Mind.

“The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma” – Patrick Star In a way, I resonate with my good friend Patrick Star. My train of thought never stops. There are no stations, no crossings or anything. Once you’re on, you can’t hop off and worst of all: You’ve tapped on your Myki and there’s […]

Fictional Masquerades.

I find myself wanting to be other people a lot. And not as in I’m jealous of my peers, as a matter of fact that comes into play differently. No, I prefer to make up characters in my head and put them in scenarios with my peers. Such as school, parties and other social performances. […]

Procrastination.

I wish I could tell teachers that I choose to spend my limited time here on our little floating rock in space with my friends instead of doing homework because, let’s be honest, I’m not going to look back on my existence and fondly remember that geography assignment from 2018.

All-Stars.

I see a lot of my friends the same way I see stars. And I don’t mean people like George Clooney, I mean real actual stars.

The Fall.

I had this nightmare not long ago, and sometimes it makes it’s way into my imagination during the day. As such, I thought I’d find some comfort in putting it into words so that I can get a better grasp on it. It starts with me standing out near the front of the school, […]

I can stay up for hours at a time, watching youtube, answering snapchats and scrolling through instagram despite taking little to no interest in […]

Slow Dancing With The Stars.

every now and then when it’s 1:00 AM and my eyes start growing weary with futile hopes of rest, I get up from my desk, close my laptop, open my blinds and sit on my couch facing the window. It might not sound particularly exciting, but dragging my eyes away from the constant action on […]

nobody

i’m lovesick again. and there’s and emphasis on the ‘sick’ i have this inhumane quota of satisfaction i need to fill with other people’s infatuations and i’m sorry. i’m making my words big on purpose so i don’t go toe-to-toe with the burning truth. i’m so fucking lonely and i just want someone […]

Be Yourself. But Don’t.

We’ve all been told to “be ourselves” Whether it’s for a job interview, a first impression with a mutual friend, or even asking out a potential significant other. But we never really do it, do we? We act extra sycophantic for our job interviews. We stay light in our humour towards mutual friends. And we […]
