Here I am world. I live for fashion, music, people, art, culture and spontaneous moments. Living in NYC, I'm constantly being inspired. I think it's the perfect city for that, don't you agree?

David Sedaris: 97% True + 3% Fake = Non-Fiction
mpile:
Has anyone noticed how much people are talking about the definition of fiction these days? They are done getting upset at non-fiction being fiction and have started getting worried about fiction really being exaggerated non-fiction. But I don’t get why they are so up in arms––It’s always been like that. Hemingway had one love story and he wrote it over and over because it was what happened to him and he couldn’t get over it. Fitzgerald, too.
I think the problem is we just know way more about writer’s personal lives now so this bothers us, maybe takes some of the magic out of it. But I don’t think it should. Fiction is supposed to make sense of reality, find some beauty or lesson in it when life is to complicated to figure out on your own. It’s never just made up. It’s always non-fiction to some extent. Isn’t that why people read it?

“ I have accepted fear as a part of life, specifically the fear of change, the fear of the unknown. I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: Turn back, turn back; you’ll die if you venture too far.

This NY snowball adds an unexpected element on the typical souvenir: there’s a tiny plastic bag floating around gracefully with the snow. It’s ironic because snowglobes usually are idealized little realms of places but this one actually tries to portray the reality of the city. By Andrew Coates.

“ 5. The job you have right now is not that important. If I were an employer I would only hire ambitious twenty something’s. They will knock themselves out working incredibly hard on stuff that barely matters. Try to get a 35 year old to take photocopying that seriously and you’re more likely to get your dog to iron your suit in the morning.

“ Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that’s just fabulous.
Carrie, from Sex and the City (via jeralyndwile) (via seriouslythough)
