okay, so i am going to preface this post by saying that the event i will be describing did not come as a shock to me or my brothers. the purpose is to possibly get some advice or hear some stories from those of you who have gone through a similar situation. with that being said, my parents told me…

i am. we are. not weak
the other day, i sat in my room with a friend who was completely and utterly distraught. it was his first time letting his guard down and opening up to someone. while this wasn’t the first time someone was vulnerable with me, it was different than the other times because our histories are so unalike. i listened and empathized (which…

i am. lovin’ it
are you ever singing along to bop & realize that what you just screamed at the top of your lungs makes literally no sense. this inspired me to come up with a list of 5 of the weirdest song lyrics: 1. “im too sexy for my shirt, so sexy that it hurts” -right said fred, im too sexy2. “she got…

i am. no longer judging
yesterday, i attended the infamous hashbash & was completely sober. as awful as that may sound, it was actually pretty dang great. i felt zero pressure to do anything out of my comfort zone and i got to do some of the best people watching i’ve ever done (second only to a saturday night in amsterdam’s red light district and…

i am. true to myself
the other day, tinder sent me an email asking if i would promote their app in exchange for $350. one simple post would buy me over 70 lattes! & as crazy as it sounds, i just couldn’t bring myself to do it. not that there’s anything wrong with tinder, it just ain’t for me. as many of you know, promotion…

i am. soaking it in
the other day i was lying in bed, bored, scrolling through my camera roll. there were pictures from prom, europe, mexico, tailgates, family gatherings, and lots and lots of good food i once stuffed my face with. these were all highlights of my life. & i hope i appreciated these moments while i was living them. i hope i enjoyed…

i am. sad
no one ever tells you how awful it feels to lose a friend because you don’t share the same feelings. i started my friday crying in the shower, after waking up to some pretty terrible text messages. the gist was that i was fake and led this guy on. unfortunately, he isn’t the first pissed off guy that has accused…

i am. rarely bored
okay, i know there are lots of lists suggesting things to do when you’re bored, but many are kinda bland. like, take a bike ride, fly a kite, or visit a museum. sure they may be fun, but only once or twice. i live in a fairly slow placed community (known for little kids and old people), so i’ve done…

i am. waiting
re-bound/ˈrēˌbound(noun)the kind of relationship that’s simply happening in order to get over one that recently ended. so i asked you guys the other day if you’d willingly start up a relationship with someone who just got out of one and, to my surprise, more than half of you said that you would. from my experience, this. is. not. a. move.…
