As the snow fell from the sky

They all shouted with joy,

Running outside, passing me by.


I stayed by the window,

Looking out at the hills and the trees,

All covered in snow.


I could see my breath in the air.

The frost began to frame the glass,

But still I remained there.


For with all the joy that winter gave,

In it rests my isolation within the storm.

This heart of mine, I tried to save.


For all the warmth that I possessed

She took from me as she left.

Cursed be my heart of a love ne'er confessed.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
