Boyfriend's parent's Air BnB Balcony that kisses the top of a maple tree. I collected tiny mini maple seeds the size of my pinky. Congrats, S, on being a doctor now!

Little birds for my cats to watch

R came over before he left for his big trip, I would not stop doing puppet bits, but he hit it anyways <3. I'm grateful that I can be super weird and still be hot.

Playing kickball

Grateful four my windowless basement classroom for keeping us safe and unaware.

Grateful four my friend, G, I feel like we could talk and giggle forever about everything, all of the time.

Grateful that I can walk around, driving makes me feel sad.

Mid May

I'm grateful for how life moves on and on and on and so do I. Last summer, I left a 4 year long relationship with someone who put me down every day, for the entire last year of our relationship, but insisted that we stay together. Leaving that, getting a new apartment (alone for the first time), losing some friends... Losing large parts of my identity and then scrambling to find my new pieces was really hard. Now I am back to loving and loving my life again <3. I think of the song "swimming song" (look it up) because it goes, "Last summer I went swimming, last summer I almost drowned, but them I held my breath, kicked my feet and moved my arms around." Sometimes in life I will feel like I'm drowning, but it's getting easier and easier to remember that I know how to swim. Now I feel like I swim with ease.
