Some Resolutions Just to Say I Have Some
December 26, 2016
I am really not one for making resolutions for the new year. I have always brought myself up on the belief that a new year shouldn’t dictate when I make changes in my life that I want to make. However, every year I try to make a list of running goals for my year so I can look back to see if I have effectively stuck to my desired changes.
An Early Goodbye to 2016
December 11th 2016
It is the end of another year and time to reflect on what I have learned in the past (almost) 365 days.
What The Summer Has Taught Me
August 14th 2016
The future is terrifying. I wrote a bunch of flowery ways of getting that point across but all of them sounded relatively insincere. Also, since I’m trying to be as real as possible in this post, I had to google insincere because I was spelling it so wildly wrong that spellcheck couldn’t fix it.

I Don’t Enjoy Coffee, But I Know a Good Cup
June 7th 2016
Alright, so I had been thinking about making a post about my sexuality for a long time because I feel like sexuality is not very often discussed when you identify as heterosexual. Heterosexuals seem to have a very “it is what it is” outlook on how they view their own sexuality and they often fail to explore the layers of themselves in order to not challenge their self-assigned label. I, on the other hand, have spent a lot of time truly trying to pin down what exactly I am in terms of a sexual being and have reassigned myself an individual label that I am pretty sure is not an actual term, but for myself it is one:

Nighttime Nostalgia and Drowsy Thoughts
May 15th 2016
It is currently 2:43 AM as I begin this post and the reasons for that are that:
- I lost track of time and somehow ended up being awake this late…or early depending on how you look at it
- My anxiety is going wild right now which is sort of why I’m writing right now
Bruises Heal and People Leave Sometimes
April 16th 2016
Bruises Heal and People Leave Sometimes. I thought of that short phrase as a stared at my bruised knee in the bathroom mirror and noticed how the size had gone down and the color was returning to normal. I had hit my knee into a piece of sound equipment I was loading in for a music festival at school a week ago. The bruise was big and trailed from the top of my knee to the bottom in small blobs of brown, black, purple and blue. It was as though the whole universe, with its galaxies and stars and colors, was shrunken down and put on my knee for me to watch over and protect.
