Teenage Diary just isn’t as active as my other collective, The Wandering! But if you want to contribute regular writing or diaries to The Wandering, email me at stylewandering@gmail.com and I can give you some details :)
Anonymous asked: what can I do to become a diarist?
unfortunately i’m not continuing the weekly diarist thing :(
Anonymous asked: I need to know where to get cute journals from, you have any suggestions? Thanks xo
If you are looking to purchase cool journals, I would recommend Etsy.com
But the best journals are always handmade. Collaged covers are great, and you can go to the fabric store and purchase pretty fabrics to use for covers.

I liked your personality, your stories.
Your hazel eyes. Your laugh.
You liked her long brown hair
and her bright white smile…
So I sat alone most of the time waiting for you.
SPOILER ALERT: you didn’t come back.

Age:17I always drew paralells between the relationship between Angelina Jolie and Winona Ryder in Girl Interrupted and my relationship with my also blonde and attractive ex. I was winona, so this being said I kind of had to move away from the toxicity that permeated our relationship and this collage is a reflection of that.Tumblr: mysticmistake.tumblr.com

liquid-hydrogen asked: I'm doing my art and design project on teenage culture and i'm doing it in the form of a visual diary, you got any ideas as where i should go with it? thanks :)
Sounds cool! I don’t want to tell you what to do for your project, but I’d say definitely try to encompass all aspects of teendom. Love, loss, depression, first experiences, etc.

Everything feels weird at the moment.
Today our english teacher never turned up for the lesson and most of the class were away on a school trip, so the remaining ten or so of us huddled up on a desk and spent the lesson singing Busted, trying on hats and wigs which the teacher has for some reason, reading poetry in different accents and discussing everyone who was away. Last year I barely knew a good half of my class and was friendly with about four people. This year is so different; there isn’t a single person in my teaching group who I don’t get on with and we have in jokes with different teachers and sometimes someone starts singing Hey There Delilah or Year 3000 and literally everyone joins in and it’s the coolest thing ever. I’m so much happier in most of my classes then I could have ever wished last year. Most of the teachers don’t hate me that much and pretend not to notice when people are on the phone booking concert tickets or chewing bubblegum or whatever.
Most of my friends are on a History trip to Belgium. On the day they were leaving at 6am I got up at 5am to go and say goodbye because I couldn’t sleep that night. I’ve got into a routine of getting into school, walking to different form rooms at different times in the morning to see particular people at particular times and then talking in the corridors with other people then walking to the canteen with a couple of friends to get a drink, then sprinting back to my form room for registration. I nearly always have someone to talk to, which is insane considering two years ago I literally didn’t have a single friend. So this part week it’s been lonely again and I can’t wait for monday and suffocating everyone with hugs.
I’ve also learnt that buying hair dye on ebay after eleven cups of coffee is never a good idea, and as a result my hair is a very cool and very unintentional mixture of orange, bright yellow, white and brown. I got the usual round of abuse from twats in my form (that is my form, not my teaching group) but I sort of like it. I’ve been dying my hair red/brown since year three and I’ve been pretty sick of it.
Tomorrow I’m working at the Salvation Army and this weekend I need to somehow learn like 20 minutes of French text off by heart which is such a joke and I’m putting it off as usual.
A lot has happened in these past weeks. Last week was my spring break and I got a lot done but not enough. Never enough. My friend Erica and I started an etsy which will open around May. I love cruising with Erica looking for supplies. I have been steadily working on pieces since then. It feels great to be doing something creative. I go in out of being artistic and having no inspiration. I’ve always drawn since I was young, it comes naturally but I am resistant to call myself an artistic. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because of the criticism it brings once you label yourself something. I’ve also been steadily working on issue 2 of Tom Girl. So much to do, no time.
This spring semester has been fine so far but now it’s crunch time. I just finished one project and now unto another. My classes this semester are pretty interesting (Psych/Environmental/German II) except for Economics, there’s just a lot of work. I can’t wait till summer so I can watch independent films and draw, paint, and make things all day. Well that will only happen sometimes I suppose.
