kids he didn’t know in a town he wasn’t extremely familiar with, when he was hooking up with a boy in one of the spare bedrooms. he wasn’t sure what happened or how it happened, but his dad tracked his location and barged in on him in a compromising situation. ( tw verbal abuse ) he very calmly asked elton to get into the car so the male did just that. his dad told him he was worthless, he was useless, he was a mistake – everything under the stars a son couldn’t bear to hear – and was immediately sent back to new york on a red eye. ( end tw verbal abuse ).
      getting back to life in new york was busy, yet amazing. he forgot about his father’s existence because it was clear that his father had forgotten about him. he stopped paying child support so elton decided to get a job at a sports shop in order to help his mother out. he became more so withdrawn and angry after that, but still the same elton beneath everything. so when his father passed away while elton was twenty years old, he received a letter stating that he was now the owner of all of his father’s assets, including the money. elton went on to college where he was on a scholarship for baseball. he was scouted, played in a minor league for the yankees, and a year later was brought up to the MLB. he now plays right field and is the most popular yankee to exist since jeter or a-rod.
wanted connections.
his few close friends !!! ( 1 / ?? ) 
sometimes elton can be very strange and introverted. basically this person would have to be bubbly and help him really become more confident and happy with himself. kind of like a harold and maude relationship without the romance ( or with ) . 
some familial connections, his dad’s side, prob cousins or another child that his father had and elton didn’t know about bc he lived in ny.
apartment neighbors // 
roommate ?? “THEY WERE ROOMMATES”
a possible love interest in the form of two stumbling over their words, goofy, yet adorable messes around each other. could definitely blossom into something!
the person he slept with as a teenager that his dad caught them !!!
maybe someone that charms/annoys him on his way home every late night at ½ am from the bar. lol he’s probably super grumpy and this person has to be like.. super bubbly ?? walking their dog ?? idk. (
WINE NIGHTS and shit talking ANDFGDF . 
someone he gets high w often. (  1 /  ?? ) 
maybe some m/m bros that are actually into each other, but they’re too good of friends to say anything to each other, etc. 
head canons.
animated. very zany. loud and brash at times.
VERY TOUCHY and affectionate to those he loves
probably has fallen in love x300.
speaks fluent spanish
would definitely storm area 51.
loves make up... doesn’t wear it anymore tho.
low-key ashamed of himself
often tipsy or high or both
isn’t exactly mean, but he’s not rly the nicest person in the world and he prob wouldn’t go out of his way to do anything decent for someone he didn’t know.
deals drugs as a side hustle
definitely has hooked u p a lot ( i mean look at him ??? ) now he just wants to be loved tbh.
he LOVES love. he believes being in love is the meaning of life and is getting depressed about never having been loved.
he’s a video gamer, a basketball lover, and a chain smoker.
could be a lovable dumbass once he’s comfortable around someone.
does lack common sense at times.
does not have any social media platforms.
leaves clean laundry on his bedroom floor for a week
prob doesn’t drink enough water
constantly wears dr. martens
will always be found with taco bell bags in his car.

Hello!!! I saw in your bio that you are zero waste? If it's not too much of a bother, would you mind explaining how you do it?? It seems like such a daunting task (especially bc I live in a pretty rural area that doesnt have bulk stores close by) but I really want to start getting into it. Any tips for where/how to start? Thank you so much!! I hope you have a lovely day :)
Ahhhhh yes!!! I’m always happy to share my zero waste knowledge.Now, my bio says “zero waste,” but I’m nowhere near being one of those people who can manage to make their trash fit only in a mason jar, so I’m more technically “low waste.” 
I’m originally from a super small town that didn’t really have any bulk stores either. Luckily I’m living in a bigger city now so it’s a bit easier, but I definitely struggled when I was in my hometown. I got started about a year ago and it started with really small steps. I would honestly say that the bathroom is the easiest place to start. Finish whatever products you have first (shampoo in plastic bottles, tubes of toothpaste, body wash if you use it, etc.) so that they don’t go to waste, and then look into waste-free alternatives. You can order shampoo and conditioner bars online and there are tons of different kinds depending on your hair type. Buy bars of soap instead of body wash and try to look for ones from sustainable companies that don’t test on animals. There are tons of different places online (I usually stick with Lush, but I do buy some things on Amazon if I’m in a pinch. They do usually send stuff in plastic wrap and I try not to buy from them often, but they’re cheap and it’s still better than buying the plastic-wrapped alternatives, especially if you’re just starting out.) 
I also swear by Package Free Shop and Lauren Singer, aka Trash Is For Tossers. I ADORE her and she was the one who started my passion for zero waste. She has a lot of really great tips on her blog and Package Free is like the one-stop shop for all things zero waste. It’s a bit pricier, but I do try to look at the things on there as investments, because they will last you a long time and they pay themselves off quickly. As for toilet paper and paper towels, I buy them from Who Gives a Crap (love the name). I bought a box of TP and paper towels a year ago and I’ve only recently had to buy more. I buy sustainable laundry and dish detergent from Dropps. They’ve also lasted me more than a year. For period products I use a diva cup and Knix, as well as reusable cloth pads (not my fav, but if I’m in a pinch they’ll do)
I don’t compost (yet) because I live in an apartment, but I try not to buy more than I need and I always try to bring my own reusable produce and grocery bags when I’m going to the store. If your grocery store has a bulk section (even a small one) get what you can out of it. Try to look for what has the least amount of packaging and go with that. If a product has an option of being packaged in glass/paper, or being packaged in plastic, go with the glass/paper. It’s much easier to recycle or reuse, and plastic is really the core issue here.
