How I Grew to Love Reading

I know it’s been forever since I’ve written something on here. I promise that will change, as I’m finally out of school. In the meantime, I think I want to take a look back at my relationship with reading for this post and share why it’s so special to me. Stories have become my comfort […]

Whiplash: The Dangers of the Pursuit of Perfection

I’ve been meaning to write something all week in honor of spring break, but I’ve also been sick throughout my time home. I finally started feeling somewhat back-to-normal three days ago and also have something that I really want to talk about before I lose time.

The World of Writing

So I’m off from school today because of the snowstorm hitting my area and I thought it’d be a good idea to take advantage of the free time I have to write something. I don’t know why, but I’ve been going through something of an inactive period with this blog. This is for a number […]

Why “Watership Down” Means so Much to Me

Trigger Warning: I feel that I need to put this up real quick before going on. This post to include a brief personal discussion of anxiety and some of its effects. If you have experienced symptoms of anxiety or any other mental health condition involving anxiety as a symptom itself, I feel you deserve to be made aware of this.  That said, here we go! Hm… I did this with Gravity Falls and you know what? It’s time to do it with my favorite novel, too. But, wait a minute! Can’t we just read your review of it to understand how you feel about it? Technically, yes. But […]

“Gravity Falls” Gets Me

THIS POST IS A REUPLOAD DUE TO A TECHNOLOGICAL ERROR ON THE ORIGINAL. So I know I haven’t posted in a while. Been going through something of a writer’s block lately in terms of this blog. Posts I thought I’d do ended up being cancelled, and I didn’t really have anything else in particular to talk […]

Passing Through

           What is it like to pass through the unknown?              Adam found himself reflecting on this question as he raced down the highway, fear raging in his chest. All around him, from every corner of the sky, lightning rained down in torrents, striking the ground every minute. The car was old […]
