"I arrived in the Bwoston Back Bay to a SOPPLE mist of rain."
Oh goodie, more try-hard performative purple prose narration nonsense, and another terrible poem about the weather:
"The AIR ovah the lyake was DAMP.
DAMP in the way of RYOSE PATALS and GRWASS.
DRONK with DEW and
GLISTENING.
THAAHR IS
WHARTUH INSOIDE THE RYOSE
EPHEMERALLY - THRYOO THE SKIN - its EPITHELIAL PEEL AND PEELING ETHELIAL.
It MYOOVES WITH YOO, the GLIMMER OF DEW
BOHT IS OTHAWOISE STILL."
All criticism aside: Good for her for doing this by herself. For someone as sheltered and overly dependent on her parents as she is, that's a big step and it clearly wasn't easy. Doing that took guts, and she has every reason to be proud she's stuck it out.
All criticism not aside: Choosing a trip completely centred around her fake interests and fabricated bookworm poet persona wasn't a good idea, and I don't think it'll help her at all in the long run.
This is just another poorly-made and edited video of her doing all the same fake bullshit she did at home. I couldn't even make it through the whole thing.
She gorps at things with fake wonder and whimsy.
She stares at screens pretending to be productive.
She goes to a café (at Harvard, no less) just to wave a book around and pretend to read in public.
She wanders used bookshops despite no interest in books, and naturally doesn't buy anything.
She goes to a beach just to twirl and frolic like a child and read poetry excerpts for the camera. She chose to visit the beach because it was a filming location for Greta Gerwig's Little Women - a film she doesn't appear to have watched in full, based on a book she undoubtedly never read.
She does her performative poverty act and complains how expensive things are when she's swimming in ill-gotten cash. She wasted £4000+ on this trip, but apparently second-hand books were prohibitively pricy.
She complains that she had to spend $17 on a book she's blatantly never going to read (Candide by Voltaire), yet she intentionally chose to buy a the most expensive, brand new copy should could because she thought the cover was nice instead of actually looking in the used bookstores for a copy with actual history to it for a fraction of the price.
She based an entire trip on trying to capture moments that she saw on Pinterest boards. None of it's real, and she looks panicked and miserable the whole time, barely hiding it with fake grimaces and faker narration.
If she'd gone somewhere she actually wanted to go and done things she actually enjoyed, that might've spurred her on to do break out of her fake personality and be an actual human being for a change. Instead she 3 weeks of continuing to be someone she's not and pretending to love things she clearly has no interest in.
She seems no happier doing this
tit on another continent, and I'm sure she'll attribute that lack of enjoyment to being away from home, tick being away from mummy off on her "BOCKET LIST" and never try it again.
