Day 1: Anemia strikes again!

Dear anemia:
f*ck you :)

If Zelda had a mental breakdown, I have an anemia breakdown.
I feel like hell. My hands are cold, my feet are cold, but inside I feel like I have flames burning me.
It never crossed my mind that having anemia would be something so annoying.
I feel like a 85 year old trapped inside a 22 years old body.
If I try to run or walk fast, breathing turns heavy
I'm tired all the time
I'm scared of pass out
I'm never hungry but I have to eat anyways
& if I stand up fast, my vision gets cloudy

I HATE THIS

why am I so pathetic?
but you know what anemia?
you can't bring me down!

The Zelda Project

Ciao!
Come stai?
I was searching some info about Zelda Fitzgerald & I found this amazing post about How To Have A Zelda Fitzgerald Summer . If you want to read the article just click the link, if not...well is basically a list of things to have a Zelda summertime. On a nutshell is this:

• Do not work
• Befriend someone with a country house
• 'Yes' is always the answer
• Fall in love

 & guess what? I'm totally doing this & not just that, I'm going to add more things to this list so I can feel like a real flapper.
For example other stuff that Zelda used to do like:

• Dance (she had an obsession with ballet)
• Writing ( after she had a breakdown, she was not longer allowed to have dancing lesson, so she wrote a novel called "Save Me The Waltz" based on her own life & marriage but the book was unsuccessful but she still wrote a couple of things)
•  Painting (after the failure of her book she decided to express herself through painting)

etc. etc. etc. but mainly this.

I'm using this blog to show you all how is my project going. Kinda like a diary.
So, let's begin with this Zelda mayhem!

Very sincerely yours, C.

So I'm back (unfortunately)

Hello sweethearts!
I'm back with some news.
I have to stay at home as much as I can (just to rest) but I can go out to do some stuff that doesn't requiere a lot of effort.
Why? Well turns out I have anemia (I even fainted) big show indeed.
so that actually half ruined my summer (I hate summer by the way, the sun makes my skin burn in flames, like a vampire)

Sooooooo! I've been a little nostalgic & now I spend my days reading articles online or books or book reviews or reblogging stuff on tumblr.

Watching 'Midnight in Paris' didn't help.
I got caught by the character of Zelda Sayre (F. Scott Fitgerald's wife) I was hooked.
So I made some research about her. I fell in love with her. Her paitings, her letters, her life, her...everything!

So I'm kind of posposing the project I had of making a online comic about a story I was writting. I'm focusing now on Zelda Fitzgerald.

You'll know about that later.
For now...go outside and enjoy your summertime.
see you next post!
