I love how you describe finding your joy as a bit. Like your doing your part in the world by being you. I love that. I do that too, hadn’t considered it a bit though. My bits include being a horse girl or understanding current politics or helping people chase their dreams.
something about the way you described the faithfulness, the loyalty towards yourself and your joy really got to me. I love this! you squeezed my heart (in a good way) with this post! thank you!
LOVE this especially after I just spent the last hour putting glow in the dark stars on my ceiling in the shape of constellations so I can stargaze in nyc ✨
omg this is soo precious and exactly what it means to be a romantic these days. I’m the sameee way. I get excited for my own birthday, movie trailers, seeing a butterfly lol. the list goes on, as it should!!!
This speaks to me sooo deeply. I’m turning 34 in a couple weeks (still don’t know how that # is real, but alas!) and my two-year-old son will be spending the night at his grandparents so I can have all my girlfriends over for a collage and craft night — middle school style.
Another bit I love: the over-the-top birthday party invitation.
I LOVE THIS!!!!!! i think a lot about aging and bits (lol), because i really believe you are as young as you feel not as you are- i get very weirded out when people speak about age in such rigid terms when it is in actual one of the most fluid parts of our existence
"i’ve noticed that lately i have been caring a bit less about things, it’s a foreign numbness that i expected to feel good, but instead it’s as if my life is slipping off of me, slowly burning like acid as it drips down." wowww
omg what is life without a bit, right? I usually do these things with my sister (my partner in crime)! The bits are way more fun when we have people who will totally commit to it (even if they don’t understand it, but just because they love you)
I had a cowboy themed birthday party that I spent months organizing and I was literally so happy when everyone showed up with cowboy costumes, I have my weekly karaoke nights with my best friend… I don’t even know what my life would be like without a bit! It’s extremely therapeutic to me because I LOVE a routine (currently writing a post about it) and it helps me remember that there is more to life. 💖
omg I AGREE bits make the world go round. 2 nights ago my friends and I couldn't stop saying "it's a knife when…(insert unpleasant or random thing)" and it wasn't that funny but it was also the funniest thing ever
I love that you throw yourself into your passions! This resonated with me:
“when someone used to ask me why i was so dressed up (which happened most days) i would be so confused and answer, “why not??????””
This is me every day! Let the unimportant stuff go- the uncleaned drawers, whatever- and never stop giving 100%! 💕
thank you!!!!! needed that reminder as i sit here staring at the clothes i have to put away <3
Play with them, build some outfits in advance, for when you don’t have the mental energy!💕 This is one of the best things I do for myself.
Oh Emily, that's me every day and I literally have two rooms full of clothes. Of COURSE they don't get put away!
your essays feel like wow I need to have this girl at my party!
i would literally come to any party you throw

i love this and relate to this so much! life is so much more precious with little joys and the bits that we find special and unique <3
The way you do one thing is the way you do everything or whatever they say! You have to commit 🤍🍸
forever one for the bit! life is dull without giving into it

ok we also just did a coke-oreo and oreo-coke taste test and that was also top 10 memories of senior year
wait my friend and i just tried the oreo x coke flavor AND the coke x oreo cookie as a bit yesterday we’re sooooooo aligned
they were bad btw but no regrets
Ok I’m with you
What’s your verdict??????!!
