How To Get to Know Yourself Pt. 1

Hi, all. Welcome back to my personal space on the internet. It has been quite some time since I've written a blog post like this. For this blog post-- this is actually a school assignment where I'm taking a creative concept and turning in into a three-part blog post. It's due today, March 29, so…

life Stages

“I've never been lonely. I've been in a room -- I've felt suicidal. I've been depressed. I've felt awful -- awful beyond all -- but I never felt that one other person could enter that room and cure what was bothering me...or that any number of people could enter that room.

Unheard Voices

I've always had a story brewing within, but never found the means to write it down until this semester. I'm currently in a creative writing class at my university and we needed to turn in an excerpt of writing for a class critique. Here is a small portion I turned in for my class, and so daringly…

Content with Lonliness

I don't believe love was made for me. I know I'm young and I still have plenty of time to explore and meet new people, but looking around and see how people in love act... they speak a different language than I do. I don't believe love was made for people like me. People like me endure the…

I Don’t Know About You, But I Hated 22

22 was an awful age. Almost the entire year of 2017 was completely unforgiving, and there are many factors that play a role in why it was undoubtedly the worst year I've experienced, so far. Growing up, I always hoped to have my life together and squared away by 21 or 22, so when 22…
