Christmas

It’s about love. I’m upstairs, listening to music, mooning over my beautiful new Kindle Fire, and completely in love. Because that’s what Christmas is about, along with Jesus, of course. My family is amazing. We spent the morning as we always do: stockings, presents, eggs benedict. And there’s nothing better in the world, I think, [...]

The Queen of Spain

I read your post. And I want you to know that you are beautiful, so beautiful. You bought me my sparkle picture. And everytime I look at it, I feel strong, really strong, because you are. I always say, “Hey look! It’s the queenofspain! I love that woman!” Mommy always asks why. It took me [...]

Make A Choice

I had two posts in mind for tonight. One was to be named “After”. It was going to be about our second performance, which was lovely. And it was going to be about the acting still involved afterwards. I was going to talk about how when Dad, or Mother, or our director greeted one of [...]

Bio

I have an about page, of course. And my about page has barely changed over the years, save for my age, which was, for a very long time, still 13, until, at 15, I decided I had aged a year, and made it 14. But let me try again, because I feel like things change, [...]

Sixteen

My Mommy called me a fire opal. My daddy took me to New Orleans. I cried for my mommy and I wrote all through math about NO for my daddy. I could write here for hours, let words fall into poetry, or stuff them into labored sentences to try and describe how I feel: recovering [...]

Three Questions: What do you Love? What Do you Fear? What Do You Want?

Inspired by Rebecca Kling’s Three Questions on Blogher, I’m writing this post. 1. What do you love? I love Piven. I love the feeling that I’m changing things with my words, that the clearly defined line between mind and body are blurring, and power emerges from the tearing out of that cocoon. I love that, [...]

Youth

I like to read through my blog archives. Call it narcissistic, or whatever pleases you, but I do. And, as I read, I get…nostalgic. Because I remember when I blogged every day, lots, just because I loved it. It made me happy to write about everything. Back then, when I would set my fingers to [...]

Super Crazy Awesome (In other words, how I’d Describe Piver Theatre Workshop)

Piven is one of my favorite places to be. Sometimes I feel like I bury real me and put on a hard candy coating to protect me from and endear me to the outside world. It keeps ME in a bubble, a safe, invulnerable bubble, but also keeps the sunshine out, only the barest hint [...]

This Is Wrong

Let me explain something. My school is huge. Around 4000 total students in all. We are diverse. We are varied. We are a community where there is something for everyone, at least a few people who care about what you do, believe in what you do. Everyone has a passion, and everyone has someone with [...]

Variables

Today, in chemistry, we did an experiment. Not unusual, seeing as it was chemistry. But there were too many variables, too much margin for error. I saw it all play out, watched my experiment take place and all I could think of was: “what is wrong with this?”. I wondered about contamination of my petri [...]
