Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that I’m still alive. I haven’t even logged into this account in months and was only going to check my inbox, but I’d forgotten that I had so many followers so I thought I’d just check in.

So much has changed for me in the 4(!!) years since I started this blog, and even more has happened in the year since I stopped posting (all good things, fortunately). I still love this community but I can’t foresee myself using this blog again. I’m going to keep it here in case I change my mind, but no worries if you want to unfollow :)

I’ve always been pretty anonymous here but I’m not really worried about that any more. If anyone’s interested in keeping up with what I’m doing (I’ve just started a career in social media and freelance writing) then feel free to follow me on Twitter. <3

I AM SO BUSY
I have never had this much to do in my life (and it’s all very intense and intimidating and interesting and exciting), which is why I haven’t been blogging at all recently.
To be honest, it’s been quite nice not to have to worry about keeping this blog updated.

I love this community, but I’m going to have to take a step back for a little while to live my life and make sure that I can get the best grade possible in my masters degree.

I’d love to keep up with you guys though. If we’ve spoken before and/or are mutual followers, feel free to drop me a message if you want to know my twitter username so that we can follow each other :)

Miss you all, I hope you’re all doing okay. I’m sure I won’t stay away from here for too long. xo

Hey cuties!
I’m just about to start a new university course (to get a Masters degree, holy crap!) which means that I’m going to take a little bit of a break from blogging here. I’ll still be around occasionally, but I don’t want to get back into the habit of obsessively topping up my queue, because I really need to concentrate on university and don’t want to be distracted.
I miss you guys! And if any of you want to get in contact just drop me a message and I promise I’ll reply eventually, it just won’t be as promptly as usual.
I’m in a really good place right now, and feeling incredibly fortunate at the direction my life is taking. How are you guys?

can we start a movement that accepts the reality that weightlifting CAN, in fact, make women bulky, BUT THAT BEING BULKY IS NOT A BAD THING. so what? let’s stop being afraid of being bulky.

romanovastiel:

Treat yourself the way you treat your favorite characters. Look into your back-story to understand your current plot. Sympathize with yourself. Recognize your flaws, and appreciate your strengths. Defend yourself. Cheer yourself on when you go into battle. Appreciate every relationship you make and always look for hidden potential. You’re the protagonist in your story. You’re the main character. You’re the hero.

Treat yourself like one.

deviantfemme:

I want support for ugly girls and lazy girls and girls that can’t ever get their eyeliner right. I want feminism that includes girls who are too big or too black to be on body positive blogs. 

I want girls with acne scars and girls who don’t “pass” and girls with facial hair. I want girls who are, in fact, man hating lesbians. I want poor girls.

I need the girls who never took a course in gender studies but who still know the way that society treats them is bullshit. 

It doesn’t feel like a revolution when we’re only showing more of the same, when we only raise up the voices of some women.

I need to do better. We all need to do better.
