You know what's kind of beautiful?
timorleste:
In French, you don’t really say, “I miss you.”
You say, “Tu me manques,” which is closer to, “You are missing from me.”
I love that. “You are missing from me.” You are a part of me, you are essential to my being. You are like a limb or an organ, or blood. I cannot function, without you.
another one of my favorites is saudade. (taught to me by the wonderful Sylvia)

I had a nightmare last night.
Odd thing about it was that it started off as a normal dream, and didn’t become terrifying until just right before I woke up.
The dream was of me and Ryan going about a relatively normal day. We drove around and saw friends. But on the way home, we were on this windy cliff at night. It was extremely hard to see. We’re just having a fun conversation when out of nowhere a car driving...

quidkidconfessions:
There are virtually zero good teams in the Western Region. UCLA is just passable, and USC’s okay, but only because they have Mitch Cavender.
someone has to yell ISOSPARTA from the sidelines ;)
Totally not quidcest
quidkidconfessions:
I’m a Quidgirl dating a Quidboy and it’s awesome! But I hate the term “Quidcest.” It makes it sound so wrong. What’s bad about dating someone with similar lifestyle, interests, and quirky sense of humor?
Yeah, I started dating my boyfriend long before we joined the quidditch team and became captains together.
I don’t really consider it quidcest, either.

I’m going to be completely honest when I say I actually really enjoy the scars on my legs (or anywhere else, for that matter), when I have them (most are from quidditch, naturally).
Because screw being dainty. I’m not afraid to put myself out there, and every one is proof of that. Every scar tells a story.
I don’t want my life to go unblemished.
My Quidditch Life: My Thoughts on Gender Equality... →
myquidditchlife:
I’ve been seeing a lot of complaints lately about Quidditch not being inclusive enough for female players. The scope of the complaints is rather broad, ranging from the ratio not being exact enough to female players not receiving recognition. However, the root of all these complaints is…
I agree, Alan.
Well said.

seenewperspectives replied to your post: so much art to do
haha awwww. You can do mine last and give it to me when school starts/during school :) But I understand too! Between friends, working out, sleep and other stuff, I just don’t have time to draw :(

so much art to do
and so little time.
between working and working out, I feel like I don’t have as much time for art as I’d like :(
And my weekends so far have been totally consumed by trips and friends (which I’m not complaining about at all—it just means I can’t get much done art-wise.)

nominations for best hugger
quadorable:
Okay so there are a few.
August, USC. You always feel loved when you’re in his arms.
Tom Marks, UCLA. Dude, its Tom Marks. You know how it is.
Chris Sauro, Skrewts. Giant teddy bear who gives the warmest hugs.
Donovan McNiff, Cal. This kid is as amazing a hugger as he is a seeker. When him and August hug…oh man, there are fireworks in the air from the sheer awesomeness.

Hey quidditch people,
One of my favorite people got nominated to represent Team USA this summer.
Please help support August Lührs. Its been an honor having him on my team, and I know he’s the perfect addition to Team ÜSA.
Buy his jersey, or make any kind of donation :) You’d be the biggest help if you did.
Thank you.
PS Here’s his facebook event, if you’re interested.

When I see kids, I try to imagine in my head what they’d look like when they’re older.
And then I go back to admiring their spirit and innocence and cuteness.
heydubaigirl replied to your photo: I just felt my heart break… Mondays were supposed…
oh no! Are you going to have to go all the way to HSC THAT EARLY ON A MONDAY?!
Yeah :( And not just Mondays…Wednesdays and Thursdays start at the same time, also on HSC.
I’m going to be so tired next semester.

my heart wasn’t made for the fourth quarter
the mortar wasn’t made for suspense
it runs down my sides in sweat rivulets

staring into the eclipse-
if you promise to not thank me for
thinking about you
i promise to tell my lungs little white lies
so they won’t heave so very hard
who am i and

Still less weird than breasts. Those must get in the way a hell of a lot, like in sports.

Story Time
So on my walk back from a long day of work, an elderly Asian woman comes up to me and asks me for directions. She said she was given a parking citation, and that the ticket told her to go to the USC Transportation office if she wanted to get it sorted out. She said that she used to go to USC in 1975, and things have greatly changed since, and she’d been walking around in the heat with no...
Just another day in LA
Me: (driving with Ryan and Spencer in the car) Woah, police! They're blocking the entire intersection. We're stuck here until they're done.
Ryan: what's going on?
Me: Oh my god there's a helicopter with a spotlight pointed right in front of us.
Ryan: Does that policeman have a gun? HE HAS A GUN POINTED AT SOMETHING.
Ryan: Nicté, why are you moving the car closer?!
Me: I WANNA SEE
