suburban haze






colourful photos from a colourful summer.

6 th form is super weird and my emotions are basically 'ribs' by lorde. i went to north of france last weekend to see family friends and i walked through beautiful forests with trees that went on forever. i also noticed lots of MOTORBIKE GANGS?? chilling in the beaches of france and just riding around together in the countryside, they were similar to lana del rey's ride/west coast motorbikers but the real deal. weird/cool.

its been an okay week otherwise. except my cameras winder broke :( and it was v expensive (imo) to fix so now i'm super poor. will have some new photos developed by next week (photos are more of friends and less buildings - good thing). i need to learn how to develop my own negatives!! i feel like i would save quite a bit of money but i'm not sure if my mum would let me turn the bathroom into a darkroom... but on the upside my laptop is coming in 5 days so hopefully my next blog post will be typed from my beautiful new shiny macbook air ahhh. and i'll probably make lots more random super 8 collage videos like my cocorosie k-hole one i posted a few months ago now that i will have imovie. i should be writing essays and reading books instead of typing this so goodbye for now. hope you like the photos, i especially like the one of the fishes.

lily pads and lamentation





above are some photos i took in shanghai. it was raining and there was a forest and a lake filled with lily pads and people shuffling around with their umbrellas.

i've started 6th form now which feels really different and liberating but with a lot more responsibility and hella more work. been listening to a lot of pop music this week and been doing a lot of online shopping on korean clothing sites. i'm learning to ride a bike atm (super late to the cycling party i know). need to get stationary for school and be organized. i'll probably go shopping at muji for that sometime this week. also trying to turn some of my non-finished poems into songs but i'm bad at melodies. my friend katie and i were gonna form a 2 man band called 'breakfast food' (name kinda inspired by parks and rec) but so far its gone nowhere. neither have our short film plans... i should follow through with those. i have so many ideas and projects happening soon/right now so i'm pretty excited for this school new yr. i hope it doesn't go to fast. only just hit me that i have 2yrs left before uni. don't know what i want 2 be. i want to be everything, i guess.