I don’t buy a lot of fast food or takeout because I’m a broke college kid and it’s a huge source of waste, but sometimes if I’m starving and in need of a quick bite, I’ll cave and grab something.
Honestly, zero waste is a journey and not a destination. I’ll never ever be one of those people who miraculously fits all of their trash in a jar, and the average person won’t be either. And that’s okay. Doing a little bit and making small changes is enough, and it’s something to be celebrated. It’s admirable that you’re even interested in going zero waste!! That’s a HUGE first step! Don’t beat yourself up over the little things and just try to improve in the future. I still forget to bring my reusable bags to the store sometimes or forget to ask the waiter to skip the straw. We’re all learning and it’s going to take time. But we don’t need a few people doing zero waste perfectly. We need many people doing it imperfectly. All progress is good progress. I hope this helps! Message me if you have any more questions! Good luck!

Megan Reads Oathbringer (part 11)
All right, now that it’s been 4 months and I’ve read all the other things, I realized that it’s, like, 5 days until this book has been out for a year and I should probably get the fuck on with it, so. Here we are.
Part 11 encompasses pages 828-934 (previous parts)
me in July: I’m almost done! I can finish this!
me, now: sweet christ I have a smaller novel’s-worth still to get through lord let me live
Aw, damn, I left off on Interludes, but I DON’T CARE ABOUT VENLI, WHERE MY BOYS AT
oh SNAP I WANT THAT, the ability to speak and understand all languages???? GRABBY HANDS
ah yes the “the alethi enslaved us so we should rise up and kill them by enslaving ourselves to this other, more horrible godlike being” narrative. my favorite.
sigh
why we gotta EXTERMINATE people?
I’m tired. of extermination plotlines.
Maybe. Venli and her lil light spren will stop? the extermination!? I’m here for that!
“There was an art to doing laundry” HONESTLY THO, HAVE YOU MET COLLEGE-AGE BOYS WHO NEVER LEARNED HOW MUCH SOAP TO USE? AMEN.
oh.
I forgot about Mraize. 
like, literally, 100% forgot about his existence. sorry alyx.
eyy, we found Shalash!
HE WAS LOOKING FOR HER?? IT WAS A TRAP??
admiralakbar.gif
...Mraize has a babsk? I didn’t think he was Thaylen????
“A resistance is not what we caught you mounting.” UGH. PICK THE HAMMER, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.
Why do I feel like this is a “HE HAS CHOSEN THE BEAR. BRING FORTH THE BEAR” joke?
yeessssssss, VENLI!!! TAKIN RESPONSIBILITY!!!!!!!! I CARE NOW. I WANT HER TO BE BETTER, I WANT HER TO WORK THROUGH. GIIIRRLL!!!!
HOW LONG WILL YOU VACILLATE?
YESSSSS
gr oss? Tha nk s? for the melting flesh images??
yelch
PART FOOUUUUUURRR
that’s. so many POVs. What is this, a GRRM book?
also none of the POVs are Bridge Four and. WHEN WILL MY BOYS COME BACK FROM THE WAR.
wait, I could have sworn the Alethi had been fighting the Parshendi for ten years?? but Dalinar is talking to Gavilar EIGHT years ago?
Did I miss smthn?
Did I conflate the Shattered Plains with the Trojan War? I’m confused.
Lisa has done Math for me and found out that it was only 6 years????????? Why did I think it was ten??? I COULD HAVE SWORN IT WAS TEN????
“his job was to loom” heheheh
so... Dalinar is the nuclear deterrent and the nuclear threat all in one?
Dalinar, leaning into the mic: “The truth is... I am Iron Man.”
#Evideservedbetter2kForever
OH NO A BABY
TINY FIFTEEN YEAR OLD ADOLIN IS MAKING MY HEART SING
“I had this specially tailored” I LOVE HIM
OHHHHH
HE’S TRYING SO HARD TO IMPRESS HIS DAD I’M CRYING
“When censured, Adolin only tried harder.” I! LOVE! THIS! TINY! SUNLIGHT! BOY!
I wanna write fic where Adolin Kholin meets Luke Skywalker and the world literally EXPLODES IN SUNLIGHT AND SOFTNESS.
“Who could deny him?” CERTAINLY NOT ME, I WOULD DIE FOR ADOLIN KHOLIN TOO GOOD TOO SOFT FOR THIS WORLD
me, squinting: “which Herald is Ahu?”
my running method is to just suspect everyone of being a Herald. At some point, I’ll have to be right.
WHICH! HERALD! IS! AHU!
HE’S TALKING ABOUT THE UNMADE LIKE HE KNOWS THEM PERSONALLY, TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY LET THEM IN. WHICH!!! HERALD!!! IS!!! AHU!!!!
LISTEN, I JUST WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THE HERALDS. GIMME A BOOK ABOUT THE HERALDS, BRANDON!
