How to Turn All Your Essays into Feminist Rants No Matter the Subject Matter: An Autobiography by Me.
I’m pouty in this photo because of my red wine stained lips (yes I had one glass yes I am cheating at the no drinking thing by only drinking when I don’t have to pay for it but we have about 30 bottles of wine in our house so IT’S NOT MY FAULT OKAY)
also you know on a slightly more serious note, I’ve been struggling with photographing myself lately and even looking at myself or thinking about myself as a person. I hate myself. I will continue to fight against this self-hatred until the day I die. I know this, and I want to fight it, because life is much more beautiful when you learn to cherish every fucking weird characteristic that you have (not just physically). But for now I hate myself and it hurts and every single day I have to remind myself multiple times that I am worth it and I deserve to have a voice and I am not just my looks and a thousand and one other things
I’m actually doing really well at the moment pushing past these feelings. Like I push myself every god damn day just by going out and attending things and offering up opinions even though my head is like “shut up you fucking idiot”
I know this isn’t unique on tumblr (or in life) and a lot of people are dealing with this shit but this is just a nice reminder for myself that
(a) I am real, I exist
(b) my feelings are real, they exist
(c) I am doing my fucking best and it’s getting a little easier day by day
anyway grumpy faced Ellen is outties
I went and climbed a mountain this afternoon with my mama, it was good fun and made me realise that I should do more bush walking, so I’m going to investigate trails in the Blue Mountains things
other than that I just spent the whole day listening to k-pop and studying, it’s been super uneventful but that’s a-ok

I have had the weirdest ups and downs in mood today
I didn’t get up until about 10:30-11am because I just felt super shitty, and even once I got up I didn’t start studying until about 1pm and just ate chocolate and moped a whole lot
but this afternoon I’ve done quite a lot of reading and went for a bike ride and used natural skin scrubs and made an awesome stir-fry, so my mood is definitely up
also I’ve just been listening to these playlists all afternoon which I definitely recommend if you’re feeling down or bored or whatever
and I’ve yet to watch the first ep of Game of Thrones so I have that to look forward to later tonight!!
