It's All But A Lie

I sit here trying to make sense of everything; how a person could just lie about how they feel, how deception suddenly became a norm to fulfilling ones own desire. Sometimes I couldn't even phantom how it's so normal, like it's nothing. Like playing with someone's emotion is a game that has to be conquered. I almost got myself fooled, almost. Then the wall I have built, saved me.

All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

books

One of the very first book I read this year is All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven. Normally I don't read a lot of young adult books but what draws me to this was its premise. It's story about mental illness and depression, about Violet and Finch who met on the ledge of the school bell tower when one of them supposedly wanted to commit suicide.

It might sound a bit off for some of you but this book really talks about what life is from a young adult's perspective, in which I believe we can all relate to. Needless to say, this book brought tears to anyone to reads it.

"I know life well enough to know you can't count on things staying around or standing still, no matter how much you want them to." - Finch

Then I Kissed Him

Photography

Who: Elizabeth Dare
What: Go

Every photo has its story and this is mine.

"I love you". Those were the words he whispered to me. I couldn't help but feel the butterflies in my stomach. Perhaps because I knew I love him too. I feel like the time stopped and I found myself right here with him at this quiet little corner of his apartment. Then I kissed him.

Disclaimer: These are not my personal story. This is just how I interpret the photos.

Susie Suh - Here With Me

music

This is one of the songs that I love listening to at the days end. It makes me want to drift off somewhere far away, while imagining all sorts of different things, dreams, aspirations and life in general. Perhaps it's her soothing voice that creates such effect and maybe it will do the same to you.

Colours To Try Right Now: Greys and Nudes

Fashion

More often than not I gravitate towards neutrals when it comes to my colour of choice and these are no exception. Greys and nudes are the epitome of clean and modern take on whites and blacks. It's warm yet subtle and that's what I love about it.
