to never paying the bill to always having to look up to bras held by tiny hooks to pointy shoes in place of sneakers to “make me a sandwich” to dresses and having to cross legs to lipstick and blush to mask imperfections to pear shaped body to flowers and butterflies to chocolate being the cure-all solution, rather than words to the hours of managing hair that aren’t refundable...

“I contemplated photography for a while and ultimately decided that I should pursue something that - no offense, Meghan - can ultimately make a difference and do something for people” something like this was relayed to me upon coming home from my critique last night. I usually don’t let these sort of things get under my skin; “impractical” and “not a...

so today something strange happened to me.
I was walking to a meeting that I had at 8pm outside the dorms. I was already running a little late, but I slowed down when I heard some muffled, uneven, breaths; the kind of breaths you take when you’re crying but are trying to stifle your sadness. I turn around to see...

“M-Mitt!” Rick stuttered, “This is wrong… and we both have wives.” A soft blush spread across Rick’s face. Mitt’s hand gently caressed Rick’s cheek. They stared deeply into each other’s eyes.
