this is my blog's alter ego. I tumbl quotes, graphs, science-y things, and quite a lot of harry potter/doctor who/etc/etc. Sometimes I also pin, and tweet, and find crafty things to do.

“The world’s beauty is in soap bubbles, little specks of dust, galaxy shards, tiny things swept under the rugs that we stomp on day after day because we’re too busy to notice small treasures...The busy ghost presses his hands into my back and pushes me one way or the other to do this or that. I want to stop to see, to think, to breathe. I want to put my ear to the soil and listen for the ants. I want to daydream, fly a kite, run my hands through thick, green grass...” (Ophelia Blooming)

Hank Green's Tumblr: Understanding is the only Inviolable Skill →

I was in a fancy restaurant in Spokane Washington when I realized it. I had, in front of me, a gelatinous block of wheat gluten and nutritional yeast that cost $22 and beyond that, a gorgeous stained glass window that was probably installed in the building more than 100 years ago.

On my walk…

Great read about the greatest skill of all: understanding, and why we all need to be versed in it.

This song is about libraries and namedrops Judy Blume, John Green and other greats from the YA world and it’s by Kimya and I think it’s the best song.  I was just pogoing to it in my room.

loving it!

“Nerd boys. I know that nerd boys don’t sparkle in the sunshine, but they’re sensitive, they’re caring, they’re sweet, they’ll do nice stuff for you, they’re a little bit needy, I will grant you that they’re a little bit needy.”

John Green just casually summing up ~my type~

“Oh, and lastly let me explain something briefly to boys. Gentlemen, nerd girls are the world’s greatest, underutilised romantic resource. And guys, do not tell me that nerd girls aren’t hot because that shows a Paris Hilton-esque failure to understand hotness.”
