Do you ever feel like you're the type of person to hang onto the people your close friends have briefly dated even longer than your friend themself? LOL Well that's me. I get so overly invested in my friend's dating journeys and potential partners that the moment it does not work out, I'm not only just SHOOK but I also stay offended for my friend for a long time even when they have already move...

To this day I still don't really have the courage to go up to people I admire that I run into in real life. A part of me acknowledges that it's not just an overwhelming experience for me, but could also be potentially overwhelming to the person I run into, especially if all they wanted to do was enjoy their Sunday afternoon chilling LOL. If we're at an event where it may make sense to do so, su...

It's no secret that acne is one of the major sources of stress for many people. And the annoying thing is that even getting STRESSED about a new pimple, causes 10 billion new pimples. Honestly I think it's great that nowadays there are a lot more resources for acne sufferers, but when I was growing up, it always sounded like the cause of acne was from being dirty or eating like shit, which was ...

You know how when you're just existing, and you just google the symptoms, and all of a sudden the internet tells you you're dying? Well, that was no different when I first adopted my cats xD Since working from home spared my mind a lot of time to wander around the internet, every little thing the cats did always worried me because my brain just LOVES to go to the darkest places. If they breathe...

I'm sure we all get a little existential from time to time over the lingering thoughts of other's perceptions of ourselves, even when we were never in the wrong to begin with. But ultimately, I would rather be disliked for who I am rather than loved for who I'm not. (Disclaimer that this is not an excuse to do things to harm others under the excuse that "this is just how I am.")
Even thou...

Whenever I want to experiment with a new outfit, style, or anything, it’s always annoying how I have to consider what others or the world will think. Because people are naturally creatures of habit and routine, seeing a sudden change will usually evoke reactions like OMG GURL WHAT IS U DOING, WHO ARE YOU, WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MICHELLE AND WHERE DID YOU HIDE HER BODY?!?!!111
And while a ...

Last year when my parents left me after visiting for New Years, they said "You get older, but it never gets easier."
Also context for those who don't know my situation, I moved to California from New York 5 years ago, so I don't see my family very often!

A quote I heard that actually made me cry was: “In order to save each and every one of your beautiful organs, your body had no other way but to sacrifice a little piece of your skin / weight. Your body is sorry that this is the source of your suffering, but your life is precious.”
I’ve always found it sad, yet fascinating how despite how much someone goes through and achie...
In no way am I promoting this is right to do, but it’s an honest life experience I just wanna share about how we subconsciously project the bullying done to us onto others, until we become self aware enough to fix it. This was only one of the many life experiences where I was told I was too sensitive for feeling bad for a slug, and even back then, I used to cry over any dead animal I saw 😂...

One question that always pops up in my inbox or comments is "How do you find your style?" And after years of beating myself up for not having a "consistent style" or not having a "cool enough style," the question I'd rather ask is "How do you find your voice?"
For me finding my "voice" was kind of like figuring out the themes of my life moments, experiences, and finding a medium that coul...

Throughout my childhood and teen years my mom has been really overprotective of me having a “boyfriend.” It wasn’t really until recently that she has started to let me ride my bike of relationships without the training wheels on. Since I know my mom has went through her own character development with the thought of her daughter having a boyfriend, I...

One of my early annoyances in sixth grade (or the majority of the standardized education I personally went through) was the inability to self express. This actually happened to me multiple times afterwards with other teachers too. Looking back, I think it was super unnecessary and senseless for a teacher to publicly humiliate a student over their choice of a notebook / planner? Honestly I don't...

Quote by @l.e.bowman.poetry -- I think it is important that when we choose our partners, or any relationship in general, it's always good for both parties to stimulate each other's minds. To be honest, I can't really imagine myself being in a relationship where we don't talk about life, our ambitions, or grow together. This can go for friendships, family, or any other relationship too. 2019-08-21 22:06:14 +0000 UTC View Post
I will never forget how I was greeted on the school bus the first day of middle school -- it was the most sarcastic, insincere "celebration" ever. I always hated how there was a hierarchy of power based on your age, and for some reason that granted kids the right to pick on other kids. The moment I entered the bus, I remembered a bunch of eighth grade boys just yellin' "WELCOME TO SIXTH GRADE W...

I, like every other '90s kid, am a victim to nostalgia. Not just with the childhood shows, toys, and games, but with memories, people, and experiences. I used to hold onto relationships and friendships that were bad for me, using our memories and history as reasons to validate why I should still keep them. But that's how things turn toxic
Other than just bad relationships, I always tend t...

I am pretty damn grateful to have a group of friends that won't turn their backs on you, even after you open up about your insecurities. But of course, I wouldn't have found those friends without going through my fair round of "shitty" friends (should I even call them friends?).
I'm pretty sure we've all opened up to someone before, only to have that information you shared with them...

I have never bought anything from Lululemon, but I saw this quote on one of their shopping bags LOL. I feel like sometimes we underestimate the power of relaxation and taking a break. Sometimes we overwork ourselves and feel unproductive when we're not in our regular working routines. We forget that those intermissions of our day to days are actually where our inspiration and content comes from...

Bless my friend @camilocastro.art for sharing this quote with me because I think it's so damn true. I feel like a lot of us including myself are always in a rush to grow up, hurry onto the next chapter of our lives, or just instantly achieve our ultimate life goal. We forget to enjoy the process whether if it's about the small wins, or setbacks we face.
I feel like the world / society wil...

Lemme tell ya that a bish always got anxious about almost everything in life, especially throughout my teenage years. I was afraid of embarrassing things happening to me, what people thought of me, and therefore led me to being afraid to putting myself out there / getting out of my comfort zone.
