FML: On Wednesdays, We Wear Pink!

Shh DON’T TELL


I keep my secrets hidden from you

These words that hurt to hear

Words I etched half-heartly in the heated moment take form – a hurt that stains these pages

Set aside the burn to start again

 Turning these pages tangled with delicate string

Tie my happiness in neat little bows and tell me how to be better without you

 


Top: Bershka | Skirt: ASOS | Sunglasses: Soeurs.Co 

Yes I am fully aware that it is indeed a Tuesday today but how strict is the “On Wednesdays, we wear pink” rule exactly?

It’s one of my favourite quotes from Mean Girls that I can relate so well thinking about my high school years. From calling dibs on who wore what first to where you sat during lunch, you could form some sort of secret club through little acts of exclusivity – school politics were always quirky like that.

Self-titled “Drifter” in high school culture speak, I am thankful I have never experience anything like a “Burn Book” situation during the I guess “bratty drama” stage of awkward teenage life but I was no less immune to the dirty cruel game of cat-and-mouse we used to play to prove one another wrong. Once we battled our way to be on top, what did we gain from squashing the other down? Was the prize worth it?

No matter how much history we may have had together, the words we used cut through deeper than a sting. When nothing can be taken back, in times like these, we simply can do one thing: let one another go.

 

Do you remember your first big friend fight?

How do you solve conflict within your social circles?

 

Until Next Time!

Thanks for the kind words and transparent thoughts on my post about blogger burnout. I to took a 1.5 year full on break and only posted occasionally for the next year after when I went on vacation. I just started again last April and definitely felt like it was from scratch. I totally should have wore pink today! I always for get about the wednesday pink rule =P. I love how your top is half one color and half pink =)

I love your top! And I love pastel pink in general. You might be thinking that I’m lying but I didn’t had a fight (like cat fight) with anyone in high school because everyone was just so nice -I’m one lucky gal. But, misunderstandings will forever exist within friendships and I think the only solution are forgiveness, listening, and understanding combined.

Thanks Fads!
Your absolutely right about forgiveness, listening, and understanding!
I wish I had some of this advice when I was dealing with fighting back in the day.
You are one lucky girl for sure, it sounds like the perfect high school to me :D

This blouse design is so beautiful! My group and I have never fought before because we all met in our twenties so we’re a lot more mature than our teenage selves. Whenever my fiancé and I argue we always take a moment to breathe, let each other say what they need to say without the other interrupting, and then hug it out :) Communication is key

Ohhh, this top is just darling on you. I was never a fan on pink until recently. Such a perfect pairing with the white skirt. You look fabulous. My best friend and I have known each other since Kindergarten. We’ve had disagreements but we’ve never gotten into a fight. Honesty and communication is definitely key in any relationship. Have a great weekend babe.