GIMME THAT JUICY GOOD BACKSTORY, BRANDON!!!
me: why is there a map with the sea but Kholinar is on it???
two seconds later: OOOHHH DUH IT’S SHADESMAR
wack y fun!
ARE DREHY AND SKAR OKAY???? THEY DIDN’T COME WITH???
ARE THEY OKAY?
OH NO OH NOO I’M GONNA WORRY AOBUT THEM FOREVER
Adolin, say hi to your swwooooorrdddd
....the Oathgate has souls?
what?
Fearspren: gross.
I knew they were all bigger on the inside, as it were, but. #yikes?
“Kaladin’s not well.” “I have to be well.”
BRB SOBBING ABOUT KALADIN
I’M!
HE’S SO STRONG
I’M! HELP!
GIANT CLAW? UNMADE!!?? LET’S KILL IT. IDK IF WE CAN BUT CAN WE TRY??
“sword lady” HEH
ok well, at least we know Drehey is alive, since Shallain bumped into his soul, which is both TERRIFYING and REALLY COOL
YOU’RE NOT NOTHING, ADOLIN, YOU ARE EVERYTHING AND I LOVE YOU.
*long keening noises*
I FELL ON THE FLOOR
“Hey,” Adolin said. “It will be all right.” “I survived Bridge Four,” Kaladin growled. “I’m strong enough to survive this.” “I’m pretty sure you could survive anything. Storms, bridgeboy, the Almighty used some of the same stuff he put into Shardblades when he made you.” Kaladin shrugged. But as they walked onto the next platform, his expression grew distant again. He stood while the rest of them moved on. Almost like he was waiting for their bridge to dissolve and dump him into the sea. “I couldn’t make them see,” Kaladin whispered. “I couldn’t...couldn’t protect them. I’m supposed to protect people, aren’t I?”
GUESS WHICH PART BROKE MEGAN
GUESS WHICH PART DUMPED MY HEART ON THE FLOOR
ANYWAY, I’M CRYING
THISISFINE.PNG
“I’m frightened. I talk when I’m frightened.” I LOVE HIM.
ADOLIN’S HELOIGN HIM HE’S MAKIN HIM TALK TO DISTSRAT HIM AND MAKE HIM JEEP WALKING AND I”M
I LOV A SUNSHINE BOY
SO MUCH
...is Vivenna okay?
oh shiiit, Adolin is? king????
sort of? almost??
oh man, he’s gonna be SO GOOD AT IT!!!! LOOK AT HIM TAKING CHARGE AND TAKING CARE OF EVERYONE. HE’S SUCH A GOOD LEADER, HE’S GOING TO BE SOOOOOO GOOOOOOODDD AT THIS!!!!
that chapter was a Lot
OH NO A SZETH CHAPTER
I’ve only been asking for this for tHE WHOLE BOOK
but now I’m gonna be MORE SAD
.......idk how I feel about the soul-after-image thing. it’s interesting, but I’m still a lil weirded out by Szeth...you know...being alive?
huh. Vasher knows about the magic fish? So....does this validate Lisa’s theory about the fish and the birds from that other cosmere thing I can’t remember bc I haven’t read it?
holy shit, that’s a LOT of skybreakers.....
...who have been around the WHOLE TIME???? WTF
So...Szeth can hear the Spiritual Realm.....and is going to bond a spren, of the Cognitive Realm...and is in the Physical Realm... so does that make him the Avatar, Master of All Three Realms?
(while he may have a lot to learn, I believe that Szeth can save the world)
hm. they’re so...regimented. militaristic. ritualized. They’ve got tests and rules for getting in and it’s all very well-put-together. and it’s WEIRD compared to everyone else stumbling into their Ideals. Is this what is was like before the Recreance? or is this just the Skybreakers being Skybreakers?
why are there kaladin flashbacks in the dalinar book, why, brandon, why must you hurt me in this way
Brandon: *mentions Tien* Me, softly: “no”
HE REALIZED HE COULD KILL AND THAT’S WHAT TERRIFIED HIM
THISISFINE.PNG
I’M EMOTIONAL AND KALADIN IS SAD AND I’M UPSET
Also, Syl just. grabbing his arm and snuggling him is VERY GOOD, SHE IS VERY GOOD, AND SHE SHOULD BE WORSHIPED FOR BEING SO VERY WONDERFUL
“It cannot be holy. If it truly were, it would have burned me away long ago.” I’M SAD NOW, THANKS.
I have weird emotions about people losing their faiths, and Szeth’s character arc has been particularly. compelling to me.
“Here’s what you have to do: fight him and win!” has the same energy as that obnoxious Assassin’s Creed “tip” that’s like “the trick to staying alive to is get your enemy’s health bar to zero while keeping your above zero” and I’M SO PLEASED.
ooohh shit
he drew Nightblood
which I feel is NOT RECOMMENDED
# Y I K E S
Skybreakers take the “lawful” part of DnD alignments to a very unhealthy extreme
tbh they’re a lil fucked up, ngl
Skybreakers make me uncomfortable, is what I’m saying.
“he had never mastered the ‘sleep anywhere’ skill the grunts bragged about” NEERRRRDD
WHEN WILL ADOLIN REALIZE HE’S A REALLY GOOD LEADER??? SOMEONE TELL HIM, I WOULD BUT I’M TOO FAR AWAY.
oh that makes sense
I was confused for a hot second about how Vivenna knew Adolin’s kata, but she probably learned it from Vasher who...also...taught Adolin. Duh.
