On playing dress-up.
Dear Coquette,
I’m interested in so many fields. From bartending to chemical engineering and journalism and law. I get that no one cares about your degree, but since these areas do all kind of require some kind of credentials, how should I prepare for them?
Sincerely,
An Enthusiastic High School Junior
You don’t want to be a bartender. You want to be a hipster mixologist...
Has it ever happened to you?
When you are in a situation where you are seriously distracted from your trivial life, and you don’t really know a solution for your issues.
When in doubt, I always ask myself three important questions:
1. Is what I am thinking about going to matter in 1 year?
2. What are my priorities?
3. What would my father do?
And there I go, the solution to all the...

Hands Down
Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep, this air is blessed, you share with me.
This night is wild, so calm and dull, these hearts they race, from self control.
Your legs are smooth, as they graze mine, we’re doing fine, we’re doing nothing at all.
My hopes are so high, that your kiss might kill me.
So won’t you kill me, so I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,...

Nếu có người yêu bạn đến mức dù bạn làm đau người ấy đến một ngàn lần, người ấy vẫn chấp nhận ở bên bạn, hiểu bạn, chăm sóc cho bạn, hãy trân trọng người ta.
Nếu bạn không nhìn thấy tương lai với người ấy, hãy để người ấy đi tìm một tình yêu đẹp và ít đau đớn hơn.
Nếu bạn thấy có thể, dù chỉ trong một chớp nhoáng thôi, cảm thấy mình có thể nuôi lớn và đáp trả tình yêu của người ấy, hãy cho người...
At this time of the night, I just feel a rush of blood to my head.
I get so tired of reading all the sociological shit that I start to think of random things to lighten the weight of information I just take in.
And I get really silly and sad.
And all I want to do is to go home.
And I can’t go home. Because I haven’t finished what I started.
So now I am going to finish this field...
A Camera
I am horrible at saving money.
So spoiled. Don’t know how that happened. It seems to never bother me that I am always broke. Horrifying.
I need to save up to buy this camera. Unfortunately, a law student doesn’t need a camera, so it would be ridiculous to ask my parents to sponsor me for this. Therefore, I have to earn it by myself.
Soon this dream will come true. Hopefully.
Everytime anh leaves me for the weekend, something changes, and sometimes I just feel like, if he leaves, my life just falls apart.
This is not good. :(
