A Long Time Ago An Anon Asked My Thoughts About Drawing Backgrounds, So I Finally Got Around To Putting

PLEASE BE CAREFUL FOR ANYONE WHO USES “BLUEBUFFALO” FOR THEIR DOGS!!

My school has decided we can’t bring backpacks to HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES. WHERE YOU NEED TEXTBOOKS AND LARGE PROJECTS. we only get 5 minutes in between classes and most students classes are across campus. The school is scared that someone will have a weapon in their backpack but during most school shootings backpacks with heavy books and other items have saved lives. My friend emailed our principle a very strongly worded letter and he has his heart set on it. Reblog if you disagree and me and my friend will write down everyone who does, and give it to him. Thank you!

about periods

they’re the worst

make sure you have Comfy Clothes

heat packs/hot water bottles? absolute essentials

if you don’t have them, lying on ur stomach helps LOADS

if you’re feeling nauseous, the smell of peppermint eases the nausea. no one likes throwing up. if you don’t have an aroma diffuser, drip a few drops of peppermint oil into a cup of water, smell it if you feel like puking

chocolate !!! especially dark chocolate

hot drinks, like soup,,,,, or tea !!! hot tea is so nice during periods, and it has health benefits !!

ice cream is nice but not great for periods :( TEA IS GOOD !!!!!!

this list goes out to anyone who doesn’t have periods as well. if u know someone who has periods, know that cramps are bitches. help them out.

sometimes the nausea gets really bad, but ALWAYS REMEMBER TO EAT REFULAR MEALS. when u wanna puke eating is hard, i understand sweetie but even a snack. not eating makes the nausea worse.

if the cramps get real bad, remember to BREATHE. unclench your jaw, loosen your shoulders and neck, breathe in for 4 seconds, out for 5. repeat.

if there’s someone to rub ur back or play with your hair, ask them to !!

seriously, it feels better

periods are like small demon babies that bloat your stomach for five days and make u feel icky, you deserve someone to rub ur back for ten fucking minutes goddammit

keep hydrating. water, tea, whatevs. but hydrate.

pee regularly, change your pad/tampon regularly. REMEMBER THIS. set reminders if you need to.

play some chill music, watch a sitcom

REMEMBER THE HOT WATER BOTTLE. THAT SHIT IS A LIFESAVER

i’m lying on my stomach as i type this now and i feel the sweet warmth blossoming in my sad bloated stomach where the bad gremlin period baby is hiding

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

THIS GOES OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DONT’T HAVE PERIODS

seriously please help us we are but sad uterus-bearing souls haunted by stupid blood babies

please

good luck ladies ily all

oh yea if you sleep a certain way (on your stomach, on your side, etc) make sure to adjust your pad so that you won’t leak

borax is good for cleaning period stains

If you paladin rolls a natural one when smiting evil, instead of being smoten, evil is smitten. Now they wander around with a blushing demon bashfully writing poetry about them constantly

Writing Tip

Change paragraphs when:

- A new person is speaking

- A new idea is introduced

- A new character comes along

- A new event happens

- The setting is changed

- The “camera” moves

- Time moves forward or backward a lot

Not to be a downer but if i had to, at 12 years old, listen to my mother tell me all the different ways men would want to hurt my body, and how i might prevent that, then i really feel like teenage boys can handle a conversation with their parents that starts “let’s talk about consent”

After two long nights, it’s finally finished

I’m not an expert but I like hands a lot so hopefully some of this was helpful!