“I’m just a woman who has been constantly out of her league since adolescence.” Viveennnnaaaaaa, darling. You’ll be all right.
also that makes total sense--the Horneater Peaks? If they’ve got a portal, it makes sense they’re so much more in tune to the spren. Easier border crossings.
PEOPLE live in this realm? What the??
I don’t know Nazh, but the fact that he has an embarrassing tattoo due to Horneater lager bad decisions DELIGHTS ME
hm. idk why I’d sort of assumed that Dalinar went to visit the Nightwatcher before Gavilar died, but. maybe I’m wrong. Maybe it was a consequence of Gavliar’s death. 
“the other one” GET FUCKED WITH A CACTUS, PAST!DALINAR 
OOHH
SOFT BOY
Renarin is such a Good
also, Dalinar HUGGING is SO GOOD KEEP DOING THAT THAT WILL HELP
“Humans, you must stop your emotions. They are very inconvenient here.” I think, Pattern dear, that Shallan rather thinks emotions are inconvenient everywhere.
mmmmmmmmmmmmm
HERE WE ARE AGAIN
ANGER IS ALWAYS THE FIRST STAGE OF DEPRESSION
HELLO, KALADINMEGAN BRAIN, IT’S BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU WERE SO NEATLY SPELLED OUT BUT HERE WE ARE AGAIN
“You’re not angry at anyone, you’re just looking for something to latch onto. Something to feel.” To stave off the darkness of unfeeling and anger is easy. It’s irrational and warm and so easy. So it’s always the first one to go.
“It would continue until numbness seemed preferable.” GOD YUP. THERE IT IS.
It’s still really validating and really, really unsettling to see your brain problems spelled out so succinctly.
oh lord
“Men he loved, killing each other.”
I’M UPSET
(and the very tiny garbage part of my brain goes, ‘see he LOVES Moash’)
ADOLIN TAKING THE REARGUARD BECASUE SOMETIMES KALADIN NEEDS LOOKING AFTER I’M EMOTIONAL
Syl had a different Kaladin before Kaladin?? Wild.
and GOD but the symbology of the LIGHTHOUSE in Kaladin’s chapter. I’m. <3
EEEYYYY NAVANI!!!
she made them carry their own chairs, GOD THE MEANING BEHIND THAT, I LOVE HER
“Elhokar and Adolin are safe somewhere.” ABOUT THAT....
LOPEN, PLS
Bridge Four’s unwavering belief in Kaladin is SURE A THING. I love them SO MUCH.
also, god, MY BOYS, here they are, eating all the food and being ridiculous losers at a formal event I HAVE MISSED THEM SO
god, fuc you Ialai. ofc she didn’t carry her own chair, fukin JERK
good to know the assholery of the Sadeas name is being upheld, even after his death
god, every time Taravangian is mentioned, my gut just clenches, he makes me SO NERVOUS
GOD YES OH MY GOD, LIFT VS ROCK EATING CONTEST PLS GIMME MORE
I have forgotten that I love Sebarial. Petition for him to show up more often.
OH GOOD HE’S HAVING A BAD DAY. EXCELLENT. HE’S MUCH BETTER WHEN HE’S STUPID
...unless he’s super smart today and just pretending to be stupid.
fuck
IT’S SO HARD TO TELL WITH HIM ARGH
ANYONE ELSE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE DISCUSSION OF INVADING SHINOVAR WHEN SHINOVAR IS THE ONLY PLACE THAT DOESN’T HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE AT THIS COUNCIL???? JUST ME? OKAY.
also they keep talking about Shinovar as a redoubt and a haven, but....didn’t the Everstorm--going the wrong way--destroy Shinovar? Has anyone checked??
Navani is so clever and it’s brilliant.
“Taravangian was talking about having you tour Vedenar personally”....alone....so he can MURDER YOU. BAD IDEA. ABORT MISSION.
KALADIN HAD AN OLD LADY SLAVE FRIEND WHO DIED AND I’M SAD AGAIN DAMNIT
“He’s got battle fatigue. We have to watch him when he’s sitting around doing nothing, not when he’s got a specific mission.” MMMMMMHHHMMMMMMM
the future is forbidden, but not to Truthwatchers, sooooooo... is. this “Oracle”. a.......... Herald? PERCHANCE.
(He’s not, but I AM SUSPICION INCARNATE)
Weren’t they lying at the beginning and saying that Shallan was an Elsecaller? Because Odium thinks she’s an Elsecaller for some reason. And I wonder...who he’s spying through and where his attention is focused and who told him the lie?
KALADIN JUST WANTS TO SAVE HIS DAD IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK
aight, which world does canned food come from? How far ahead is the mistborn world whose name I can’t remember right now but it begins with an s SCADRIAL YEAH THAT ONE how far ahead is Scadrial in technological progression? Where does the Stormlight Archive fall on the mistborn timeline?
ADOOOLLIINNN. TALK! TO YOUR SPREN!!!
THEY DON’T KNOW??? THE BOYS DON’T KNOW? HOW THEIR MOTHER DIED?
