I am currently sitting in my dorm room, and I have no idea what to do. I could socialize, but I’m sick which means I am not in the mood to talk to other people (first world problems). Maybe I will just nap or read. Oh well. This is college.

I guess it’s time to stop living my life for someone else. I don’t care if they’ll reject me, disown me, hate me. There comes a time when I need to consider what is best for me, and not what is best for someone else. I can no longer sacrifice my happiness for someone who belittles me in the end. I can longer let myself break. It’s time to grow up and stand up for myself. I...

autopsygarland: the sad truth is most of us don’t treat people the way we want to be treated, we treat people the way we have been treated.

I really need some new music to listen to. Preferably something chill, something relaxing, something with really great lyrics and a really great sound. I feel like I’ve exhausted my music library. Any suggestions?

I am a bag of bones put together sloppily with Elmer’s glue. I am a first grader’s science fair project, I am a good attempt with a bad presentation. Do you see how I wobble, do you see how I break, do you see how the glue is showing in some parts, do you see. There’s something that hurts inside of me, it hurts more than anything. It’s in there somewhere, it starts at the...

the poet inside of me has died out with a lot of other things. i used to string together phrases, words, metaphors into stanzas, into meaningful prose, but now i just stare at the world and it stares back at me. i used to stare into the bland lives of thousands, into the lives of inanimate objects sitting out to collect dust and fingerprints and dirt, and in return i received a colorful...

I love foreign languages. I love the intimacy of new words, new sounds, new structures. The way it forces you to actually think about your words, to choose from the narrow vocabulary you have acquired, to actually delve into language itself instead of numbly stringing words together to communicate a shallow thought. When I use my native language, I don’t take a minute to evaluate what...

We sat at the kitchen table eating our Chinese takeout with cheap, wooden chopsticks. My brother was demanding help on a poem for his seventh grade English class, my mother was in the kitchen making sarcastic commentary and blasting ‘inspiring’ music, and my dad was in the living room yelling at the Braves game. And we sat at the table, laid back and comfortable, smiling and laughing...

There are some things that make me extremely emotional, no matter how ridiculous they are. I’ll think about them, things from the past or things from the now, and a wound opens up in me, and everything I’ve kept inside pours out in forms of angry words and tears.  My insecurities are at the root of everything.

Valerie May Ancheta,
You are truly one of the greatest friends I have. I can’t believe we’ve known each other since we were freshman, but literally every year since we first met has been wonderful. I’m so thankful to have you in my life, and I’m excited to make our phone dates ACTUAL dates when I move back to Minnesota. You’ve been the most consistent friend despite all that has changed,...

opinion of the day
If you use profanity, that’s fine. I could care less if you toss around a few curse words, and I understand that sometimes in writing or when trying to make a point, those words add a whole new level of emphasis. I get it. However, when you start using them EVERY OTHER WORD along with a variety of crude phrases, you start to lose credibility. I passed a post on tumblr that was basically...

Life is not ideal today.
Yes, I have been in bed all day. Yes, I am not the most emotionally stable at the current moment. But productivity has always been a kind of medicine for me. So I am going to get out of bed, read a book, art journal, listen to music and stop mindlessly scrolling through tumblr in order to distract myself from life. I resort to curling up in bed too much, and it does nothing but instill an...

political opinion of the day
The first thing I do when wake is up read through the news, either on Yahoo or on the BBC, and often I do research on what I find because of curiosity or lack of knowledge on the subject. I was reading an article on the 2012 elections which talked about possible candidates and results. I remembered my parents (very, very, very Christian Republicans) praising and hoping for Herman Cain to be come...

There are so many different things I want to write right now, but I don’t know how to word them. I don’t know. There are some emotions and some memories that I cannot write about without spoiling them, tainting them with the mediocrity and limitations of language. There’s a language that runs much deeper than what is audible, and there are words that can only be heard and seen in...

Every John Green novel ever.
quicksummary: A geeky boy falls in love with a hurricane girl he can’t have, and then he gets her in the end after some low-key pseudo-philosophical revelations.  As much as I like quicksummary and find it extremely hilarious, I will have to entirely disagree with this statement. This description only thoroughly pertains to An Abundance of Katherines. Maybe I am biased because my love for John...

I’m sorting through all of my clothes before I head off to college, and it’s kind of funny how much nostalgia a simple shirt or an old pair of jeans can bring. Clothes from years and years ago that I have washed, folded, worn, wrinkled—now sprawled lifeless in my lap. I remember finding one shirt, bright yellow with a cute and humorous design, with my mother: we pulled it down...
