UNINSPIRED.

"Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are easy."

I've been feeling so lost lately. Stuck in a world of do-gooders and bores. In a place where everyone knows what they want, but I know nothing at all. I'm not sure if the path I'm on is right, or if I took a wrong turn somewhere along the way. My parents always wanted me to be successful...but what if I'm not? I'm stuck in an average kind of hell, stuck just beneath the water, out of reach from the future.

Where the hell did time go? What happened to sleepovers with friends and staying up all night sober and sharing secrets?

When did isolation become normal, and losing friends become okay, and nights alone become sad?

What happened.

Young and sweet only seventeen

"Youth is wasted on the young."

- Oscar Wilde 

Most people say that life gets better after school ends.

And it does, for most.

But why is it that at just seventeen we are supposed to make, essentially, the most important decisions of our lives?

We’re supposed to know where we’re going in life, what we want to do, where we want to live, how we want to live.

All before actually becoming an adult.

I remember finishing year 12 and being so excited for the future, but now, at (almost) 21, I don’t see how any future I imagined at seventeen could match the future I see now.

We need to travel, to work, to experience life before life happens. 

Why are we so focussed on kids making life choices, and why are we so oblivious to the fact that it’s okay for them not to have any friggen clue about anything.

Leave them alone.

The younger generations are always useless, anyway.

(Kidding.)

WANDERLUST

"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

- J.R.R Tolkein 

We dream of places we’ve never been. We long for people we’ve never met. We crave the feel of a different ground beneath the same sun. When we have sun, we want snow. When we have rain, we want the sun. We spend the night hours dreading the morning, and the morning hours longing the night.

When we feel lost, we travel. And when we travel, we often feel lost.

Why do we always want to be somewhere we aren’t?

Is it because we are unhappy with the way things are? With the life we have? What is it about the unknown that makes it so exciting?

Wanderlust, it’s a bloody confusing thing.

Twin power or just double trouble?

Annnnd for today’s second blog I wanted to do an inspiration post. This one is dedicated to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, whom I love.

Loved them when they were little, didn’t really love them when they dressed like hobos, love them now.

Even though they've been labelled as fashion victims and hopeless dressers, they were named women’s wear designers of the year 2012 and have recently launched their spring/summer collection. Must be doing something right, right?

With 14 films, 4 TV shows, a fashion line and even a stint at singing under their belts (anyone else remember that?) safe to say these beautiful, primal-faced twins have made it big time in the biz.

Side: Mary-Kate is dating 43-year-old Frenchie Oliver Sarkozy (apparently). Ashley is dating JOHNNY DEPP!? This is all heresay, I take no responsibility!

Here’s a look at MK&A through the years:

I know not everyone will like this post, but I happen think they're fashionable and chic. And have done pretty damn good for two girls growing up with the public watching their every move. Kudos.
