I just wanted you all to know I feel good about myself today
I call this look Haruka Kent


This post is mostly just to say I’m alive (very low in sleep but not hungover!)
I thought this shirt was more like the ones the myu cast has, but oh well. If any of you are at nycc, feel free to say hi if you see me.
my boss: So how’s life? Any boyfriends? (then, less seriously) Any girlfriends?
me: well, girlfriends would be more likely.
my boss: *laughs as though I have made a joke*
me: …

me, before my first day of work: ahhh I need to wear feminine clothes or I won’t look professional. and make up. should I wear a skirt??? heels???
me, four days later: never fear, the butch is here to trouble shoot your e-reader.

I am. much blonder than planned. whoops.
I decided to show how blonde I am now.

SO BLONDE.
Cut because of sappiness.
Last night I went to see Fun Home again. I had it in mind as my last irresponsible act as a 21 year old, but it was only as I headed home after that I realized it was the neatest end I could have given my 21st year.
21 was big for a lot of reasons (I graduated, for one), but for me the biggest thing was figuring out who I am. I think a lot of my family and friends think this year was just when I came out of the closet to them. Truthfully, this is the year I broke through everything and admitted to myself that I’m actually, truly, 100% gay.
And so seeing Fun Home again last night, even though there’s a much bigger story than just Allison’s sexuality, it felt like I saw my own triumphs there on stage, and it felt poetic that it was the last thing I did in that year of my life.
Bringing in 22, I hope that this year has even bigger things in store.
And I hope that wearing this shirt with one of my favorite lines from Fun Home proves to be just as poetic as seeing it last night was.

I haven’t shown my face on my blog since a while before I died my hair, so have a cautiously-optimistic-about-this-job businesswear selfie.


It’s rainy and my coffee maker broke, so I’m cheering myself up with two of the best blondes, who coincidentally are from two of my best friends.
I was tagged for the 6 selfies of 2014 by through-the-wardrobe Thank you!
I always think I don’t take many selfies… but I’ve gotten in the habit of sending one of my friends outfit and mood pics, so I actually do have a lot 😛
I tag… anyone who wants to do it? I don’t want to tag anyone uncomfortable with it, but if you’ll have fun, go for it and say I tagged you!
