I edited a few moomin lockscreens for the folks of tumblr.
To Live - Yu Hua
Quotes that I really liked and felt the need to underline:
"All it took was a word from the higher-ups and we'd all think and do whatever they wanted."
"You still owe us a life, hold on to your life to repay us."
"No matter how lucky a person is, the moment he decides he wants to die, there's nothing that will keep him alive."
"No matter how many hardships and difficulties people face in life, they always find a way to console themselves when they get close to death."
"If you go on striving for this and that, you’ll end up paying with your life."
"I thought it must be terrible to be an ox. All their lives they're driven to the point of exhaustion for the work of man, and as soon as they get old and their energy starts to go they get sent off to be slaughteted and eaten."
"My memories of Fengxia are my only happiness."
I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've serched the universe
And found myself
Within' her eyes
-Guns N' Roses - This I love
I miss holding my laugh during class
Not a specific time period but I like learning about wars throughout history.
The first person that comes to my mind is the little prince lol. I read its book at least once every year and it feels different each time.
A fresh brew.
Libraries.
The (500) Days of Summer soundtrack, it's lovely.
A cottage on the top of a mountain with an old, huge, and shady tree right beside it OR a mansion that I design myself and it has a huge garden and an art studio in the backyard.
Talking with my friend and sleeping.
Films: About Time, Her, Midnight in Paris. Books: Fesleğen by Hikmet Anıl Öztekin, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
No.
I haven't read much, I will update this later in my life.
Not sure.
I dont like either.
Not sure, all my life I have lived in placed with only 1 or 2 seasons.
I think I should be reading more poetry, I like it but I dont have a strong opinion on it at the moment.
Texting; no, emails; depends on who I am emailing.
I only put 50 songs in each playlist as I discover them, when there is 50 songs in a playlist, I create another one. Sometimes it takes months to reach 50, and sometimes only a couple of weeks. When I listen to my old playlist I can see how ı was back then.
Khaled Hosseini and Dan Brown.
Hot chocolate.
Meadows, I guess.
Mulberry.

حلم
Holm, song by Emel
If I could close my eyes,
And the dreams take me by the hand,
I would rise and fly in a new sky,
and I would forget my sorrows.
If I could travel in my imagination,
I would build palaces and nights,
where love and my hopes can grow, and we could erase the pain...
A world, in which you see people, whose features
are clouded by oppression, misery, and suffering,
from a bitter reality that destroys everything we build.
A world where you see rising walls of tyranny,
That crushes in our dreams and dreams
And reign darkness and greed in all hearts.
Honestly? Fuck this culture of shaming people for learning about things late and liking them. who gives a shit if you discovered a song from years ago and youre in love with the band? Catch up with series you just discovered and talk about them to your friends, fall in love with movies others have known way before you even heard of them, read books youd heard of long ago but never got interested in until now and become a huge fan!! This idea that people are “fake fans” for not knowing about or being interested in things before and loving them now is garbage and we need to get rid of it. Just let people enjoy things jfc!!
