POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

It’s the first start of the week since Sept 17, 2025, that I take a sigh and realize that it’s over.

That first Monday back gives you total whiplash, one minute you’re still replaying this unforgettable stretch, reminiscing the ceremonial ending in arcosanti, and the next minute reality hits and it’s all in the rearview mirror.

Virgin… where to start.

This album helped me heal after my last relationship ended. It also strengthened the relationships & friendships that I do have. Travelling by myself to see ultrasound live forced me to overcome my fears. It helped me realize that truly, strangers are just friends you have yet to meet. It made me realize that people are kind and we have more in common than differences. It really solidified that belief for me. It helped me go from seeing the world through a jaded lens, to the exact opposite. It made me realize that if I really want something, I am resilient and will do what is needed to achieve it. It made me realize that time is fleeting but we are also in control of how it’s spent. It helped me find joy in the everyday, every hour, every minute. It gave me something to look forward to when things seemed bleak and grim. In many ways, it shaped me into who I am today.

Thank you Ella @lorde and crew @jimestack @buddyross @markspikestent @ian_gold @chrisgehringer @willquinnell @andrew_aged @nana_ve_ @evansagadencky @eduardomendezjr @maudlaceppe @jack_m_manning @kobyberman @dan_nigro & others for pouring everything into this album and for making this tour so special. Thank you for taking us along the journey, thank you @sammpennn for documenting everything and posting it for us to see. I truly felt like I was part of the whole journey I hope you know what an impact your work has on not just me, but countless others.

And just like that, ultrasound is over. I think this has been the best and most adventurous year of my life yet. It has been so beautiful and healing and im gonna try not to be sappy so I’ll just say this: Grateful to the friends I have made along the way & the magical synchronicities that followed. In particular the toronto show, @yumsodelish @ceitparker @chloe.funnell @sydney.funn and then Seattle @paige.cal @clarissasabile @elizarrose (thank ya for the haircut) @aduganna @samanthaivyh & meeting @itsjessminch at all things go then @keara_ramirez at Osheaga along with @malucoutu @emmaliexo @_t4nzii._ (perfect places) along with @_ashxn @evan_hennink and then FORM @virginmusings @cloudleafwave (loved our synchronicity stories) @museprophet & everyone else from FORM (you know who you are ) and of course everyone else + those I met online~ and have yet to hopefully meet irl. I’m looking at you @stojski_ ✈️ @grxys19 @lottie_vitaloni also who could forget those 2 iconic nights at the forum with my one and only sister @natalia.prsj the one who’s been my lorde concert buddy since 2017, thank u for putting up with me playing girl so confusing 100 times in one night since it was my hyperfixation song and for partaking in making TikTok’s with me 😭🤣 🤏🏼
