are you okay darling? i don't see you post since a few weeks ago :P just to make sure... (but there's no problem take your time we all have work to do outside tumblr c; )
uuuuuuuuuuuuuugh you’re all so flipping lovely on here
My problem is this: I didn’t try hard enough in school last year for various reasons (tumblr being one) and now that I’ve started at university, I am determined not to let tumblr get in the way of my education or my opportunities. I have another blog that I post on more often, but I am trying to limit my tumblr usage all together. I am still replying to messages so you can talk to me if you’d like, or if you’re looking for anything Beatles-related I’ll be here. If I get a new book or magazine or something with new photos or I read a book with interesting quotes I’ll post them here, but I can’t afford to spend so much time trawling through my dashboard anymore.
I love you all! And thank you for this message, darling, I love to know you’re thinking of me <3
Is this the one you’re looking for, beatlesrockfanforever?

hey darling, thank you! which photo are you looking for?
"I’m interested in things with more of a world-wide… I’m interested in, what’s it called, something that means something for everyone, not just for a few kids listening to wallpaper. I am just as interested in poetry or whatever or art, and always have been, that’s been my hang-up, you know–continually trying to be Shakespeare or whatever it is. That’s what I’m doing, I’m not pissing about. I consider I’m up against them. I’m not competing myself against Elvis. Rock just happens to be the media which I was born into, it was the one, that’s all. Those people picked up paint brushes, and Van Gogh probably wanted to be Renoir or whoever went before him just as I wanted to be Elvis or whatever the shit it is. I’m not interested in good guitarists. I’m in the game of all those things, of concept and philosophy, ways of life, and whole movements in history. Just like Van Gogh was or any other of those fuckin’ people – they are no more or less than I am or Yoko is – they were just living in those days. I’m interested in expressing myself like they expressed it, in some way that will mean something to people in any country, in any language, and at any time in history.
