midding:
feeling the tranquil pleasure of being near a gathering but not quite in it—hovering on the perimeter of a campfire, chatting outside a party while others dance inside, resting your head in the backseat of a car listening to your friends chatting up front—feeling blissfully invisible yet still fully included, safe in the knowledge that everyone is together and everyone is okay, with all the thrill of being there without the burden of having to be.

about me:
hello person! if you’re reading this, i’m honoured you’d want to know more about me hehe.
i’m div – an average girl, who goes by average painter, and who often has too much to do & too little motivation. i’m in university right now, and still trying to figure out life as i go along. the posts on here don’t quite follow a very set theme i suppose – they’re just a jumble of my thoughts, and questions that i throw out into the universe. the pictures as cover images of my posts are mostly taken by me too 🙂
i hope you join me as i reflect on things that occur around me, and i hope we find something in common~
