I literally just got the shit scarred out of me. So a bunch of us that are in New York are all hanging out in a hotel room and we get a knock on our door. So we all flip shit because a- its past curfew and b- there was alcohol in the room. So we thought it was the teacher and we got so freaked out then we open the door and its another girl from our group and she looks really freaked out and she asks us if we got a call from the front desk because she just got a call from them saying we were in a stage 4 emergency state and we needed to stay in our rooms and lock the doors and not open them for anyone. So full out panic erupts someone grabs the phone to call the front desk to confirm someone tries to turn on the TV to see if there is anything on the news. Basically I thought we where going to die. Turns out it was one of the junior boys playing a prank. I have never been so scared in my life.
Very delayed but this is the view from my room in New York City 24 stories up. (Taken with instagram)
“I think it’s hard enough to bring up children and everyone knows that limelight is the worst thing for them. They either get conceited, or else they get hurt… they need their mother’s affection and guidance and long periods of time alone with her. That is what gives them security in an often confusing new world” ~ Jacqueline Kennedy
Happy Mother’s Day xx
Caravaggio, Mary Magdalen in Ecstasy, 1606
The Mary Magdalene is a stark image of exile, of anguish, and guilt … Caravaggio had killed a man, and come close to death himself, and the first instinct of a Catholic was to make an act of contrition. His Magdalene is the sinner who spent many years in solitary penitence; she conveys the sense of desolation and abandonment that is part of the mystical experience; and the divine light creates a dazzling darkness. — Helen Langdon
