Equality
Note: Inspired by a series of posts that my friend wrote, particularly this one. A lot of things have happened the past few weeks, yet at the same time, nothing much as happened at all. Regardless, I have come to learn a lot about myself–from introspection, from my peers, from my friends. I learn that […]
Numb
It’s been a while since I’ve felt a sense of numbing shame. It’s been a while since I’ve felt so uncertain about who I am, what I want, and what’s important. But I’ve recently learned that everything I’ve come to place in priority isn’t a priority. Not in the least bit. Grades. Finals. College. That’s […]

Dear Underclassman:

Labels
I always hesitate before complimenting people. It’s not because my compliments are fake (I find it pointless to make people feel good if I don’t mean it), but because I don’t know how the person would interpret my words. Would they take the compliment as insincere flattery? I don’t give compliments out too often, so […]
Lulz This Physics Test
First problem: “Oh hey, I know how to do this!” Second problem: “Okay…not too bad.” Third problem: “LALALALALA I DON’T KNOW WTF I’M DOING“
