Happy Quanahanamas!!!

As Hanukah rolls around and so does Christmas and Quanza, I just want to tell ya'll to have an awesome fabulous time and remember what is really important.  Today there are so many mentions of "buy this and you will feel amazing," "your kid will love you," "you will get promoted," "you will become 20% happier." Once you have fallen into these traps you spend more time buying the thing that will make something happen rather than doing that thing yourself. Some people believe that if you give a lover a ring that they will become close and fall deeper in love with that person. Sure, that is a really caring thing to do but it is the thought that counts. If you want to get closer to a loved one then spend time with them and if you see something they'd appreciate at a store then by golly if you want, get it for them. Shopping isn't evil. It can be great to look at all of the new inventions people make or support an artist in Thailand with their earring business. But don’t rely on that item to make your relationship. It is all about priorities. If you really want to get close to someone the best thing you can do is spend time with them. Ask them questions. Listen. Don't buy a ring to get close, get close to get close. We don't have to jump through all of these materialistic hoops to get to what we want. No, we just have to do our best and know that whatever happens was meant to be.  The holidays can be spent laughing and listening and sharing with your family. And that is what I think they are all about.

Nine months later I emerge with the hopes of being vaccinated soon. FUcking hell. What a trip. This pandemic is going to require a lot of processing in the future but for now, I want to share and record some things I am very proud that I accomplished over this period of time. I was able to help start and run a campaign to eventually get my high school drama teacher who spread the rumor that I called the cops at a cast party which ruined my social life at that school while stalking me and my friends and constantly trying to get me in compromising and damn disgusting and gross situations. His charm to his superiors and the gaslighting and abuse of students has been heavily weighing on me in a way I have yet to fully deal with. I spoke out in high school and was silenced, threatened, and made to feel unwelcome. Yet the internet and living in a whole separate continent does wonders for confidence. I helped create a petition, gathered testimonies, and launched this campaign with my friends

Rainy Night Writing

There is something quite different about writing when it is raining outside than when it isn't. I despise my frozen toes and fingers, yet I love drinking chocolate almond milk with banana bread. It seems almost enchanting, like creativity is plopping on your rooftop. Writing in the rain, so odd. Writing in the rain It is like laughing during a thunder cloud, in perfect harmony with nature, rhyming and paralleling the weather, writing in the rain, creativity pours from you, as you hear the pitter patter, you wonder where the drops will all go, writing in the rain, a clean slate to begin again, a downpour of ideas, soon to come again, I love writing in the rain.
