Honestly, with the planets in retrograde, I don’t know if it’s stress of school or what that’s making me write, but I’m going to get it out anyway, for the sake of my mental health. I grew up with mostly my mom’s family, and they are mostly of Indian descent. My mom had me, and […]

(n.) the heart wrenching pain of wanting the affection of someone unattainable

Mindset, Mindset, Mindset. [Pt. 1]
Recently, I’ve been going through a depressive episode. There I said it. My first step in going anywhere – whether it be up or down – was admitting that to myself. For an entire semester, I’ve been wondering if everything I’m going through is really worth it and if truly, at the end of this […]

Is Happiness a Thing?
In all honesty, I didn’t create this blog expecting an audience. I created it because I wanted it to be an outlet for the thoughts which often crowded my head, threatening to explode my brain. I wanted it to be like screaming into a canyon I suppose, where there was no one around and my […]
