Sometimes you just need to take a sick day for the sake of taking a sick day.
And here are my anthems this sick day:

Mermaids in the sea, staring at the stars. Oh how lovely you are. Lo eres. Vous êtes.
Here we go,
First week of my Second year of university just finished. I'm exhausted and tired, unsure yet sure of my decisions. Trying my best to not procrastinate while also trying to make sure I get a good amount of sleep.
I did a lot of finding myself this summer, and learning how to be okay with who I am. I'm quiet and prefer to be by myself, yet I love to be with friends once I get to my destination and start talking to them. I'm a social and confident butterfly when I'm with the right people where I'm comfortable and I'm a quiet hesitant girl when I feel overshadowed or observed closesly.
My music taste suits me.
Bon Iver
Jason Mraz
Ben Howard
Alt J
John Mayer
All quiet calming music, very me. I know that, I understand that about myself. Now only if I could become more okay with being open about it. Until I find the courage to do that is when I will find my other half.
I'm still young, I'm still nieve, I'm still afraid and I'm still curious. I know barely anything. There is so much for me to learn in this world that it overwhelms me at times. Scratch that, it overwhelms me on a daily almost hourly basis.
When I meet someone who knows more then me on many subject areas, it intimadates me, but it also drives me to learn more. I met this guy down town last weekend, "add a nose, add an eye". He made me completely realise what I want in a guy.
He was handsome, outgoing, athletic, musical, intelligent, worldly; basically everything I've ever aspired to be personally and work towards being everyday, put into a boy version. One issue, even though we were together for most of the night, he liked my friend more then me. But couldn't and wouldn't openly say it because his bestfriend had basically already dibbed her and he didn't want to go in between them.
I guess what I'm saying is that it was nice to know that a guy like him actually exists in this world. That there are more people like me out there, that I'm not so alone.
His music taste was slightly off of mine
Arctic Monkeys
Wu tang
Bob Marley
And he used to listen to Jack Johnson
So we kinda have the same music taste, plus I've been meaning to listen to all of those people for a while now anyways and just haven't gotten around to it.
He was very sweet and kind. Very gentlemen like yet he wasn't a push over, he was confident, sure of himself.
Plus he watches documentaries on physics and mermaids and basically everything else on the disocovery channel.
So basically I fell in love last weekend with a guy who even I know deep down is better suited with my oldest bestfriend or my NY bestfriend. Le sigh
I think its so easy for me to differentiate him from all of the other guys I've liked, because I wasn't in love with his eyes. Thats how I know that I don't actually like him like him. I just... well I aspire to be more like him.
It's nice feeling that, feeling inspired by a stranger I only knew for one night.
So thank you for that lovely boy, thank you for waking up that part of me thats slowly been trying to wake up over the course of the summer since nica.
Thank you.
Walking the streets to your house was like a story I was not ready for yet willing to go on. Hanging out at your house and watching you play guitar and sing along to arctic monkeys while trying to speak french when you were drunk was quite lovely and you are so adorable! Thank you for walking us home and staring at the stars when I did, and thank you for not pushing or pressuring me to stay over.
Thank you, "add a nose, add an eye".

You're a mountain that I can't climb yet, and I'm a painting but you're blinded.
Because this song reminds me of you. It reminds me that I still have a lot of things I need to work on but that I'm also perfect the way I am, you're just too blind to see that. It helps me when I'm feeling down and it lifts my spirits.
Here's my cover of Gabrielle Aplin's song Mountains.

weh
What should be my reality:
Okay, I have to perform at open mic night tomorrow so I need to get my act together. Time to just listen to the songs I need to sing there (since I still don't even know all the words by heart yet). Oh and also you should probably practice your guitar, since you are playing at least one of the four songs by yourself. All of this is very needed at the moment since you do feel like you're going to puke from nerves and actually doing all of this might actually calm you down and oh you know... make you actually prepared for tomorrow night so you're not going to ditch out on this plan at the last minute due to nerves.
My actual reality:
Lets listen to some new random songs I just found on youtube and refresh facebook like there's no tomorrow....
Good god what the hell have I gotten myself into?
I'm going to be sick from all the nerves
