The Blogger Aesthetic Award | and a poem

Hello everyone!! I have been in a terrible reading slump and I thought it would be a perfect time to do this award. I wasn’t tagged by anyone to do this. However I have been seeing this award around and I love anything aesthetic. So here we are!!

The Blogger Aesthetic Award was created by Liam @ Hey Ashers!

The Rules:

• Collect any number of images that you feel represent you as a person—your personality, aspirations, favorite things, anything at all that makes you you.
• Put your chosen images together into a collage of whatever size and shape you find pleasing.
• Share your masterpiece with everyone, in all the places.
• Maybe nominate other bloggers as a way to tell them, “Hey, you, I think you’re awesome, and we should celebrate that awesomeness.”
• Share these rules (and maybe the below tips, if you’re feeling helpful).

Tips:

• Find inspiration by spending (minimum) three hours scrolling through aesthetic Tumblr posts relevant to you.
• Two great places to hunt for pictures are Pinterest and WeHeartIt. Pinterest requires an account; WeHeartIt does not.
• PicMonkey’s collage editor is free to use and doesn’t require an account, heck yes. YouTube has plenty of tutorials on how to use it; I watched this one (which begins with tips on how to find decent photos).

My Aesthetic:

my favorite color is black
because it speaks
a lot about my life.

i love an autumn rainy
day in new york city.
it’s the calm within
the storm.

baxter is the love of
my life. he’s not just
an animal, he’s my child.

writing has saved me
from the shitstorm
that is my mind.
planners have secured me
from the anxiety that’s
within me.
books have escaped me
from my reality.

please do not talk
to me unless i have
had my cup of coffee.
cafe bustelo with a
bottle of water on
the side,
puerto rican style.

the galaxy connects with me.
i am one with the universe.

i am demisexual,
therefore i fall under the
asexual umbrella.

– here lies me
