My first research / photo shoot for my project, the project is about how being ill through my final year of uni has affected me.

"Trying to undergo a whirlwind of education while suffering from chronic illness feels like trying to earn your stripes with a ball and chain attached to both of your feet.

You push yourself forward as much as you can but there is always this constant weight pulling you back. When you are surround by buzzing minds and active peers a sense of isolation sets in. Like standing alone in a field at night, the clanking and rustling of ripe thoughts fill you with a sense of paranoia. The air is thick and all around you is darkness. It is just you, alone with the moonlight shining on you, just you. The center of the world, everyone is looking at you and the pressure just builds and builds. I am surrounded, but I am alone. "

~ C. Lewis (Ophycore)

Twinkle, twinkle little star, how i wonder what you are
there's a million little lights when the sky turns black tonight
are there patterns in our skies, are patterns only in our eyes?

or is a constellation just a constellation?
is a constellation just a consolation?
~ Darwin Deez - Constellations
