Anonymous: Did you cut your hair short?? It looks nice! :o
No no, I just have it tied in the ultimate slobby ~side pony~ with a tied up stocking (I am the definition of glam).

I just sent a message to the guy I was involved with telling him it’s over. I feel sort of sad, even though I know I should be rejoicing because he quite often made me feel bad about myself, and I was never even sure what he meant to me. I think I feel sort of sad today anyway - nauseous, deflated and tired.

I just made such a nice meal - I love being able to cook well, it’s such a good life skill and I love cooking for all the people I love. Whenever someone comes over I just want to make them a really nice, healthy meal and stuff them full of good food and smoothies and happiness.

I had such a lovely evening with two of my favourite people ever, and we ate great food and then I was walking to the bus stop with my best ever pal and we were talking about how great it was that we were friends, being two of the best people to walk the planet, and ah - it’s just great, she gets me. We have the same very odd sense of humour, and she’s just my number 1 really. I feel happy and confident and I certainly don’t need this shifty, angry guy I am no longer seeing to make me feel good about myself or validate my existence and so even if I wake up tomorrow feeling horrible, this evening was perfect, and my friends are perfect.

I want to weep - my friend and her boyfriend keep using the word “paki” and then excusing themselves because they’re not using it in a racist context, but I tried to explain that they’re still using it as an insult, thus implying that there is something inherently wrong in being of Pakistani origin. And then they use the “yeah, but a paki is just someone from Pakistan”, I sort of just want to look at them and say “Yes - yes because that’s the way you’re using it. Because every time you look at someone with brown skin and call them a paki, you can be of absolute certainty that they were all born in Pakistan, not that most of them are probably from England or other countries, and even if they were, what would be the problem? Just stop using it, stop making a casual joke out of racism. Stop acting like it’s funny to use words that are oppressive and cruel and dehumanising Just stop! I think the same about other words too, and I feel like this massive, pretentious wanker even telling them to stop because it doesn’t effect me personally, but I don’t think that’s a reason not to tell people to stop being fucking racist and disgusting.
