I used to hate myself because I was different from everybody else. I’ve always wanted to fit in but I was so afraid of what people might think of me or say about me. I got so depressed that all that I could do was find something on the internet that would make me so [...]

Speech Therapy
I sat down by the blocks and began to play with it. It was something that I could do while I waited for the therapy session to begin. I curled my lips into a smile as I fit all of the pieces together. A tall brunette haired woman walked into the room as I felt [...]
The Miss Americana Documentary
I've seen Miss Americana three times now and I still find something about it that I can relate with. And her belief system of doing the right thing and doing the good thing is one of those things, because I had the same belief systems growing up. But I get called a bad girl because [...]
Breakfast At Tiffany’s
When I was a little girl, my step-father gave my mom a copy of three of Audrey Hepburn’s movies that I would watch on my laptop from time to time. Her charisma on screen and personal life blurred into one character, the main character of the film, Breakfast At Tiffany’s. So, as a normal fan [...]

The Timeless Firefly
Photo found on Google She saw the plainness of his words Like a firefly under the moonlight. It was timeless just like a disco ball. She'd believe to be truer than true. Jane and Emily aged her mind With tales, she'd only dreamed and The choir sung a thousand songs But none were about the [...]
Take It From Taylor
Take it from Taylor Swift to write about what matters to her. From her mother's battle with breast cancer, to something super random like drinking alcohol. Everything that every eighteen year olds and older does in bars and clubs around the world. Drink wine, drink beer, drink cider, and drink a cocktail drinks. Crying at [...]