HOW DO THEY NOT KNOW?
oh my god
that
god, that’s a huge lie to believe for so, so long. ohhh my goddd
someone has been writing down all the Unmades’ names, right? So I can look them up in the Coppermind later and be confused and try to work out which is which and what they do and how terrified I should be of them? cool thanks.
HELLO DARKNESS, MY OLD FRIEND
HE’S GONNA TELL US SECRETS!!!!! ARE THEY USEFUL!? WILL I LEARN THINGS ABOUT THE HERALDS!!!!??
I have one (1) priority in this establishment
...why does Syl have color
who is she
also LIGHTSPREN/REACHERS??? COOL AS FUCK OMG
“You don’t fly, you fall the wrong way.” Hehehehehehe <3
I HAVE MISSED KALADIN’S SELF-DEPRECATING JOKES THAT ARE FUNNY BUT ALSO VERY PAINFUL god, I love him. I love him so much. idk if y’all know this about me.
...ok, but the punny banter between Kaladin and Shallan is SO NICE Why do they have to be mean to each other so often why can’t they just be terrible sarcastic pun buddies?
“In that polished breastplate and striking figure, with her talk of chasing bounties and traveling worlds. She’s deeply mysterious.” CAREFUL, SHALLAN, YOUR BI IS SHOWING.
“The feeling was friendship, but neither of them had ever experienced it.” 
NOPE
NOOOOOOPPEE
WHO WANTS TO BET THIS SCENE IS SHIP FODDER DEAR LORD
Kaladin, darling, that shit is SO UNHEALTHY, DO NOT ENCOURAGE THIS
god
also like. darling. no. “I wish I didn’t have to care” DARLING ALL YOU DO IS CARE WHO WOULD YOU BE WITHOUT CARING
THIS IS GOOD FOR NEITHER OF YOU STOP
DO NOT ENCOURAGE THAT IN HER AND DO NOT WISH THAT FOR YOURSELF, jesus
lord, ok, well, I’ve read 100 pages, so on that disappointing character note, I’m going to go to bed.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: I got this template from tenseoyong and I could not find the original creator to give proper credit to. I was waiting for someone to FINALLY request this for V. Like he's the most fatherly (?) of them all in my opinion!!! And he's all in for having 3-5 kids so don't even fight me there.
A = Announcement.- How do you tell him and the world that you’re expecting?
You didn't know you were pregnant until you were about four months in. It was rare but it happened for you two and you had felt no symptoms the entire time. He'd be so pumped for the arrival of twins but he's lowkey stressing because he feels like he has less time to prepare and that he "lost four months."
B = Books.- Did he read the books?
He doesn't read the books and he never will. He's more like a 'wing it' person so he'll go with the flow of things. Somehow he knows everything about the process of birth??? Did he study this before or something bc he really knows his stuff?!?!
C = Cuddles.- Who cuddles the baby more?
He definitely would. He's just so happy to finally have a little version of him and you running around. Whenever he holds the baby he daydreams about things they'll do together. Until he gets soft when it's time for them to go to school for the first time, leave for college, get married and oml take the baby away from him he's crying and smiling at the same time.
D = Daddy.- His reaction to being called Daddy and it setting in.)
You know that gummy smile? Exactly his face when he's called 'daddy' for the first time and it's not in bed ;)))
E = Empty.- Who goes to the store when you guys run out of supplies?
He would volunteer to babysit while you go out but when you come home with your arms full of bags he'd scold you for not letting him help. He didn't know you all needed that much and if he had known he would've went along to make it easier for you.
F = Feeding time- Who does feeding time?
He's all for it. Pretending the food is an airplane and the baby's mouth is the airport. Little plane noises and loud cheers when the baby eats well. All him.
G = Grumpy baby. - Who is better at dealing with a grumpy baby?
There are just some times a grumpy baby can't be calmed so you two go back and fourth to try and but your baby back to sleep while the other is doing something productive like cleaning, laundry, sleepinggggg.
H = How?- how many kids does he want?
"3 if we don't have time but 5 if we do have time" my ass. V wants at least five but that's probably not going to stop him from having more.
J = Jokes.- best dad joke?
Probably stole it from Jin but its, "What do you call a fish with two knees? A two-knee fish!!!"
K = Kisses.- His favorite place to kiss the baby.
He kisses their hands while they are laying on their back and he's just tickling their stomach and they giggle so loud; it's just really cute how v and his children are so close.
L = Little.- How he feels when he holds the baby for the first time.
Literally his world freezes and all he can focus on is his first born in his arms; how they instantly stopped crying when the doctor put them in his arms, how tiny they really are, their hair, eyes, nose, mouth, their teeny tiny fingers and toes. He soaks it all in and he'll never forget how the baby looked. Not even when he is old and frail.
M = Mommy.- what does he call you?
V would definitely call you "momma" along with the baby but he'll bump up the couple pet name game a lot bc he falls in love with you more nd more everyday and the kids are absolutely disgusted by how much skinship you two do. Like V is always hugging you from behind and kissing your cheek and he'll kiss your lips when the kids groan how gross it is when he kisses your forehead. A smirk on his face.
N = Nappies.- who deals with the really bad diapers?
It's all a team effort. He'd act like a doctor in surgery, even pulling out a face mask if it was that bad. You'd hand him the diaper, wipes, etc. when he asked for one; like an assistant would. Lowkey it's just really funny watching you two do childcare because it's always fun for you guys and you make a game out of it.
