A clearance girl with a high-end personality
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
We reached for our coffees and our hands touched. My heart skipped a beat. My eyes turned into huge anime eyes and my heart raced. In that instant I remembered my fortune cookie fortune from the orange chicken I ordered last night, “you’ll bump into the love of your life.” Clearly this is a sign […]
Miami is so beautiful. Miami has great beaches. Miami has banging coffee. Sunshine and delicious drinks. What more could you ask for? Men. We need men. We have no men. I mean we do have men…but like…it’s a no for me on behalf of the females. And the ones we do have are extremely hard […]
It’s been a shitty week. Very shitty. I’m trying to be positive but lately it’s been hard to find the good in anything. I feel like a piece of drift wood lost in the infinite ocean. Everyday I go through the motions and feel myself slowly crumble. I feel far from my friends, my family, […]
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 […]
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 […]
A tide is coming It calls to me Rushing waters I did not forsee Voices chant an earthly call Winds are strong Ground is breaking I don’t belong Fire below boils high The air is scorched Spilling to the sky I did not hide Was not my choice But theirs alone The […]
Mother, mother Relinquish me From the fear I know to be His sin your savior Has set you free The sun has set The moon draws close In my heart I’ve always known Be wary of those with eyes like snakes They prey on those who easily quake The moon falls and the sun […]
We think differently. We feel differently. We act differently. We are artists. We strive for the unattainable. We take the road less traveled on. We challenge the impossible. We are artists. We fight harder. We dream harder. We love harder. We are artists. We break easily. We cry easily. We get angry easily. We are […]
Recently things haven’t been exactly going my way. I’m slowly feeling a little lost. I’m ‘making moves’ but I’m not sure if they’re what I want or what I should be doing. I’m hoping they’ll take me to my goal. But what is my goal? What is it that I want to accomplished? I feel […]
Today was a long day. Today was a long day. I noticed the only bench in the park was occupied by a blonde beauty. There was a stunning man walking towards me. I saw her. I saw him. I slid down next to her. He slid down next to me. The wooden bench was deeply […]
Loss. The fact or process of losing something or someone. Loss is something that we all go through. It’s evident. It’s apart of life. And it sucks. The pain of losing a loved one is something we can all relate too. I’ve been alive for 22 years and in that time I’ve lost five people. […]
72-ish hours. 4,320-ish minutes. 259,200-ish seconds. 3-ish days. An adventure. An exhausting adventure. A short amount of time to be in the city that never sleeps; the big apple. A vacation? Eh. I wouldn’t call it a vacation per say. But thankfully I got to be in NYC for a work trip. The best part? I […]
