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)

Kimya Dawson - The Library (with Aesop Rock)

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!

dig life.: I've been reading a lot of YA fiction lately. →

justsitstill:

What I really love about YA fiction is that by highlighting the things that teenage life orbits around, they’re actually just emphasizing the things that should be held onto (but are at risk of being forgotten) in adult life. Even as a university student, it’s easy to forget about friendship (real friendship, not binge drinking friendship) when you have papers to write and student loans to worry about. A lot of things change when you transition from being a teenager to an adult (I should know since I’m still in that transition) but that doesn’t mean you leave all the things you learnt and all the things you valued as a teenager behind.

Well said!
