Don't wear makeup

WHY IT’S STUPID TO WEAR MAKEUP
1) If you decide to go swimming, playing in the rain, or somehow getting wet, you’re screwed; and who wants to lose their spontaneity by keeping their faces dry
2) Do makeup wearers just not rub their eyes?
3) Don’t cry
4) Ten minutes of applying could have been spent writing. Running. Playing piano. Leaving the house on time. Tumblr. School work. Dragon slaying. Showering.
5) It’s not even healthy?
6) I mean putting paint with strange chemicals on your eyelashes probably doesn’t make them grow longer over time
8) Wait why do you want to look different than your natural appearance?
9) FALSE ADVERTISING
10) If you’re trying to cover acne or something, it’s only going to give you more
11) I mean think about it, your pores are going to suck anything on your skin into your skin including sweat, dirt, dead skin cells, and makeup
12) It’s going to cost you like six dollars for cheap lipstick, five dollars for mascara, and at least ten dollars for foundation
13) And then you just wash it off when you get home
14) And if you don’t that’s gross
15) If it’s expected for a girl to wear makeup, this is where you say HECK NO I AIN’T WEARING MAKEUP
16) Who wants to conform to society?
17) Guys don’t wear makeup so why do girls have to
18) It makes a mess and smells weird
19) Do you need anymore reasons?

20) No you don’t

how to be a poet

Being a poet
Is not that hard
All you have to do
Is press enter a lot
That makes it okay
That it doesn't even rhyme
Write about moons and stars
And somehow vaguely compare it to love
My love for you is like
All the stars in the sky
Shining brightly on the dark blue canvas
And something about forgetting the world
Don't forget the heart beats
Heartbeats are essential for poetry
Tears
But darling
Gosh darnit this is so inspiring
Try it out
I think it's foolproof

the horrors of youth

I am so sick of seeing teenagers that think all they need to be happy is a boyfriend or girlfriend. If they could just find someone that loves them, they can finally feel beautiful and confident.
No. False. Happiness does not depend on when you find your soul mate. Your life does not build up to the point of being loved, and having a lover won’t boost you self worth or solve any problems. Be confident in your brilliance, know that you’re a beautiful person in and of yourself, and no one else can change that.
Enjoy your freaking life. Live it because you were intended to live it and no one else was. Don’t give anyone else the opportunity to have an opinion over you. Don’t let anyone love you for the sake of being loved. Don’t let yourself love anyone for the sake of loving. No one can save you, no one can make you, no one can break you, no one can tear you down, no one can build you up, only you can let those things happen to you.

1) Doesn’t matter what the story is. Doesn’t matter what the plot is. Somehow there will be a love interest and somehow it will dominate everything else and get in the way
