A clearance girl with a high-end personality
I like to think that humans are becoming more like robots everyday. Imagine, most of us have a routine of waking up, eating, getting kids ready (if you have any), working, eating (again) and sleeping (maybe). It’s the same thing every day. Clock in and clock out. It gets redundant. Some people work so hard […]
I’ve been reflecting a lot this week. I’ve been looking back on all the mistakes I’ve made and people I’ve met. It’s left me in a confused state of mind. Not many people know that that’s how I’ve been feeling. I’ve been feeling sad and empty. It’s quite complicated to describe really. It’s been this […]
I don’t know how to express it The attraction I feel from the moon The pull she has over me The way her light washes over me Calming me I feel at peace in her presence I don’t know how to express it The attraction I feel from water The pull she has over […]
She stops me in my tracks. My blood freezes and my heart stops. I lose control over my body and fear takes over my nervous system. My bones are paralyzed, my dreams stay locked in my head and opportunities fade away. Her name is fear and she is my ying. She whispers in my ear […]
So whose idea was it to give females periods? Because let me take a second to complain about Eve. SO you’re gonna tell me that because Eve ate a dam apple the WHOLE ENTIRE female gender has to be punished?! YOU’RE telling me GOD decided to punish us ALL because of HER mistake?! I’m sorry […]
Over a year ago I had to write a short paper on Journalism v. Creative Writing. I just about died at the thought of writing it. Here we have a paper where I have to write about my two worlds colliding. I loved creative writing ever since elementary school. But the amount of narrative essays […]
Fall is officially here! So order all the pumpkin spice lattes as you can. Personally I’m not a big fan but drink to your heart’s content. I am very excited for this season, mainly because it’s finally fall. As much as I love fall I hate it. Mainly because where I live it’s summer all […]
I am 2 out of 1. I have two sides. One always hides. 1 ethnicity. 2 nationalities. Separated by a giant sea. A foreigner in one. A misfit in the other. Where are my sisters and brothers? My tongue is tied in confusion. Afraid to speak and make a mistake. I stay […]
My whole life I’ve been taught to get an education. That what matters is that I finish with my diploma and luckily in the area of what makes me happy. And while others for the most part are taught something similar it’s not easy. College is expensive. Books cost and arm and leg each semester. […]
Today I will be sharing some of my favorite things to watch according to genre. I always give my friends recommendations which they either love or forget I even mention so I figured I might as well make a list to keep it all in one place! FAV FOREIGN MOVIES 1. Ali’s Wedding- Bollywood 2. […]
I hate being in my 20s. I do. I really, really, really do. Your 20s are all about figuring out who you are, what you’re meant to do, where you’re meant to be, who’s going to be there for you and it freaking sucks. Because here’s the thing; you have this idea about how you […]
I’ve typed the same line five times unsure of how to begin. A few weeks ago I posted on Instagram asking what should I write about. A friend of mine had mentioned talking about culture and how it influences you. Now please don’t take any offense to anything that’s about to be said this is […]
The craziest thing happen a few weeks ago. I was getting ready for my show, going full glam drama queen when I noticed one of my cast mates staring at me. I met her eyes and smiled. She immediately apologized and said, “you’re just so pretty and so amazing at makeup.” For a second I […]
Happiness comes in all shapes and forms It’s something we’re all tirelessly searching for. We search for it so much we blind ourselves to how it even looks. We think that to find happiness we need a special map to uncover its complexity when in fact it’s quite simple. Most people think you can only […]
I have seen to find myself in limbo…again I always seem to trail back to this corner of my mind. A small cave where I’m lost. Stuck. Confused. I sit here and ponder. Who am I? What do I do next? Should I? Should I not? The walls are filled with questions and visions. So […]
It’s the little things. It’s the little things that keep us moving forward even when darkness clouds our minds and our hearts feel heavy with agony. It’s the simplicity of watching the sun paint the sky in shades of rose, scarlet and orange. It’s the sound of rain tapping on your window like the call […]
There are few moments in my days where I feel at total peace. And as of late I’ve been needing them more and more. It’s hard to describe what I’m feeling. Life is roller coaster and while the high’s are great it’s the lows that I can get trapped in. I think we all as […]

When my mother was 12 years old she had to stop going to school. She had learned the basics of reading, writing and math more or less. But she had to stop her education because she had to help her family work on the farm. You heard me, a farm. She grew up in a […]
It was Saturday morning. I was sitting in my screen porch with a cup of coffee before it got too hot. I was in my brother’s old sweatpants and a baggy shirt. I had no makeup on and frizzy hair. I suffer from acne, frizzy hair, morning allergies, struggling to pass my Law and Ethics […]
Breathe. The smell of roasted beans consumes her sense of smell. Her body shivers slightly by the breeze of the A/C as she walks in. The door chimes and she is greeted by warm faces. She smiles back, staring at the menu unsure of what to choose. She hums with excitement. Her usual order rolls […]
It’s been a long time hasn’t it? I remember in my last post I mentioned how there’s only five days left in May what could go wrong? Well I got incredibly sick again and on top of that my rehearsal schedule was getting more intense. Over the past two weekends I’ve been performing in my […]
Do you ever wonder why you said goodbye? What could have happened if you hadn’t let go? If you hadn’t gone separate ways? Would you still be friends? Would you still be close? Still be more? Still share secrets? It’s weird to think that there are people out there who know your secrets. People you trusted and believed in. But you can’t dwell on those thoughts. There’s a reason people come and go in your life. They come to teach you lessons and […]
The past few weeks have been extraneous. May has been a hell month for me. I find it quite funny calling it a hell month seeing how in high school May was always known has hell month since it was a month filled with AP testing. It’s been a stressful month with starting university, working […]
In elementary school everything is sunshine and rainbows. We smile and laugh with our friends. Drama free, worry free, mentally free from the chaos of feelings and bills. We have this thought in our head that we’ll be friends forever; yearbooks filled with sappy messages promising such a thing. But here is the reality, it’s […]