O = Onesies- Who likes to dress the baby in ridiculous outfits?
He will make sure his kid is fly as hell, but you draw the line at a gucci belt. Why would a baby need a belt???
P = Pet names- names he calls the baby.
"Chubs" bc of their chubby baby cheeks that grandma's love to pinch. Each kid gets a new nickname, one that relates to their personality, traits, etc.
Q = Questions.- How many questions does he ask the nurse?
He wouldn't ask the nurse anything, the only questions he have he'll ask his own mom. She did such a good job raising him and his siblings why would it be different for his own child?
R = Rely- what is the biggest thing you rely on each other for?
(This one is always so hard for me to write for idk why but it is) Ok so I guess you both would want the other to side with you on how to raise your child? Let me explain a bit. Let's say you tell the kid 'no' about something but then the kid goes to v and he says 'yes' to whatever it is. You two want to be on the same page as the other and want proper communication through out the entire family.
S = Sleep duty. - who gets up when it’s really late at night?
Teamwork makes the dream work. You both would take turns but if for some reason one of you is sleeping through the baby's cry the one that is awake will so it. Let's be real one of you will wake the other up and plea that they do it.
T = Trepidation.- fears as a new parent.
He'd be really nervous about saying the wrong thing here and there and scaring the child in some way. He'd be looking at the big picture about everything, how his actions now could affect his child's future. He really just worries his child will be unhappy because of him.
U = Ultra sounds.- His reactions to the ultrasounds.
He points out the baby before the nurse does and she's just like "Okay no one ever sees the baby first bc it's difficult to see but I guess this dad has some super powers or smth" and he marvels at the photos for weeks, printing extra out just to give them to his managers, the other members, his family. And if it's around the holidays, the baby's first picture is being printed on to Christmas cards.
V = Values.- what is the most important value he wants to teach your child.
One of the many things he hopes his children take from him is that he doesn't want them to have to depend on anyone for anything when they grow up. He wants them to have their own backs and to be able to take proper care for themselves for when he is gone and can't do it for them.
W = Water.- Who gives the babe the baths?
Man V is in the bath with the babe in a pair of swimming shorts and washing his and the baby's hair simultaneously. He has no other time to shower since he's busy being a dad and a celebrity at the same time.
X = X-mas- what do you guys plan for the holidays?
It would really depend on how old your baby is or if you were still pregnant. If you were still preggers he'd prefer to stay at home, just in case the baby wants out. But if the baby was a newborn he'd also prefer staying at home, his first Christmas with his new family would be special to him. but if the baby was more like a toddler he'd go and visit your and his parents, letting his son or daughter run around with their cousins whom they only met for the first time that same day. Either way he wants to get professional pictures done and they are hella cheesy at that.
Y = Yelling.- How many fights do the two of you get in?
It's not like loud arguing fights but when you guys are mad at each other you guys only talk when you have to. It sucks for V bc he values communication but when the baby is there he doesn't want to argue in front of them. If the fight started in the beginning of the day most likely it'll end at night when the baby is asleep and you guys are talking quietly in bed, trying to figure out the source of the problem. He hates going to bed angry so it will get resolved or else he is not sleeping a wink that night.
Z = Zoo- How crazy is the house after the birth?
It's just a mess. Somehow there is baby food on the ceiling. Dried wipes are everywhere. Toys all on the floor. It gets even worse when the baby learns how to walk.

my college dorm packing list:
the school year’s winding down here, and I know a lot of you are about to start your first year of college. sometimes, this involves moving into a dorm, and there are so many dorm packing lists out there that tell you about so many “”necessities.”” this really easily gets overwhelming, so here’s the list of things that I have in my dorm right now that I really appreciate having!
bedding:
two sets of sheets - make sure they’re the right size for the bed (often dorm beds are twin xl). i got two sets which included a pillow case, fitted sheet, and regular sheet. sometimes, the ‘college’ sets have pockets on the sides of the fitted sheets which can be super useful, esp if you decide to loft your bed!
pillows - when I was buying dorm stuff, i had the designer dorm room in mind (which is the goal for a lot of people when shopping, but it’s not super easy to attain. just stick to what works for u!). this, for me, involved pillows. i have 2 normal pillows (either i sleep on both or i alternate them out so no one of them gets too flat), and a smaller, soft decor pillow (i use this mostly to block up the space between the bed and the wall so my other pillows don’t fall off when i use them as a backrest haha), and a fourth, white fluffy square pillow (this one just looked cute, but i ended up using it as a desk chair cushion bc my chair didn’t come with one, it’s been a lifesaver!!)
comforter (tbh it’s always so hot in my dorm room that i hardly use this, and mostly just stick to the sheets haha, but it’s definitely important in winter)
extra blankets - just a couple lighter ones i use when i just wanna curl up or when i don’t need something as heavy as a comforter
foam mattress pad - !!!!! cannot stress this one enough. it makes my bed so comfortable. my dorm bed is now nicer than my home bed. i 100% recommend getting one of these (and make sure its the thick sheet of foam, not those weird cloth ones that make you feel weird when you touch it haha)
desk:
desk chair cushion (mentioned above) - wait until you see your room for this one, your desk chair might already have a cushion. if it doesn’t, get something to use as one. your butt will thank you, and it’ll make it so much easier to study. (also some people i know wanted to get their own desk chair - the rolly cushy kind - so if that’s what you want, go for it!)
