It all started one evening on my birth week in December. I was hanging out with my friends Jacob and Olivia, when we got into a discussion of what the worst possible Christmas gift would be. I suggested an edible arrangement, since no one really wants to eat a days-old, mail ordered chocolate covered cantaloupe. […]
This week has been so busy for me. I meant to blog earlier in the week so I wouldn’t have to do it today, but I just finished up working a seasonal job which is transitioning into another part time job. I’ve adapted this mentality to enter into the workplace each day with a huge, […]
Happy Friday! And also, happy holidays! Whatever you celebrate towards the end of the year, I hope you are celebrating it with the people you love. Every year, my family asks me what I want, and I give them a spread sheet of the things I need. Not to support consumerism or anything, I just […]

Every time I sit down with my family at the Thanksgiving dinner table, I always start eating, but they go; wait we gotta say what we’re thankful for, and then some people go; no, we don’t, and then we […]
It’s true; after you read, you need to write. I just finished Men Without Women by Haruki Murakami. It’s a collection of short stories revolving around men with abstract situations in which they find themselves alone. What I love about this author, is that his plots unravel through the odd quirks people’s lives, and makes […]
