Live, Laugh, Let It Go
We all know that person. The one whose face is creased with laughter lines, whose hair bleached white and grey with the passing years. The one who cracks awkward jokes to strangers that make all those nearby groan. The one who is unphased by the wave after wave of cringeworthy moments that seem to make up the bulk of their twilight years. Perhaps you think it’s just that age.

Cursed!
Looking back, i started dating earlier than i should have, earlier than i wanted to and it got in the way of things that used to be important to me. I lost my virginity when i was 15 yrs young (thought i was so mature and grown up) and it was honestly one of the most horrible memories i have. It was with a skinny, tanned guy that i had chased for weeks and thought he was gorgeous. I remember thinking that if that’s what sex is, i never want to have sex again. HAHA ohhh the wisdom of a 15 yr old.

An Embarrassing Moment Turned Out Okay
As women we are taught that we can not fart in front of our loved ones. That we are not allowed to pass gas even though it is a very natural and healthy thing to do . It is something that every single person on this planet does. There is not one person that can say that they do not fart, not one person can say ,"oh I have never let out gas before. " That is a lie because if you are alive you have passed gas.

Love Me Like This
He’s sat across from me. Of course this is the expected thing to do. In times like these. Proper I think it’s called. Proper, or pleasant, and not overly forward, sure. But, how can it be? Now there’s only one thing to save me from undisturbed eye contact with this new and uncertain human: refuge in the glass of wine I will order to set between us.

The One with the Teacher Crush
I didn't expect to be unrelentingly enchanted by my professor. It just sort of happened. You simply start to develop this peculiar fascination with somebody. A sense of longing, almost like an addiction. You learn to enjoy their presence. To find their being there comforting and reassuring to you. I had never gotten up the courage to out myself as a lesbian before university. I definitely didn't plan on doing so in the middle of the classroom with a number of other individuals there with me, including the professor in question. No. This was most certainly not on the syllabus for those years at the university.

Lights On
Sophomore year of high school I had freshly joined the school's theater program, I was new to acting in front of an actual audience, but not acting in itself. We were on our last day of Hell Week, meaning we were running rehearsals from right after school till 9 pm.

Red Hat Society
I could tell you about all the clothes I have found through out the years of thrifting. The pieces that bring me most joy and fulfill an empowering walk within that day. I could also walk through my room remembering the stories behind each random thing, because quite frankly I don’t remember where I get somethings, unless I really think about it. Today I want to take you back to a few months ago when I seemed to binge purchase, things that seemly match a file in my brain.