desk lamp! - if you’re like me, you’ll stay up hours later than your roommate, and you need to be able to see. the kind i got was actually given away free from my uni, but it has usb ports and 3 different levels of intensity for the light itself, so it’s really nice!
cups/pen holders - stay organized. i brought a mug for this and ended up getting a few free cups at giveaways, and vases from flowers and things like that that I use to hold the pens on my desk.
misc desk organizers - to keep your study space put together and to keep all your stuff in a decent place (it’s so easy to lose things, even in such a small space)
closet/clothes storage:
hangers - i just got a couple packages (about 24 total i think?) which ended up being the perfect amount for me
sweater organizer shelves thing - these are everywhere at stores for dorm shopping. it’s basically a stack of box shelves. they also have drawers you can get for them, but i don’t have any of those. i just stuff my sweaters/cardigans/sweatshirts/extra sheets in there, it’s nice and saves a lot of closet space!
shower/hygiene supplies:
towels - i got 4 towels, just so i don’t have to do laundry as often. it ended up being a good amount for me. also a lot of people i know have washcloths, which wasn’t something i thought about but is a good idea if you use them!
shower caddy - a necessity! i use one of the bag ones, instead of the plastic ones, and i’ve heard a lot of people with the hard plastic ones wishing they had the mesh bag type (but obvs u do u)
dry shampoo - super useful for when you didn’t get a chance to shower and want to at least try to look a bit more cleaned up
laundry detergent - pretty straightforward. also hamper/laundry bag/dryer sheets/whatever else you need to get ur clothes clean (also stock up on quarters if you have to pay per load)
misc:
hobby supplies - i do a lot of crocheting/brush lettering/reading, whatever your hobbies are, you’ll wanna do them, so keep stuff in your room for it
wall calendar/white board calendar - useful for planning and remembering important dates (also i use this to keep up w what my roomie has going on bc we don’t talk about that sorta thing a whole lot but it’s nice to know when she’ll be back/out of the room/whatever)
whiteboard - i have a bigger wall mounted one, but i use it for assignment/meeting reminders and also as a study tool for before exams. plus it’s fun to doodle on when i really don’t feel like doing anything  haha
string lights - sure, they’re a classic dorm cute thing, but they’re also useful when you want just enough light to see, but not enough to keep your roommate up or be distracting. i use mine all the time, plus it makes the room feel more warm and homey!
i also have a 10 foot long phone charger which is my heart and soul i love it sm it’s so useful bc i plug it in under my bed in the corner and not only reaches up to my bed, but also over to my desk. 10/10 would recommend.

I know it’s not the end of the year yet but im just reflecting and like, I’ve talked abt All The Shit in snippets before but I just wanna. lay it all out. so lotsss of text rambling ahead
this year has gone so quickly but things have changed so much -- in January, and honestly for a good half of the year, I believed genuinely I would never ever be able to live a regular and functioning life, and I didn’t know how I was going to cope with having to live the rest of my life. I didn’t feel like I was living in the real world and I didn’t know how to get there bc I was preoccupied w mental health and trauma related shit every single day, I felt completely trapped within myself and had my only emotional support taken away from me so had no idea how to deal with it. Leaving uni was almost unbearable and despite being ok now I still don’t like thinking about it. Having to leave my counsellor, having just come off antidepressants, leaving uni and moving back home whilst being in a bad place w my family, being isolated from my friends... like it was easily one of the worst times of my life. And the pain of knowing everything about my uni life was perfect apart from the fact that I couldn’t cope with any sort of life was really hard to take. The only comfort was knowing that leaving was truly inevitable, but it didn’t really make the situation any easier. I still miss that time and the life I could have had, but most of the time when I’m happy, I can recognise that I had to leave in order to get better, and it doesn’t feel so bad to be where I am now.
bc around May of this year after I finished hypnotherapy and GP counselling and everything sort of cleared up in my head, I suddenly had so much space to think it was like I no longer had to be so close to everything that was bad -- if before I was stuck in a house I didn’t know how to get out of it was like being able to walk outside and breathe again. I could walk away from my pain and bad memories and visit when I wanted to instead of being constantly surrounded by it, which after like 4 years of that shit feels pretty incredible even now. Like I’m literally living a life right now that I thought wasn’t possible for me?  Its funny I was thinking about it the other day how I’m p much living the life that all my friends had when they were 17 (minus school) -- learning to drive, having a part time job and not doing much else -- and i guess it makes sense seeing as that’s where I got stuck inside. I’m re-entering the world as a different person, and I need to work on being more open to everyone and everything but there’s time, and I’m taking it slowly.
Also Really Cool Things about 2017:
I started learning to drive this year
I got a job this year (a physically demanding one at that)
I’m getting better at social stuff and working on not isolating myself
Fewer daydreaming episodes/ less compulsion to escape/avoid (this one is harder and not perfect but. it’s got better)
I feel genuine! excitement! at most life prospects and hobbies and things I want to study and create
my anxiety and depression have largely been reduced to a few symptoms which I can manage ok most of the time
the thought that I’m not a capable person is seeming less and less likely because like. I can do shit. I have many years to do shit.
