Dark And Gloomy Clouds, The Quiet Before Storm, Smell Of The Air Right Before The First Drops Fall, Open

oh to wear dark turtlenecks and oversized blazers, consume unhealthy amounts of coffee, study during rainy nights whilst the moon stares at you, go to long lost ruins of old castles with your friends and make poetry about your secret lover

types of people: cities x study szn

london: brown leather book bags, windy walks to the library, writing with fountain pens, notes that are infused with the scent of cinnamon, history, architecture, afternoon sunlight streaming through the windows

tokyo: dot-paper notebooks, colour-coding notes with gel pens, studying + eating candy, setting up a diffuser for study times, beanbag chairs, minty lip balm, biology, fashion design, notes with lots of diagrams

paris: studying to the sounds of birds singing, taking well-deserved breaks by walking in the park, hair tied back with a pink ribbon, putting on a pair of round glasses, art, french literature, small neat writing

new york: writing notes in a high-rise apartment that smells of vanilla, almost illegible cursive handwriting, using little potted plants as paperweights, film analysis, mathematics, scribbles in the margins of textbooks

rome: revising classwork by fountains with gorgeous sculptures, reading small yellow-paged books, riding a hand-me-down bicycle to classes, ancient languages, physics, smelling of wild violets as you rush into the lecture hall

sydney: humming to yourself as you take notes, studying by a big window with a breathtaking view, or beside a fish tank where you can hear the water bubbling, cream soda, mechanical pencils, pleated skirts

types of dark academia

classic academia: beige trench coats, wool sweaters. plaid skirts. think femme fatale, but educated. sobbing in bed late at night over the secret history or dead poets society. tea with milk and sugar. subsequent tea stains.

darkest academia: running through the rain, dimly lit by streetlights. brown tweed jackets, dress shoes. cold fingers and colder gazes. french-pressed black coffee, piping hot. dark, candlelit rooms with ancient wood floors/walls. 

light academia: white cable-knit sweaters, sparkly eyes and foggy glasses. going to art museums and falling in love with every portrait, every sculpture. caressing the petals of a rose, hearing the crinkle of leaves underfoot.

witchy academia: burning candles while reading or doing homework. black turtlenecks, velvet skirts. walking through the forest in autumn. passing a graveyard and feeling a greyish presence. waiting anxiously for samhain.

romantic academia: writing flowery poetry about someone you’ll never speak to (guilty oops). a cozy alizarin sweater, pleated skirts. slow dancing around your room to the beatles. curling up with warm, pallid cups of tea and a book.

scholarly academia: impeccable notes in class. leather bound bags crammed with textbooks and pens. lots of coffee with scones, and even more late nights. a wide vocabulary (that people constantly comment on). lives in the library.

theatre academia: shakespeare, all the time - quoting, reading, praying for a school production of a midsummer nights dream. or the crucible. memorizing lines in the wings. taking on your character’s traits, even outside the theater.

🌼  [you wake up early on a beautiful day only to remember you have nowhere to go and no responsibilities for the day. the dazzling sun is shining bright through your window and suddenly all the worries that clouded your head before have all disappeared. you feel light and airy. you have the whole day ahead of you.]

💔  [sitting at an old cafe in the corner of an old town, you reminisce about forgotten loves and what could have been. you feel heavy and drowsy as the rain pours outside the window. you see a couple sitting across the cafe from you, holding hands and enjoying their hot tea, and you smile. love is all around.]

💥  [you find yourself standing in the most strange museum-like building you’ve ever visited. no one else is to be seen, only you. wandering around, you find that every room you enter is a new experience that takes your breath away. it’s like entering a dream of your own making. suddenly, you aren’t tethered to earth anymore, but have become a dream yourself.]

💌  [your heart is soft and your footsteps are light as air as you walk barefoot across an open field, covered with wildflowers and plants. you think of your lover as you smell the beautiful roses and your heart soars. all you want to do is smile sheepishly and be soft. you love love.]

👅  [finding yourself amidst sweaty bodies and dazzling neon lights, you feel swept away with the rhythm of the beautiful people swaying around you. no one seems to be talking, just moving their bodies to the rhythm, just as you are. a stranger catches your eye and smiles at you, sinfully. you take the hint and move towards them. it’s going to be a fun night.]

✨  [you lay atop a soft blanket in the middle of a field, with no light other than the beautiful full moon in the sky. the universe is one with you. if you close your eyes, you can imagine laying on top of the light clouds and drifting somewhere far away.]

🚗  [the car is filled with laughter and harmonious singing of you and your closest friend as you drive towards your distant destination. everything feels right with the world as you sing at the top of your lungs and laugh about nothing in particular. the low-hanging moon is lighting your path and accompanying you on this journey.]

📢  [you stand alone in the middle of a huge but empty mall. you have an eerie and unexplainable feeling. no one seems to be in sight, but you caught a sign of movement from atop the escalator. you still aren’t sure if this is a dream or not. these are the songs playing on the speakers in the building as you navigate your way across this predicament.]

the more i learn about william shakespeare the more i lose my mind

are you more Razumikhin "goes a whole winter without lighting his stove, says he sleeps more soundly in the cold" chaotic, or Raskolnikov "faints in the middle of the police station when his crimes are mentioned" chaotic
