• wear your flaws upon your sleeve



    Hayley Lauren. 21, based in Miami, majoring in psychology & all that pre-med stuff and dabbling in things like art & language & vocal performance. I like proper grammar, train rides, longboarding, petrichor, jennifer lawrence, good books, guacamole, sunflowers, peonies, & roses, gregorian chant, earlobes, la langue française, marilyn monroe, carbohydrates, tea, good music, sharp wit, peaches, saturday morning cartoons, and maintaining a thin façade of normalcy. I'm obsessed with quotes. I have my own ideas. I am afraid of not being taken seriously by others, but even more afraid of taking myself too seriously. I laugh & I cry & I crave attention, so basically I'm just another casualty of the human condition.
    I just reblog things I like... if something's mine, it will be in my "personals" tag.
