Hi, I'm Mariel. Welcome to my blog! I'm a seventeen high school senior. I enjoy writing, drawing, singing, and taking macro/landscape pictures. Follow, don't follow, creep, stalk, whatever you please... :D
I dislike people who seek attention but never give any.

It’s unhealthy how in love I am. Thank you to my lovely brother for buying me this drawing tablet I have been wanting since I was 11.
@jmrln: I thought I had my deviantart at 12, but it was 11 :3

It’s my 18th birthday, my closet broke, everyone is busy and I don’t want to bother anyone which means only one thing…

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
And so most adults mosey on through life without ever questioning the world around us. We know that the sky is blue, that we can’t control objects with our minds, and that walls are too solid to walk through. We become so accustomed to our reality we forget to question it.
I like to question the solidity of my surroundings. For instance, I might look at a cup on my desk and wonder does that really exist or am I imagining it? Does it go away when I stop looking at it? How about the air - can I see the air? Is it warm, cold, dense, sparse, colorful, invisible? This is how you build self-awareness: questioning your own feelings and perceptions in the moment.
I think I’m going to start a dream journal. It’s about time.
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
A genius inventor, Tesla is best known for his many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism. His work formed the basis of modern-day commercial electricity using Alternating Current (AC) power systems. However, he also came up with many marvelous scientific claims, some of which remain unresolved to this day, nearly 70 years after his death.
Nikola Tesla possessed some extraordinary mental characteristics: an acute sense of hearing, visualization skills so vivid as to mimic reality, and bizarre eccentricities of habit and behavior. His visualizations enabled him to conduct realistic “dream experiments” while he was wide-awake in the lab. As a result, it is very tempting to suggest that, in his virtual laboratory, Tesla functioned one level above the lucid dream state. He had the ability, while being both physically and mentally awake, to run complex visualizations internally with all the realism and automaticity of a lucid dream world.
I get a little emotional when I think about the things I’ve left behind in my dreams. It kills me inside knowing that I’ve woken up happy, but can’t remember why or what was capable of making me feel that way.
