I guess I always find "about me"s difficult to write because I either sound like I belong on myspace or someone who tries too hard to be profound. I'll start with the basics: My name's Ramelcy, and I'm from a little place you might have heard of known as New York City. I consider myself a Feminist and have an opinion on just about anything and everything. My tumblr is my own and no one else's so I'll post whatever quotes, rants, pictures, and random bullshit that I want. I guess it provides a bit of insight to who I am or at least I think I am? Don't hesitate to say hello. Follow and enjoy or not ?

Goodbye, my almost lover. Goodbye, my hopeless dream. I’m trying not to think about you, can’t you just let me be?
A Fine Frenzy
I Want to Punch My Brain in the Face
Why must it find you in everything I see and hear.
Damn you, brain, damn youuu!
I’ve decided that until I write my feelings on tumblr, they don’t exist.
Yep, denial is my new thing.
Si tú me dices ven, lo dejo todo. Si tú me dices ven, será todo para ti. Mis momentos más ocultos, también te los daré. Mis secretos que son pocos, serán tuyos también.

Pay It Forward
So today my Senior class finally went on our especial Senior ~end of the year~ retreat.
We saw clips from a movie called Pay It Forward, which was actually quite touching. (even though I didn’t necessarily agree with their portrayal of a Black man in it) The movie is basically about the idea of doing these life-changing deeds for another a person, a deed that can “fix” the person or their situation, and that person in return will do the same for three others. And so on and so on.
After the movie, we split up into groups and of course, answered “deep” questions. My group was asked to think of people we know personally that have “paid if forward”. Most of the people in my group spoke of family members like our moms, grandmas, or sisters, but one of my friends chose me…*tear* She said I taught her the importance of self-love and valuing herself.
Then when everyone came together, and the floor was open for anyone to speak about someone who has taught them something valuable, a new possible way of thinking, or anything that has caused any growth. I identified that same friend for always teaching me to stay true to myself and be like “TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT” because I have never met anyone so carefree and nonchalant about the opinions of others. Then she spoke on how I showed her the importance of self-love, self-respect, and valuing her own dignity.
Anyone who knows me, knows I’m not the touchy, mushy, feely type at all, but I was really touched. I never thought I would have made such an impact on anyone. And it makes me proud to know that a big part of me has only been able to do that through my feminism and everything I’ve been able to gain because of it. I love my friend so much and to know her has been such a blessing. Today was the shizz.
On one hand, I want to punch you in your face just because you fucking exist, and I want to avoid you forever.
But on the other hand, I want you to put in effort or randomly call me like you used to. (Sigh.)
Booo!
I hate how you’re that one person who I always seem to end up caring about no matter how many times you fucked up. I obviously don’t learn my lesson the first time around.
And Cue My Heart Melting.
Him: lmao I don't hate on you, I love you lil homie
Me: LOL don't gotta lie no more
Him: Lol how many times I tell you I love you? A lot, right.
Me: lmao 0x0 so never!
Him: lmao, lies. I told you I love you a trillion times.
Him: By the way I love you.
Me: ~
Him: A trillion and one.
Me: lmaoo WOW aren't you SMOOTH!
On one hand, I wish I had all my thoughts and feelings together, but even then, I don’t think I’d be any more sure of what to do.
