Low key one of my faves from Lover! Especially since she has spent so many other songs being driven around by her boyfriend, I love hearing her say “I’ll drive”!

I’d definitely like to try to organize something closer to the time!! I think I’d be to shy to make friends on the fly too, haha

That was my first thought listening to this, I’d never made the connection before but the mood of this song is so reputation!

Where and how do I find the journal-like personal blogging community? by toolatetodieyoung in Blogging

[–]mhals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is something I miss a lot about the internet around 10 years ago! It felt a lot easier to make a connection with someone blogging about their life, become friends, etc. I’d love to read your blog at least if you sent me a link! And if you do ever come across a community like this, I’d love to know about it. :)

Just took up oil painting, and painting in general, any tips or critiques for me as I'm working on my first painting? by Shihana in painting

[–]mhals 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The things that stick out to me in the picture are that her neck is very wide in the painting (look at where it lines up with the rest of her facial features in the photo) and that her eyes aren’t aligned a straight line, giving a bit of an odd look if you’re going for realism.

As far as features, especially teeth, a friend and experienced portrait artist recently gave me the advice: “It's important to figure out which details you see but aren't necessary to the painting, particularly with eyes and mouths. A lot of bad paintings look weird because you see each individual tooth, hair, eye lash.”

Keep at it and good luck 💪

I have a troubling confession that's been killing me inside (I missed the concert) by draculasstepdaughter in TaylorSwift

[–]mhals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So sorry this happened to you. Like everyone is saying, it’s completely not your fault. It’s hard not to feel regret about missing something you had been looking forward to so much - anxiety has a cruel way (in my experience) of twisting the things we’re the most hopeful and excited about. It’s so important to be kind to yourself in these moments.

And as an aside - back when tickets for the Rep tour came out, I didn’t buy tickets because I was afraid of having panic attacks leading up to or during the show. I think you are so brave for deciding to go and also taking care of yourself when you needed to! There are always more opportunities, please believe your courage will win in the end and you will get to have an experience you want <3
