1277 days

"1277 days" is a collection of poems, journal entries, and ramblings. The title of this project signifies a particular period in my life of emotional challenges: heartbreak, identity crisis, and coming-of-age. During this point of my life, writing was instrumental to sorting and processing my thoughts. As someone who likes to measure and keep records of my growth, I decided to take the journal entries, poems, notes, and just about anything else I could find from this period and compile them in a way that would most accurately show the rollercoaster of emotions I cycled through as I sought to heal. 

 

Wanting to stay true to my belief in the importance and beauty of acknowledging vulnerability, I complied and created this small booklet to show the journey of lows and highs, the bad and ugly but ultimately beautiful mess that is this chapter of my human experience.
