About your dog(s):

Interests: Books, movies, running, the internet!, dogs of course, poetry, quotes, tv shows (mostly BBC shows that inevitably get canceled), nature documentaries
Mostly books. I will find a subject I love and read EVERYTHING all at once like a crazy person. I love reading
Favorite music: Anything that makes me feel something/goes with my mood. I love classical..I also hold a special spot in my heart for movie scores (the how to train your dragon & lady in the water film scores are my personal favorites)
I also love cheesy pop music. Taylor swift, owl city, bowling for soup, etc...
my ipod is a mishmash of basically everything. I love spotify!
Favorite book: complicated question lol
Favorite nostalgia close to my heart forever books? The harry potter series, naturally. I read them as a child and they were my gateway drug into my love of reading
Also, his dark materials (northern lights, amber spyglass, subtle knife)
and the giver! one of the most under appreciated young adult books IMO read it when I was younger and HATED IT. Re-read it as an adult and absolutely adored it.

- Pride and Prejudice
- Survivor (Chuck P.)
-The book thief
Favorite quote:
" The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.
For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that gets you. -" Neil deGrasse Tyson
Everyone who terrifies you is sixty-five percent water.
And everyone you love is made of stardust, and I know sometimes
you cannot even breathe deeply, and
the night sky is no home, and
you have cried yourself to sleep enough times
that you are down to your last two percent, but
nothing is infinite,
not even loss.
You are made of the sea and the stars, and one day
you are going to find yourself again.
“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.â€
Roald Dahl
Random fact: I cry every time I finish a novel. Even happy books, even sad books, even books I didn't really love.. the ending of it all just gets to me. You kind of immerse yourself in this world for a while and meet all these people and experience all these things and once it's over I just can't handle it lol so I usually cry.
me in paris.
and london
and back home w/Merlin
