this girl’s a silhouette, can't you see?

This girl is the wild smile, the icy stare She’s the crackle of the static, she’s the curses, she’s the prayers... This girl is the shaking hand, the rattling cup With a button and a note saying things are looking up. -------- Larabelle. 25. Australian. Music. Art. Cosplay. Steampunk. Sci-fi. Anxiety. Broken but okay. Lost but being found. Still learning who I am, and why I'm here.

Ok guys. (this is going to be long!)

my text posts over this amazing time in WA have been lacking, so here’s a dot-point-stream-of-consciousness.

So many feelings. In fact, ALL of the feelings.
Sarai may SEEM amazing on the internet, because well, she is…. but guys, guys, she is utterly INCREDIBLE in real life. (no YOU shut YOUR face). Immediate bonding and fun times!
Getting lost in Perth CBD and shopping and talking and pretty buildings and LOVING Perth the longer we’re there…
Frozen meals and icecream dessert and wine and deep conversation and laughter
eager anticipation for Sarah arriving and completing our trio
croissants and tea for breakfast
more exploring of the city
phonecall: bad news bear.
All of the sad and emotional shopping
FEEEEEELINGS and conversation and crazy savings on cute clothes (sexy $11 outfit!) and debating plans
Ready for Supanova opening night, how will we get there?
Bus! That then dropped us off about 5 blocks away and we had to leg it with my iphone map as a gps
discussing getting lost in Nedland and having to sell our bodies to the people living in the swanky houses
