I love taking a good nature walk. Back in high school I had to wait upwards of 3 hours for my dad to come and pick me up (come late junior and senior year they told me to just take the bus home), I made it a bit of a habit of walking along the backyard of my school, it was this huge grassy space with trees and a river further back. Thinking of it now, it wasnāt very big, but man the self reflection I did there was crazy.
Now I frequent downtown a lot because of school, so I just walk around getting lost, occasionally going to the parks nearby and just sitting and thinking.

if I didnāt have an 8-5, I worry that it would be closer to 3. I live by a trail that, during the summer is swampy and smelly, but is blooming and verdant right now. I spend my journeys alternating between my āitās 7am and youāre thinking about poppersā playlist and calling up family and friends to chat. highly recommend!

Most days i walk home from my boyfriends place thatās about 23 minutes from mine. I love having a set time to wake my brain up and reflect. Sometimes (today) I meet little street cats as well.

Peach Pitās sophomore album āYou and Your Friendsā is such a perfect album. No skips at all, all the songs are so catchy and beautiful. My favorite tracks on it have to be Puppy Grin, Brianās Movie, and Shampoo Bottles. I feel like a lot of the songs on it are very nostalgic? Itās hard to explain, theyāre all about past relationships, platonic and romantic (probably where the album name comes from). Itās very easy to attach songs to experiences youāve lived.
I think the song Iāve most resonated with is Puppy Grin, just the fact itās about hopelessly devoting yourself to someone thatās not even yours to begin with.
Very easy to listen to, hope to get the vinyl soon, canāt wait to see Peach Pit this summer!!

Was thinking about the past and whatnot, reminiscing on senior year. It hasnāt even been a year since I graduated, yet it feels very far away already. Itās probably because Iāve settled into thinking of college and high school is not at the forefront of my mind anymore. Itās just crazy to think that Iām barely starting my spring semester of freshman year, when I had gotten so used to being a senior. Such is life, the cycle repeats.
Picture is from senior sunrise, old tradition where the seniors go to the beach dressed in all white and watch the sun go up. Doesnāt have much use other than getting good pictures for the yearbook and Instagram lol, but was still a nice time. I think senior year was only tolerable because of my friends, I really owe it all to them. We got breakfast after and showed up an hour ish late to school, good times.

Remembering when I visited an old friend in Indiana last summer and they took me to this quarry, I was asleep on the ride there so Iāll never know where it is, it remains a mystifying memory. A moment suspended in time. Even as someone very afraid of both water and heights, being at the very top was so breathtaking (in a good way).
Apparently the Empire State Building is constructed entirely with limestone from Indiana.
