1942
Hello, I’m Madeleine. I like tea, winter, cats and art. And short sentences. Yes, I'm your typical spinster.

An Underwater Fairyland Is Seen at Silver Springs, Clifton Adams, for National Geographic, January 1930.“So clear is the water that submarine flora, growing amid fantastic formations of rock and shell, with fish darting about, is plainly visible even where the spring is 80 feet deep. This girl swimmer, feeding the tame fish, is many feet below the surface. In the background is the dim hulk of a sunken boat.”
"I probably still haven’t completely adapted to the world. I don’t know, I feel like this isn’t the real world. The people, the scene: they just don’t seem real to me." by Haruki Murakami
