one of the best days of my life.
you know, when you worked hard your whole life in order to see results, you basically earned the right to be proud of your achievements.
go on, there's no shame in that!
*Blessing of the Cape*
in universities up and down my country, you can see young men and women dressed in this exact attire, with personalized patches telling their entire academic path (and these alter from one university to another) and there's a air of pride and contentment in their faces.
even people around you seem to treat you with more respect.
*after blessing of the cape you cannot wash it EVER again*
I live in a country where appearances matter immensely.
the word best to describe this feeling is "Backwater".
dressing the way I do doesn't exactly gather me the most compassionate of looks.
but when I put on my Traje...
people react completely differently to me. but that does not make me want to dress like those muggles.
it just pulls me towards hating even more this type of "society".
*my pretty patches on my pretty cape!*
we can't put on any makeup, piercings sometimes have to be left at home and nails must be presented with a clear nail polish.
*me and my sweet Godmother after the Folding of the Cape, one fold for each academic year*
I love this photo above.
my smile is so real, so honest. it seems to have given birth to a thousand suns.
and you can tell when I'm faking it ´cause I look terrible on the photos afterwards!
*suck it baby, I'm a star, see? a weird star with no makeup...*
life is taking its course, I gather.
four months from now I'll be finishing my Degree and moving to Norway with the person I love the most in my life.
people spend their whole lives ruminating about what went wrong, but what happens when everything starts to work out for you?what then?
*know thy enemy? more like love thy neighbor!*
oddly enough, it can be quite scary.
to have so much to lose.
but it's a good scary.
but I guess that's when you know you're truly living.
xoxo
