As much as I love being on the internet and using it to talk with my friends and interact with other people, I wish we would realize that it's not the same as actually sitting with someone and conversing, out loud flesh to flesh.

Sitting with the thoughts of all the experiences that have formed the person I am today, my thoughts and behaviours, how I ha... » Continue Reading
Missed day 2 oops ! Anyways enjoying these April showers because I know they will be bringing May flowers. I am reminded that even though I'm wet and cold, even though I'm feeling down and unsure of myself, at some point the sun will come out again and I'll be warm and happy and most importantly, I'll be free. » Continue Reading
Hi all ! So happy to be here and have a space to share my thoughts and create even more of a digital footprint. I am excited to use this space but am once again confronted with the all consuming pressure to express my identity, I love being able to present my interests in a physical way but then I have to decide how to do it which is difficult for me. Hopefully I can use this blog to write and co... » Continue Reading
