Kuumba 

Thanks for blessing us with so much 

Thanks for the tag, lovely sarchastics :) <3

1) always post these rules; 2) answer the questions given by the person who tagged you and give 11 questions for the blogs you tag and; 3) tag 11 people.

(You don’t have to do it! I probably tagged you bc you’re a mutual/I know you somehow/from somewhere or ive followed you for a while)

The questions are:

1) How many pillows do you sleep with?

1 :) I’m a one-pillow sleeper. Except for sometimes a body pillow for spooning! :)

2) Your greatest fear?

Failure. UGH :(

And not being loved...

I’m working on it! :) <3

3) What movie ending really frustrated you? How would you change it?

OMG! ALL MOVIES FRUSTRATE ME! Not really, but pretty much. I’m definitely not a movie person, although I started REALLY getting into “Orange is the New Black” but I think in the fourth episode where she accidentally takes the tool, I totally lost interest.

Also, A WALK TO REMEMBER...

4) What’s the most interesting thing you can see out of your nearest window?  (Write a little backstory kinda thing for it)

Hmmm...Nearest window...I can see part of a tree. That’s pretty nice.

I guess the backstory is that I am glad there is nature around where I live like hummingbirds and butterflies and lizards and snakes and bats and owls and redtailed hawks and coyotes. I like nature. Also my parents are getting separated and my mom is trying really hard to try and keep the house so I think there’s an especially special thing about the view from all the windows and how we can see the hills and how we have an apricot tree in our backyard which has always been my mother’s dream! <3

5) What’s your strongest voluntary muscle?

Maybe my legs? LOL vagina? I’m working on practicing smiling as I walk :)

6) Who was your first teacher? What do you remember about him/her?

Probably my mom...

7) If you had to describe yourself as a flavour, what would it be and why?

OOOOOO! That’s a good one. I almost just want to say vanilla though...just your EVERYTHING flavor. Vanilla, dress it up, dress it down...

I usually keep it casual and simple with a hint of SPRINKLES!

8) What’s your earliest memory? What’s your best memory?

earliest memory...hmmm fish eyes?

best memory...falling asleep in his arms and then waking up in his arms... <3

9) Have you ever drawn on a sleeping or inebriated person?

i dont think so...

10) Are you related or distantly related to anyone famous?

probably not...my parents are both immigrants so even if they were famous I probably wouldnt even know

11) Have you ever had recurring dreams/lucid dreams? Are you good at remembering dreams? How do you view your dreams (eg. in color, through a tunnel, etc.) What’s the last dream you can remember? YESSSSS! SUCH A GOOD QUESTION! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE DREAMS! I have been remembering my dreams more lately (and also sleeping outside and going for walks and MEDITATING) and I think it is a really good sign! I DO dream in color. I DO remember my dream last night (bits and pieces) and i DO lucid dream on occasion  (#vitamin D #salvia divanorum #waking life #inception #dream is destiny #parallel universe #meditation) sarchastics

I tag:

... and I’m hoping to post my EP on Bandcamp this week! My performing name is Luella and the Ladybug, and the title of the EP is 'What Mountain'. The title is based off of the Jamie Oliveira poem 'Erosion', with their permission of course! You can check out their work and buy it here: http://www.jamie-oliveira.com and their Tumblr is cosmicroots !!

If I am ever talking to a man and find out he is married I will immediately stop talking to him no matter how much I love him and apologize to that woman.

If I was with a man and then that man got married and he is still infatuated with me I will not talk to him no matter how long I have known him.

If I see a woman I love getting mentally/physically/emotionally abused I will be there for her and I will NEVER blame her for what happened

If I ever meet the Women who lost my respect because of how they have spoken to me/interacted with my husband I will walk away before I ever yell at them or hurt them.

I am a woman and I stand up for women.

So Jamie (cosmicroots) is putting together this photo book called '(more than) dust' about empowering transgender individuals, which "transforms experiences of belittlement, misogyny, and abuse into strength and solidarity" and because she is self publishing she needs some help! 

Follow the link above and donate whatever you can (any amount I am sure she is grateful of!) before the 24 days left expires so go go go!

If you donate she will give you a copy of the book alone with poems from her!!! As an FYI about how kickstarted works, only if the target amount is reached, will the project go ahead, so if you are able and willing, please share this link and help a gal out:
