Linguistics
Most people I know now would be shocked to hear that I was one of those kids that just couldn’t sit still in preschool. I had gone to two different preschools – the first was when I was three, and because I was too rambunctious, a different one when I was four. Nothing truly changed… Continue reading

a short statement of gratitude.
Something peculiar happened today, about an hour ago, and that was that I drove past my elementary school and was filled with absolutely no dread at all – much of my high school years were filled with looking away when driving by my old elementary and middle school, and that’s gone!

Trashed Draft #3 | possible recycle
The weather was 18 degrees and the floor felt so chill to my face that it almost burned; my ears pressed against the wood that hummed from the washing machine tumbling in the basement. It was a muffled, encapsulating hum that overpowered the sounds that atmosphered the other ear. Dian, Rishi, and Cass had been… Continue reading

Horror & Stalking (not related)
Recently, I’ve found myself leaning into horror a bit more. I always found the genre a bit meaningless and uninteresting. Jumpscares and spooky things got me but I didn’t really believe in ghosts or religious exorcisms (religious horror movies were my most despised genre) and so I was never truly scared of them. However, I’ve… Continue reading
