i’ve been making zines for almost 10 years now (shoutout to my high school for letting me start a zine club) and to me, one of the most interesting things about zine-making is the ability to see how the process changes the product. the physical act of printing changes the colors, texture, and tone of the work - even just the choice between color or black and white dramatically shifts the way the work feels… i made this zine a month or two ago and i keep coming back to it. right now im working on a zine about all my other growing pains :p

wake up babe new 35mm photos dropped 🫶 as u can tell we’ve been giggling a lot - also enjoy the pic of my messy apartment i accidentally took and am sharing in hopes that you’ll think of it as messy in a sofia coppola way not a Gross way lol
i’ve just learned that the five year anniversary of our college graduation was yesterday!! here are some film photos from the rescheduled covid graduation in october 2021 <3 zoom graduation was very sad actually lol
springtime came with a strawberry in the mouth (highlight thus far has been shannon’s succession finale watch party and also eating ice cream in the park with kelsey and also giggling on jeremy’s roof with joel and andrew and talking about everything under the moon)
kiss me thru the phone
this is an essay about wanting something so badly you end up just projecting your desires onto someone else
it’s sad, funny, and a little bit humiliating to share.
