hello

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,

my name is caroline and i am a christian, "of all these, i am the worst"; a writer, a lover of the ocean and rivers and water; probably a mermaid in a former life; obsessed with writing about humans and humanity and their pain and their love; the actual biggest turd you will ever meet and really dumb and i will flirt with you a lot and call you names.

you can associate me with my love for john steinbeck and ernest hemingway and henry david thoreau. of all things, i most want to be associated with jesus, but i am so far from that. i don't understand a lot of things. and i have been running for a long time now. 

"ALL OF US HAVE IN OUR VEINS THE EXACT SAME PERCENTAGE OF SALT IN OUR BLOOD THAT EXISTS IN THE OCEAN, AND, THEREFORE, WE HAVE SALT IN OUR BLOOD, IN OUR SWEAT, IN OUR TEARS. WE ARE TIED TO THE OCEAN. AND WHEN WE GO BACK TO THE SEA - WHETHER IT IS TO SAIL OR TO WATCH IT - WE ARE GOING BACK FROM WHENCE WE CAME." ― John F. Kennedy

 

if you want to be friends with me, don't take yourself too seriously, and tell me about your fears and loves. i love talking but i love listening, too.

one of these days, i am going to go on a great adventure, and i will not look back; you can come with me. 

things that i talk about too much: california, teen wolf, surfing (even though i can't, yet), daniel sharman, summer, writing, dead poets society, volleyball, mumford and sons, and art in all its good forms.

"my aim is to put down on paper what i see and what i feel in the best and simplest way." --ernest hemingway
