I’ve been home for a month now, and I have finally completed my second round of vacation book reviews! If you want to read part one, click here. My second round of vacation books were little bit denser, and as such, I made my way through them at a much slower pace. And then, of […]
Vacation Book Reviews: Part One
I haven’t read a full book that wasn’t for school (let’s be real, I haven’t even read a full book for school) since the last time I was on vacation. I used to be the biggest book worm- one of my mom’s favourite stories to tell is when she came to pick me up from […]
Thank u, next
I didn’t do a Year in Review type post last year because I was a mess. 2017 was probably the worst year of my life, and I didn’t have much by way of expectations for 2018. It wasn’t the best year, in fact, it kind of kicked my ass. I’m tired, but unlike last year […]
Please Like Me
Someone honked at me in traffic because I didn’t slow down so that they could enter my lane. They didn’t need to be in my lane. Their lane was not closed, there were no police pulled over or trees in the way. They wanted to be, and they expected me to be accommodating. That’s not […]

Okay, so here’s the thing. How do I get my mojo back? I used to love writing but now it’s almost more exhausting than homework. Where did the little spark go? I used to worry that the stuff that I wrote about had an expiration date. I like to think I am pretty funny when […]
The Dark Hole
I’m lying on the floor of the yoga studio. The endorphins pulse through me and I feel a sweet sense of calm that I haven’t felt in weeks. I glance up toward the window and see a patch of bright blue sky, completely unadulterated by clouds. “See?” I tell myself, “This is what happens when […]
The creative’s dilemma
I am a chronic project-starter. I have dozens of short stories, songs, poems, conceptual art pieces written out, partially formed as ideas, which were then promptly abandoned. When I was in high school I wanted to create a “zine” and so sent out a call to all of my friends for their artwork, photography, poems, […]

Blog-WHAT?
Great news! If you’ve long desired to hear me speak… now you can! I’m the guest on the latest episode of Broad-WHAT? with Ryan Nunez. It was fantastic to sit down and talk with Ryan about some of the things I talk about on my blog, as well as my history with theatre, and a […]
A love story.
When I’m in a rough place in my life, I tend to cry, way too hard for the given circumstances, when I say goodbye to my friends. I could be seeing the person the next day, and I would still cry. I remember a year ago, I was leaving my friend’s birthday party, and when […]
