A Stream of Consciousness by Zach

Just a jumbled mess of words. Don't read into it.

A Stream of Consciousness by Zach

I'm going into this one blind. No idea what I want to write about so I just figured I'd let my fingers do what they're going to do and then publish the end result. Not sure what I'll get, could be a bunch of gibberish but honestly, I just want to find out what I'd write if I shut my brain off before I started typing. I could have written about my disability again but that's old news and I could have written about Trump and the Immigrant Ban but by the time this goes up, that'll hopefully be old news because lots, and I mean lots, of courts are already fighting it. Checks and Balances suck, don't they, Mr. President? I'm sick of hearing about Trump anyway, honestly.

So instead, I'll just ramble a bit. Hopefully, I'm going to end up writing something entertaining. I feel like a lot of what I write is kinda dull, honestly, just because I overthink things and censor myself too much to try to appease to everyone. I'm told I'm an entertaining person by a few people but I'm not inclined to believe them because if I'm going to be a writer, I have to hate everything I write. It's like a law or something.

The only exception I can think of off the top of my head is Stephen King. I love me some Stephen King, even the bad stuff, so maybe I should try to be more like him? I'm not completely sure, honestly. I do know that I need to relax a lot though, just let things happen. I do that in my day to day when I'm hanging out with friends so why can't I do it in a formal situation, right? I mean, I can't be TOO loose because you don't want me writing about fluids or anything too graphic or vulgar but you know what I mean. I feel like anyone who's reading this gets me enough to know what I'm trying to say. Sorry if you don't.

So....I saw Unbreakable today. Pretty good movie if I do say so myself. M. Night Shyamalanananananan before he went off the deep end. I'm starting to wonder if he did go off the deep end though, given what's been happening with his most recent film, Split. Maybe he had one huge plan in mind from Unbreakable on and made some bad movies on purpose. In fact, that would be a good idea for an article someday. I'll keep that one in the mental vault.

I'm at the point where I'm drawing a blank. My mind is officially exhausted. You didn't see this but I spent the last two minutes just staring at the white part of the text field trying to find the next few words I felt like spewing out onto the page. Spewing. Fluids. Woops. Sorry. I think I'm going to wrap this stupid little experiment up then. It might happen again, probably won't, I promise I'll write something substantial next article. Sorry about the infrequent articles as well. Bad habit I'm trying to kick. See you guys later.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
