amber. 23. massachusetts.

i've been living with chronic major depression for almost 14 years, and i post pretty openly about it, just giving you fair warning.

writer. esl teacher. amateur pastry chef. jewelry maker. artist. marxist. girl-dandy. cinema addict. philologist. in love. just trying to keep my head up.

i'm generally a nice person and i try to be as positive as i can. the only thing i'm really intolerant of is intolerance.

i basically survive off of ativan, espresso, bourbon, and green tea, and i think eating and sleeping are highly overrated.

i enjoy eyeliner moustaches, baking cookies shaped like ninjas, oscar wilde-esque dandyism, jewfros, watching turner classic movies while heavily intoxicated, socialism, linguistics, jack nicholson's facial expressions, dressing up in ridiculous costumes for no reason whatsoever, boston, and road-tripping.

i just do what i do and enjoy the ride i'm on.

The Great Conversation

bestofwikipedia:

The Great Conversation is a reference to what many Catholic apologists believe happens in purgatory. In effect, people in purgatory are to naturally converse with each other in an effort to determine where they are and how they got there. Think of a big social gathering in which every participant has, almost invariably, the exact same questions on his or her mind. (via valdean)

well, if that’s purgatory, then i’d rather be there than heaven. at least people in purgatory know how to enjoy a good philosophical discussion.

i don’t believe in an afterlife, so the point is moot, but still.
