Gay men I am not your enemy
Last week I had an interesting text message come in from an old friends with benefits. Starting with the “Hey, I have an embarrassing favor to ask.” I was overwhelmed with an anxiety. Thinking it was one of those ‘you need to get tested’ type of messages. But no, it took an even worse turn.…
Life Update ?
My writing habit is like that of a recurring situationship. The frequency of when it comes is unhealthy but when it’s good it’s great! A lot has happened since entering the last stage of my middle 20’s. Can I say it’s been mostly good? If we discount the fact that I’m living under a falling…
Special.
Janet Jackson says “We all have a need to feel special. It’s this need that brings out the best in us yet the worst in us”. Ever since I heard those lines I’ve kept them close to my heart and carried them with me. Constantly aware of my need to feel seen and be special.…
Friends?
You would think at 26 I would have this friendship thing sorted out already…but alas I find it harder and harder to grasp. They never do prepare you for adult friendships and how to keep them. Or rather deal with them. I have made a lot of friends over the years but as I get…
I, Luna Angel
Sometimes I still get confused with what to write on here. I am a writer (saying this everyday so I can believe it) but I get so lost in the idea of what defines a writer that I refuse to accept that title for myself. It’s a crazy thing to realize because it should be…
Enough Romanticizing, this is my life
I live by the sentiment that you should live life like a TV Show. That everyday is an episode and every drastic life change is a new season. In doing so I have taken it to the extreme seeing myself in characters whose life has no basis in reality. I start to see myself in…
Dreaming is Dead.
One question that’s been at the top of my head everyday is, “Should I give up on my dreams?”. I don’t say this from a place of despondency. Well actually I guess I am, it is not because I don’t believe in myself. No quite the opposite, it is the world I do not have…
The Flop Era deserves more respect
Okay so confession. I prefer to listen to an artist’s flop era over their magnum opus, which is weird to a lot of people but I have good reasons. For one I do not view their work as a “flop” because art is not inherently good or bad. It is subjective and what one can…
Entry #4
I am pretty but I am ugly. I am an Adonis but I am a peasant. I am beauty incarnate but I am grotesque to the eye. Contradicting? Yes. But that is the reality of my experience in the dating world or lack thereof. In recent years I have been rejected more times than I…
Entry #5
I am not a loser. I am someone who has just lost and is currently at a loss. I recently lost my job. Sad, yes. However, not having to work for a racist boss is a blessing with other optics. Of course, I’m terrified about what’s going to happen to my future because in this…
Entry #7
Now, I will be the first one to admit that I am not the hardest worker in the room. I can and have the full capacity to be that person. But honestly, I’m just too moody. I am very much a person who has to be “in the mood” to do anything. It’s the reason…
