1. What gets you through each day?


Umm…probably knowing that i have things to do/experience. Looking forward to things, I guess.


2. What is your relationship like with the internet?

Significantly cut down when I’m at school. Skyrockets when I’m at home. Sometimes I’ve been online until five am. Not healthy.

3. Do you have any siblings?

I have two brothers, one who is biological (22, lives in Japan) and a step brother who is 21 and lives in California

4. What age was your favorite to be?

Now that I look back on it eighteen was probably the best year because I learned about myself so much that year, I graduated high school and cut a lot of people who I thought I couldn’t live without out of my life, I went to college, became independent and learned a lot about myself,sometimes in the hard way, sometimes in the best way, and I feel like a real person now. It became my favorite when I looked back on it because I learned so much that year and grew a fuck ton.

5. What is your favorite poem or the poem that resonates most with you?

“i’m not sad
but the boys who are looking for sad girls always find me. i’m not a girl anymore and i’m not sad anymore. you want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated, so that people can say ‘wow, isn’t he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?’ you think i’ll be the dark sky so you can be the star? i’ll swallow you whole.”

It’s by Warsan Shire

6. What products do you use on your hair?

As of now, Optimum Salon Collection/Proclaim products. I’m planning on going natural soon though, so I think I’ll have to change stuff.

7. What did you want to be when you were 8-years-old?

A baker-firewoman-computer technician-ballerina-veterinarian-biologist-curator-painter-actress-CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Basically I wanted to be Barbie.

8. Have you tasted snow?

Yes! I make snow cream (snow sugar and milk) when it snows

9. What song(s) make you cry?

I don’t have songs that make me cry but I have songs for crying:

Cover Me Slowly-Deerhunter

White Gold-Metric

Like A Fool-Lawrence Arabia

The Space Between-Zero 7

You Are The Ocean-Phantogram

Nothing’s Burning-Telepopmusik

Paradise Circus-Massive Attack

Gotham-Animal Collective

Bed Space-Darwin Deez

10. When do you feel most alive?

It’s a tie between on a Friday night when I’m drunk and surrounded by people I love who love me and everything feels nice and floaty and filled with laughter and stupid jokes and a lot of love and I remember that things are Very Good and I have Good People who Love Me A Lot or when I’m doing activist things because I really like helping people and activism gave me a voice and made me feel like my voice was important and needed and it was really something I needed.

babyonce:

if u were wondering what liberal arts college is like there was a kid a couple years back who refused to live in the dorms and instead slept outside and was finally expelled when he was found roasting a squirrel in a fireplace

did i tell you about the time i wanted to borrow tk’s philosophy book and he told me he was down by the lake so i went there at like nine o clock bc i thought he was smoking

so i get there and i don’t see him and i’m waiting and waiting and then i hear someone calling me and i turn around and it’s tk

butt

ass

naked

and i ask him why and he was like “i set up a tent and i’ve been throwing knives in the bamboo forest and i just felt like being naked. it’s so nice out.”

and i just kinda grab the book and walk off and i wanted to be confused but i’m used to it by now
