life ~ a photostory

  ~ a life update in the form of a photostory ~ this is truly Julia's aesthetic, entirely by accident, most of her closet is blue and white stripes. she's always either wearing her airplane propeller necklace or her dream necklace, wearing double dutch braids.  Once upon a time, there was a girl named Julia. She was a dreamer, one with a good imagination and wide horizons. Some of her happiest days as a teenager were spent taking photos of dolls, lying in the street to get the perfect angle. Her dolls were like built in friends, companions wherever she went, on trips and vacations and outings.  As she grew up, Julia grew busier and busier, and high school was a lot of work. But she had goals and she did everything she could to reach them. One of them was graduating two years early, which took up a lot of time and energy. After hours upon hours of studying, she finally graduated.  Taking a gap year beginning in 2020, the weirdest year of the century, she had no lack o...

The Time Machine ~ May DOTM ~

"Charlie!" I heard Taryn call as she ran across the lawn.

"Yes?" I said as I stood from where I was playing with Jack.

"I have made an amazing discovery!" She said as she came up to me.

"Oh no." I thought but I followed her.

She gestured to a cardboard box covered in tinfoil. I looked at it, confused.
"It's a time machine!" she said excitedly.

On one side was the word 'time' with some buttons and stickers.

On the other side was the word 'Mashine' which was crossed out and replaced by 'Machine' and a dial that read past, present, and future.

As I stood and took it all in she looked at me and finally said "What are you waiting for?"

"Get in!" she said pointed at the door.

"I'm not so sure..." I said as I sat in cramped box time machine.
"I thought you said you weren't good at science-y stuff."

"No." She said, "That's just when I have to study. And don't worry. I'm probably really good at this."


Jack came over to my boot and tried to climb in with me.

"Jack can come, too. Right?"
"Nope." Taryn said taking him away.

'I have a bad feeling about this.' I thought.

"Ready?" Taryn asked as she came back. "Um, I guess." I said reluctantly.
"Now. When would you like to go?" Taryn asked.
"Well. I guess now is the best time." I answered.
"Ugh." Taryn sighed.

She turned the dial to the left. "I'm sending you to the past!" she said.

She hit some buttons and made the noises with her mouth, but then I could feel a little vibration and then there was a whirring noise. And it started to shake.

"It's working!" Taryn shouted as she jumped up.
But then the noise and vibration changed a little.. and then it changed a lot.

I leapt out of the box and landed on my back on the ground.
 
 
And just as I jumped the time machine exploded.
"No!" Taryn groaned as she fell on her back beside me. "All that work."
 
"Well," she said as she sat up, never upset for very long, "I guess I will rebuild it and we can try again later."

I sighed.
"I love you Taryn." I said.
