As of today, July 12th: some things I like, and some things I don't like.

I like: 

- breakthroughs 

- cool dreams with a plot 

- getting my aura photographed & read right next to Tavi Gevinson 

- finally getting back into reading via Patti Smith’s Just Kids 

- Friday night uke sessions 

- sports bras 

- going through memory walks in my mind 

- back to the summers in middle school, high school, freshman year of college. 

- crossing the bridge by car at sunset rom Greenpoint into LIC. 

 - short hair on all girls 

- long hair on me 

- going home 

- deep chats with strangers 

- when the remix is better than the original 

 I don’t like: 

 - how prickly & defensive I get when i receive criticism 

- feeling like a slob most days 

- FOMO about sex 

- overhearing someone getting yelled at 

- when I hang a friend for the first time in a while, and its draining instead of energizing 

- hanging out with terrible couples 

- how I can’t stop myself from oversharing, and being way too honest with people 

- wtf is happening to my skin right now 

- how gifs take 5 minutes to load on my internet connection 

That last one’s a real killer.