My sense of self and identity is getting stronger and more positive I think too. I no longer feel like just an outline of a person that ppl are just walking past
Things will never be perfect (bc perfection doesn’t exist and that’s fine!), there’s still hangover from all the bad shit and I still have a lot of growing and learning to do but like, I’m capable! I can do it! Love to learn I do!
on that note -- and I don’t really want to make a laundry list of Things I Need To Work On bc rlly I believe in doing things at my own pace and not overthinking or pressuring myself but -- Things I want to do/ think about doing in 2018:
get another job (and therefore more routine which everything else sort of slots in to)
meditate and/or do yoga in small increments!
read more
learn more abt ethical clothing and local farmers markets
keep my room tidier
keep myself more occupied and therefore daydream less
think about applying to college for next autumn
accept the ways that I have changed
be a little braver in social situations and accept that it might feel too exposing; tell people how I feel, show people how I feel
and that’s that :’)

went for a kickass bike ride except Jordan’s bike broke and there were no roads we could get scooped from immediately by us and then I took us the wrong way for a long time and then my sister wouldn’t pick us up but, I biked almost 6 miles and sure as hell got my walking in for the day. I came home, hungry, and called my dad and asked what dinner plans were since my mom’s out of town and sort of implied getting food out would be food. I’m exhausted, don’t want to cut up vegetable and sautee them and really just wanted Panera but he suggested his favorite Chinese and Japanese restaurant which is fine with me too except calorie counting is a little tricky there. But I put some laundry in, am about to shower and put on some makeup and then get some yummy sushi. I would also like to get some other things done but we’ll see. I was hungry and knew I’d be more tempted to pig out if I didn’t have a snack, so I had a plain tortilla and a peanut butter ball with a diet soda and then got some water and now I’m nice and full and can wait for dinner and I won’t be tempted to overeat. the peanut butter ball I had is something my mom makes- she tosses vegan chocolate chips, coconut flakes, oats, peanut butter and maybe vanilla extract and a couple other things into a bowl, makes 110ish-calorie balls out of them and tosses them in the freezer in ziploc bags, 3 a piece. even while I was trying to lose weight, I’d still have 3 or even 6 in a day. they are filling and the main components, the peanut butter and oats, aren’t the worst things to eat for a snack, but I was consuming too many calories cuz they tasted good and I wasn’t really working as well as I should’ve on impulse/portion control. there’s nothing wrong with having 6 or even 12 if I want to spend my calories that way every long once in a while, but I was eating too many calories. I’m proud that I was able to have one, and just one, and a tortilla making for a 200 calorie snack. I don’t feel deprived, I don’t feel hungry, I’m not tempted to go downstairs and eat an entire bag of something. I feel proud and good!!! and it’s only Thursday, which means I still have all of tomorrow to make strides toward my goal for my Saturday weigh-in.
I’ll be in NYC for most of week 7, which means two things: I can’t weigh-in on Saturday morning and eating well will be a challenge. The other part is, I’m going with my mom and a good friend from school and the friend has been known to encourage me to eat poorly during college. “I’m about to deadass eat an entire chipotle burrito with chips and guac” would warrant a “gooooooood, yes” from her. And I’m not saying I’ve never supported my friends’ bad eating habits bc it seems like the kind/cool thing to do, but I’ve noticed she often makes it a point to encourage others’ overeating and I’m worried she’ll be uncomfortable/annoyed with me trying to eat well even though she does know I’m trying to be healthier this summer. It’s fucking NYC, which is not the best town to be counting calories in, but here’s the way I see it: I’ll pack some almonds, protein bars, stevia, and maybe even a couple bananas or apples in my carry on in a clear ziploc bag. I’ll bring a snack a day with me out. I won’t get unnecessarily froofy coffee drinks when we go out, I’ll go for salads for lunch and cereal/fruit/eggs/coffee for breakfast and I’ll be diligent and do my best. That’s all I can do. I’m not going to not go out for ice cream in NYC with my friend and mom, but if that’s in the plans I am going to plan ahead and eat less during the day. It sounds annoying and it might be annoying, but my weight loss success is more important than being a little annoying. Part of me is like “you’ll only be there 3 full days and 2 half days, just take a few days off” but I don’t want to. I’m enjoying watching the number on the scale fall, I don’t want to see myself eat 3,000 calories in a day, and 5 bad days of eating might set me back a couple weeks. I’m ahead of schedule and want to keep it that way. I want to be rocking a bikini next June, not next July or July, not August. That sort of thing. Inevitably, people make mistakes and I am going to have days in the years to come where I just plain and simple fuck up and overeat. So I shouldn’t further sabotage myself by intentionally Not Trying and intentionally overeating on vacation. Yeah, it’s vacation, and there are going to be tons of yummy restaurants with all kinds of amazing, world-class foods. But I want to do myself proud. I want to at the very least not gain any weight. On days that I travel it’ll be easier to eat less, and hopefully we will stay busy those three days we’re out and about and hopefully we will burn a lot of calories from walking. I also want to do lots of activities; between plays, museums, shopping, exploring, etc. I think we’ll stay busy. I wouldn’t mind skipping lunches so I can indulge more at dinner and it’s cheaper anyways. Anyways, the bottom line is I’m going to do everything I can do to keep my intake under 2,000 calories the entire time I am in New York.
