I turn on my computer. I wait impatiently as it connects. I go...
I turn on my computer. I wait impatiently as it connects. I go online and my breath catches in my chest until I hear three little words: "You've got mail." I hear nothing, not even a sound on the streets of New York. Just the beat of my own heart. I have mail… from you.
"1. push yourself to get up before the rest of the world - start with 7am, then 6am, then 5:30am. go..."
"1. push yourself to get up before the rest of the world - start with 7am, then 6am, then 5:30am. go to the nearest hill with a big coat and a scarf and watch the sun rise.2. push yourself to fall asleep earlier - start with 11pm, then 10pm, then 9pm. wake up in the morning feeling re-energized and comfortable.
3. erase processed food from your diet. start with no lollies, chips, biscuits, then erase pasta, rice, cereal, then bread. use the rule that if a child couldn't identify what was in it, you don't eat it.
4. get into the habit of cooking yourself a beautiful breakfast. fry tomatoes and mushrooms in real butter and garlic, fry an egg, slice up a fresh avocado and squirt way too much lemon on it. sit and eat it and do nothing else.
5. stretch. start by reaching for the sky as hard as you can, then trying to touch your toes. roll your head. stretch your fingers. stretch everything.
6. buy a 1L water bottle. start with pushing yourself to drink the whole thing in a day, then try drinking it twice.
7. buy a beautiful diary and a beautiful black pen. write down everything you do, including dinner dates, appointments, assignments, coffees, what you need to do that day. no detail is too small.
8. strip your bed of your sheets and empty your underwear draw into the washing machine. put a massive scoop of scented fabric softener in there and wash. make your bed in full.
9. organise your room. fold all your clothes (and bag what you don't want), clean your mirror, your laptop, vacuum the floor. light a beautiful candle.
10. have a luxurious shower with your favourite music playing. wash your hair, scrub your body, brush your teeth. lather your whole body in moisturiser, get familiar with the part between your toes, your inner thighs, the back of your neck.
11. push yourself to go for a walk. take your headphones, go to the beach and walk. smile at strangers walking the other way and be surprised how many smile back. bring your dog and observe the dog's behaviour. realise you can learn from your dog.
12. message old friends with personal jokes. reminisce. suggest a catch up soon, even if you don't follow through. push yourself to follow through.
14. think long and hard about what interests you. crime? sex? boarding school? long-forgotten romance etiquette? find a book about it and read it. there is a book about literally everything.
15. become the person you would ideally fall in love with. let cars merge into your lane when driving. pay double for parking tickets and leave a second one in the machine. stick your tongue out at babies. compliment people on their cute clothes. challenge yourself to not ridicule anyone for a whole day. then two. then a week. walk with a straight posture. look people in the eye. ask people about their story. talk to acquaintances so they become friends.
16. lie in the sunshine. daydream about the life you would lead if failure wasn't a thing. open your eyes. take small steps to make it happen for you."

"Instead of saying, 'Asexuality doesn't exist,' try saying, 'Asexuality is a sexual orientation just like bi, gay, lesbian, and pan.'
Instead of saying, 'You will know when it's time to have sex,' try saying, 'Love doesn't equal sex.'
Instead of saying, 'Have you seen a doctor?' try saying, 'There are many happy, healthy relationships that don't have sex involved in them.'
Instead of saying, 'This will pass, it is just a phase. Everyone wants sex sometimes,' try saying, 'Sexuality is fluid and exists on a huge spectrum. There are many different types of sexuality.'
Instead of saying, 'Sex is a natural part of adult relationships,' try saying, 'Sex and sexuality are complicated to figure out. Give yourself time and space to explore what you are feeling.'

I just re-remembered that it’s another year and that means another iteration of national novel writing month! I did it in november last year and as that was in the middle of the school year it was a terrible, terrible idea, so I’m doing camp nano in july this year. This will be my ninth year doing nano!
I’ve decided to return to the fantasy genre this time. Steampunk seems to be calling my name. There will definitely be mustaches and top hats. ALSO, very importantly, a gay adventuress couple. I’m a little too excited for that part.
I swear I’m actually going to try to write an outline this time.

Reasons why you should do Thing ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ
1. Every hour you spend doing Thing right now is an extra hour you will get to sleep. (◡‿◡✿)
2. Every hour you spend doing Thing right now is an extra hour you will get to read or talk with friends or watch that new episode of your favourite TV show or do something else you really love doing. ヽ(' ∇' )ノ
3. You will have to do Thing eventually whether you like it or not! Face Thing head-on and get it over with. You will look back and say to yourself, wow, I am so glad I did Thing three hours ago. ∩( ・ω・)∩
4. You will spend the same amount of time doing Thing whether you do Thing now or at 4am. You might as well get Thing done earlier! ≧(´▽｀)≦
5. Every time you do not do Thing or do Thing really late when you're tired and cranky and stressed out you feel like crap about yourself. If you do Thing now, you can avoid that stress and crankiness. Future you will be happy! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
6. It is midnight in a scary house and all of a sudden you see Thing! It is huge and scary and it has lots of teeth and you want to run away and hide. But then Thing meows and you realize that Thing was just a little kitty cat and you were seeing its shadow reflected on the wall. You should not dread doing Thing because your mind has made it seem a lot bigger and scarier than it actually is. Once you start working on Thing, you will realize how silly it is to make huge scary monsters out of kitty cats! ヽ(' ∇' )ノ
7. Do not curl up into a ball and think about how horrible you are for not getting Thing done earlier! You are not alone. We all do it! We all procrastinate and avoid doing Thing. It is alright. For now, try to numb yourself and just focus on doing Thing. It will be okay. (*´・ｖ・)
8. Stop every half hour and remind yourself of all the reasons why you should not procrastinate and do Thing earlier. I promise you that you will be able to gather the courage to do Thing. Good luck! (´ω｀★)

#omg do you ever think like #how Chekov and Sulu probably have old terran music in the ship's databanks #and whenever Spock delivers a particularly killer zinger on the bridge after an argument with Kirk #they just play that shit #[muffled bass thumping from speakers] #(thank fuck for better quality-speakers being one of Scotty's more discreet 'modifications') #meanwhile Jim just sits on and looks betrayed #while Bones calls the bridge and yells at them to 'TONE IT DOWN GOD DAMNIT JIM WHO TOLD YOU TO APPROVE THOSE MODIFICATIONS'
