Life is generally pretty amazing. I'm Ashten and I love being happy and being with people that make me happy, because why should anyone make you feel otherwise? My family are crazy: but mine, which makes them the best. My friends are all mad heads too, because life would be boring if they weren't; and my boyfriend is beautiful. I often try to be productive, but don't always succeed. I tell myself I'm going to bake a cake, draw a picture or write a song, but somehow can't fathom the inspiration to do so. So I log in to Tumblr. In a way, this is my motivation. I run out of ideas that are conjured from my own experiences, imagination and creativity, so delve into the minds of others, through reading their blogs. But that's not such a bad thing, is it? Didn't Einstein once say that the secret to creativity, is knowing how to hide your resources? Well, the man knows what he's talking about. I've always worn my heart on my sleeve; and I know I shouldn't, because it still continues to get broken that way, but I don't know how to... not. I over analyse every little thing and make them seem way worse in my mind than in reality, but that's something that I've always done, unfortunately now more than ever; which is why I'm teaching myself to see the bright side of any situation and get rid of negative thoughts and negative people. I'm always affectionate; ironically towards anybody except my family, but they know I wouldn't have it any other way, and that they're all cuties. I'm as loyal as people come and I feel most honoured when I'm shown that I'm not just wanted, but needed by someone I care about; because it's my job to be there for them. When I see that I've done my job, helped them and made a difference in their life, it's the most rewarding thing ever. I am mesmerized by beautiful things, like when the sunlight seeps past the edges of the clouds first thing in the morning. I enjoy brightly coloured nailpolish, fairy lights, music of any genre imagineable, ranging from fragile to heavy: just as long as it takes my breath away; and generally anything teal-coloured. I'm kind of a massive nerd really, but I'm just Ashten.
