the importance of doing stupid things.

at the end of the day, after being a productive nerd all day long, home is where i tear those labels people gave me off.

when has "productivity" become a measure for us to choose to do something or not?

you should do your homework, go to the gym, sleep 6 hours a day so you can be productive.

you shouldn't lay down on your bed and sleep until noon since it's not productive.

here we are, in the generation flooded with "how to be successful", "how to be influence people" and inspirational videos all over the place.

we watch them and criticize ourselves for not being "pRoDuCtIvE". we actually made plans, but we just... don't follow them till the end anyways.

but have we ever asked ourselves why are we doing those things anyways?

we haven't, we truly haven't.

being productive feels good, i'm not gonna lie, but i'll die being hard-working forever.

at some point in your day, fuck things and do what you love, even when it's stupid.


there're things i do that make me feel like i'm the lord of my life, hella free and independent, ain't need anyone to complete me.

call me weird, i won't care at all, i'll keep singing every french songs i'd listened to because i know i love them so much.

i'll probably sleep naked (which i haven't) if i were to live alone in the future.

living alone can be lonely at times, but imagine the freedom you have when nobody's around to stare and judge you.

i'll get up early, or late, or whenever i feel like in the morning, not to flex people on social media, ain't to impress anyone i have a crush on. i'll take a walk, not to lose weight, but because i love the smell of the soil after rain, my heart beats faster when the chorus comes on my favorite running track.

self, don't even fall in love with boys unless you want to, fall in love with life!

keep romanticizing the dust until dawn, the aurora and the sunset, the fleeting youth you're living in, days of adolescent and learning.

being young is amazing, don't ever waste it.

staying young ain't about counting wrinkles at the corner of your eyes or your lips, it's about staying mentally young. you don't need to be 30 to be "old", you can be 18 and feel like you're dying and having immense chronic back pain by having an old soul. attitude is everything, choose kind over benefits.


why born an anomaly, died trying to fit the trend?
