I took a nap,
and now I’m ready. I’m ready to be a grown-ass-working woman this summer, I’m ready to be a tourist in Italy, and I’m ready to be a high school graduate. Thank god, because it would suck if I wasn’t.

things i'm thinking about on this lovely summerish...
-my distant future (ie: college)
-my immediate future (ie: graduation)
-Italia
-where hunting park avenue begins/ends. I like it when I’m at a 3 way intersection, and a street is beginning or ending.
-being awkward and feeling awkward.
-the pronunciation of goethe
-poetry, and how i should write some.

littlegermantownbee:
I do not love you as if you were the salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off. I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers; thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance, risen from the earth, lives...
