the manic pixie dream girls

the girl gang behind lillie. their objective is to become manic pixie dream girls but don’t realize the complex connotations of the term 

mr. keir (41)

the hot high school history teacher that’s in his 40s and holds himself higher than others because he has a phd

is hooking up with michelle/is her sugar daddy

who knows how many other students he’s slept with

lillie

michelle’s best friend since middle school. hard to tell if the friendship is healthy or not, but most likely not. at college she’s found some internet fame, leading to an even more grandiose sense of self. only issue is that she has no substance to her content. this is where michelle becomes useful to her (after learning that michelle has slept with her boyfriend, lilly realizes that michelle can write captions for her instagram posts and let lilly have all the credit and stardom)

michelle

deals with the big three: generalized anxiety disorder, depression, and the struggle of  looking up “how to tell if you are bipolar.” only problem is that her parents never noticed and now she’s technically an adult… and doesn’t understand boundaries 

she’s home for the summer after her first year of college and looking to fill the void she feels with sleeping and sex – she is her own antagonist, and a chronic journaler

Boys at Summer Camp

Why does this photo feel sad?

Taken in late summer, 2019, but looks like something from the 70s.
