Social Media and Me, and Me, and Me.
I am not the biggest fan of the depersonalization that I go through as a byproduct of my anxiety. I often feel like I’m watching my life play out in front of me as if I’m not an active participant in it. I can become so distinctly separate from my own life that the ideaContinue reading “Social Media and Me, and Me, and Me.”
Self Defense, Slow Dancing, and Junior High
A Civilized Discussion of Irony Isn’t it ironic how Junior High physical education courses taught us such inconsistent lessons about autonomy over the physical self?

Things That I am Convinced of: Part 2
The fastest thing on Earth is my dog immediately after I ask what is in his mouth. Cold brew coffee should probably be renamed “cool beans”.

It’s Okay To Be Shy
I don’t think that shyness is as simple as just not saying a lot of things, but rather, I think that it’s a correlation of the fluctuation of one’s ability to say the things that they actually want to say.

Things That I am Convinced of
People who eat pizza crusts only do it so that there is no evidence of how much pizza they have actually consumed. Students talk about homework the same way I talk about dieting, they will literally do anything except put in the minimum amount of time and effort. This world doesn’t need a small amountContinue reading “Things That I am Convinced of”
