// NO BALL //

You burn through my mind,
again and again, again, again

hi hello wassup,


Update: I just bought tickets to Bombay Bicycle Club #helltotheyeah
Their concert is actually on the same day as the Architecture ball. However, me and Zoe decided to go to their concert instead SORRY NOT SORRY.

(I'm very happy with this decision)
To be honest I'd rather go to a concert and (maybs somewhere after idk) instead of having to worry about getting a formal dress and thinking about hair/makeup as well as paying $85 for ball tickets. Also I can just go next year! Also planning outfits (especially for formal events) stresses me out. Social anxiety/10. 
AND ALSO CONCERTS JUST MAKE ME SO HAPPY :')

On a more serious note,
I'm so happy all the celebrities have been promoting ALS and spreading awareness. However, I think it's gotten to the point where some people might not actually know what this 'Ice Bucket Challenge' is even sponsoring. My mum actually explained to me what the disease does to the body and it's really overwhelming just thinking about the symptoms that patients must go through.

The disease is called 'Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis' (ALS). The reason for the ice bucket challenge is due to the fact that patients lose feeling and mobility in their bodies inch by inch. Their body literally freezes up and they are unable to move. The horror is actually knowing that within a few years you will be dead. You slowly lose feeling in all your limbs/body parts until eventually you cannot swallow or breathe. There is no cure.

I'm sorry that post got dark really fast but I wanted to just raise awareness about the actual cause. 

Anyways I think this is my cue to leave.

peace owt
