"Smell you later" is a phrase inspired by Tyler, The Creator’s song “Are We Still Friends?” It's used as an alternative way to say goodbye to someone you love—because saying goodbye often feels like letting go, or bidding farewell to the uncertainty of tomorrow. It is used as a promise that even if you’re parting now, a piece of them still lingers in the air.
It’s not about literally smelling someone (though scent is memory) it’s about leaving behind a trace—a moment, a memory, a feeling.
A way to say, “I’ll miss you, but I’ll catch you in the wind of tomorrow.”
Used when:
– You love someone but can’t find the courage to say goodbye.
– You’re leaving but hoping the universe finds a way to bring you back to them.

Get the Smell you later mug.A movie that just came out this year. It follows the other previous movies, which are “28 days later” and “28 weeks later”. In this movie, we are introduced to a boy named Spike, who lived his whole life in a quarantined camp in Scotland. He lives with his father and sick mother. One day, after Spike catches his dad doing something wrong, he decides to take his sick mother to see the mysterious Dr. Kelson. In the end, Kelson euthanizes Spike’s mom, they find a baby and bring it back to the camp, and Spike ventures off to find his own adventure.
I like 28 Years Later. I thought it would be more action packed than the other movies, but it’s still ok.

Get the Buy now, pay later mug.About at least more than a year later though not two (yet), I be looking at my old definitions from last year and I compare it to how much i've changed as a person this year. Some things were alright alto some if the things I say in those definitions are WACK asf. I'm def not the same person I was a year ago, I'll tell u that much. A few things have never changed like how I have many admirers, love to have a good time, spiritual diva asf, good intuition, etc. Things that did change includes the fact that I am much more humble especially when it comes to my confidence and who I am as a being. I am also more respectful with myself too! I was never a bad person, but looking back at my old definitions tells me I felt like I needed to prove a point as well as myself to everyone because I felt very misunderstood which I know now that I don't need to do that as I stopped giving a damn about what others might think of me. I even cut out all of the people that were super toxic in my life and i've never been happier. I seriously underwent a huge transformation and i'm super happy about it. I'm proud of how far i've come especially in this past year. For those that are currently going through similar or the same thing that I went through, u will get through it, I promise u that. As long as u put in the effort to work on your self as well as the self-love u need, u got this.
Person 1: Wow. I did not see that coming.
Person 2: I honestly did like her before, but now I like her even more! Damn, what a year later can do to someone.
P.S- Im forced to define this so : Damm, A Year Later
