One problem with my eating schedule during the summer, is that I eat random foods at random times and not really any meals except for breakfast. Like tonight, my “dinner” was excessive handfuls of grapes, excessive vegetables/pita chips dipped in hummus, and excessive amounts of broccoli. of course none of these were eaten together on a plate in one sitting.

So I’m pretty sure I’ve tried every single food dipped in hummus. I am not exaggerating. The best combinations (IMHO) are carrots, celery, pita chips, and pretzels, but mushrooms surprisingly aren’t half bad and cucumber in the lemon infused hummus is de-licious. Tonight I learned not to to try raw broccoli in basil hummus, that was disappointing and gross.

So, I’ve never really been a huge beach person. Granted, i did grow up frequenting the Jersey Shore (which undoubtedly has its perks, but if you’ve seen the television show Jersey Shore even once, you’ll understand how Wildwood Beach and Sea Side Heightsmay havealtered my views on beaches as a whole). I think I’m more of a “doer” and less of a “sit on the beach and bake in the sun”(-er), so if you asked me to choose between the mountains and the beach, I’d choose the mountains in a heart beat.
My dad, however, has an infatuation with the ocean, (which I do understand), and could spend days upon days in the company of solely seagulls. We decided to take a trip down to Ocean City, New Jersey today, and I surprisingly had a greattime. We spent the majority of the time walking and talking the boardwalk and back, and the more I talk to my dad on a personal level, the more lucky I feel to have him as a father and a role model.
My dad brings the word idiosyncratic to life- literally, he is the absolute quirkiest person i have ever met in my entire life, and not even slightly in the “wow he’s quirky and cool” type way. Today, he went swimming in the ocean with full length jeans on “because he felt like it” and then spent a good five minutes talking about how “walking around barefoot is like an eternal massage). I could spend hours listing weird-isms that are solely his, and weird-isms he’s instilled in me. To cut to the chase, I’m glad to have been raised by someone who embraces their idiosyncrasies rather than concealing them, which too many people I deal with on a day to day basis do.
We decided to plan a road trip across New York and hit EVERY SINGLE BEACH from Cony Island to Montauk this summer!!!! It’s a trip for which my dad has been lusting for years, and we’re finally going to make it happen! yay!
I feel confident right now, good about myself. I may not be overly happy with myself physically, but I am doing my very best to let that burn away on back burner. Because there are a lot of things that I really do like about myself.
This time next week I’ll be about to head to the shore again. It iss a tradition at my school for everyone to rent houses in Ocean City the week after graduation, and the fact that I am only partial to the Jersey Shore is not going to prevent me from taking part in this! So yeah, next week 14 of my best friends and I are somehow managing to live with one another for 5 days, and I’m really excited for that!

Franz Kafka was Jewish. He had a sister, Ottla, Jewish. Ottla married a jurist, Josef David, not Jewish. When the Nuremburg Laws were introduced to Bohemia-Moravia in 1942, quiet Ottla suggested to Josef David that they divorce. He at first refused. She spoke about sleep shapes…
so very rarely i get these unexpected waves of confidence about my appearance for no reason at all —-> (i really like my legs, i really like my hair and how it gets frizzy but not too frizzy in the rain, I really like how i am naturally tan, I really like my eyes,I really like the way I dress)
I may always be a “big piece of woman” and never a “cute girl”, I may never have a bust or a curvy ass, but whatever. I’m healthy and athletic and that is okay.
i wish i could feel like this all the time, it’s so fucking random and i can’t think of what triggered it hahah
