Arbitrary Madness. Artistic Exploration. Dope Things.
The Cavs lost and I don’t quite know what to say, so I decided I’m gonna regurgitate all the Cleveland fan feels. These thoughts amuse and comfort me. 1. There will always be an asterisk next to Kevin Durant’s name. “Asterisk: took the easy route to a ring.” And no, LeBron James did not do theContinue Reading “The game.”
Today me and a friend of mine were planning our future. Both of ours consist of chasing money, success, and, best of all, fulfillment. I personally go through cycles of thinking that I have to “pay my dues” at a 9-to-5 and late thinking I’m supposed to create a schedule that allows me to do all my favoriteContinue Reading “Millennials v boomers.”
Joy is the phrase of the week. The thing that immediately grabbed me while reading The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up was the idea of keeping only the things that spark joy. We create vision boards to visualize our ideal life, but it’s a novel concept to make your life full of things that are ideal toContinue Reading “Joy.”
The thing that I immediately appreciated about The Secret is that it told you what the secret was in the first chapter. The secret is the law of attraction. The end. Yet, I kept reading. The Secret is unlike any other book I’ve read and I figure that may be because the movie came first.Continue Reading “The Secret.”
I made a vision board and right away there’s one thing I think you need to know. It took me more than eight fucking hours. Maybe I’m more picky and indecisive than others, but my cousin had the same problem. We were both flipping through magazines like, “hmm…where is what I need?” Magazines don’t haveContinue Reading “Vision board.”
One of the highlights of my week was meeting Dr. Michael Eric Dyson. As an author he goes by Michael Eric Dyson, but I emphasize the PhD 1) because it’s easy to forget and 2) because he made a joke that I found hilarious about being called n*gger and reminding the racist to call him Professor or Dr.Continue Reading “Meeting Dr. Michael Eric Dyson.”
I’m thinking about creating a bunch of posts of Things I Should Write a Book About. I get these wild ideas all the time, but then I’m never quite sure if they’re going to go anywhere so I let them sit and hope they grow, but then I just forget them. It’s basically like expectingContinue Reading “Small talk.”
There are two TV shows that have had a profound impact on my life. The first is Sailor Moon and the second is The Golden Girls. Sailor Moon taught me to be about romance and a love that transcends time, and it inspired me to draw and write. The Golden Girls taught me about everything elseContinue Reading “Thank you for being a friend.”
I’m becoming one of those new millennials who isn’t satisfied with text conversations. One of my friends used to tell me that there’s always something getting lost in translation, and she’s right. My tone, my indecisiveness, my intentions are all clouded by my text responses. The other day I tried to make plans with myContinue Reading “Why video messages are life.”
After two nights of partying into the wee hours of the morning, I felt like I needed to come back to myself. There are so many things that make me who I am, but there are specific things that center me and give me the feeling that my life is on track. I loved going out,Continue Reading “Defining myself.”
