If I were to write a movie about myself, “Liability” by Lorde would be the song that plays when my character is introduced for the first time. The truth is I am a toy that people enjoy ‘Til all of the tricks don’t work anymore And then they are bored of me I am the type to stay away from… Read more →
Maybe my expectations were too high. Haim has released their latest album, Something To Tell You, and maybe my expectations were too high. I want to make it clear, I am not saying that the album is bad, because it definitely is not bad. The thing is, I’m not sure if I listened to 11 individual tracks or one long-running song. What… Read more →
The perfect POP EP has been created and we have Scott Hoying and Mitch Grassi to thank for it. Those two names may sound familiar and that would be because Scott Hoying and Mitch Grassi are part of the acapella super-group: Pentatonix.

Truly, I apologize for the somber posts; but the world is constantly overwhelming with its sadness and what kind of bubble would I be building here if I… Read more →
The world feels broken. Even at my happiest, I still feel an overwhelming feeling of sadness. Sometimes I struggle to pinpoint where the sadness is coming from but one scroll through the internet will bring forth the many possible reasons for my sadness. The world is overwhelming. I am empathetic to a fault. I read a news article and immediately… Read more →
What is the meaning of my life? I find myself constantly asking myself that question. Sometimes I can come up with beautiful and intellectual answers and sometimes I struggle to put a sentence together. Yet, one thing remains; I have always believed that I was put on this earth to make a difference. I’ve always had this strong feeling that… Read more →

Say you discover a song that is clearly about a relationship and yet somehow you find yourself turning into your new Life Anthem.

Maybe I have no idea what I’m doing in this life and maybe I’m completely okay with that. It took 27 years but I think I’m finally starting to feel comfortable in my skin.
