Happy New Year Tumblr
I’m a bit early, but happy new year tumblr. I’m happy to say I made it, we all made it. I look forward to the new year, and all the great opportunities and possibilities it will bring. Mainly graduation—I can’t believe this year is finally here for me, it’s nerve-racking as it is exciting. I’ll be spending tonight inside, with a few close friends. I hope you all...

Upcoming Exhibitions
I have two exhibitions coming up that I’ll be showing work in… One on January 4th and the other on January 14th. The one on January 8th will be in the DMV, and the other on the 14th will be in NYC. I’m excited for both, I’ll be picking up frames for some paintings tomorrow. I think I’ll hand-make some guest-books or something to go along with each. I will keep you...

Hold, still
There was always one sock missing it’s matching other, and when I was smaller I hid under my covers. I was afraid of silly things back then—like the dark, like the interruptions of sentences leading to: “I must go nows…” Oh how I frowned, and I still do now, when things feel out of place. When the ticks and tocks have quickened their pace, and Father Time’s...

I’m applying to more internships today, and inquiring about how I can reach some child psychology clientele. I feel like the waiting is the worst part of this whole process… waiting to hear from them, waiting to hear anything at all. It makes me nervous, it makes me anxious… I hope with the new year to come, I get one—a really helpful one, one that will help me grow and...

Little Wing
Little Wing, I heard Jimi sing.
The sunshine to my rain clouds you bring,
all those wonderful joyous things.
Butterflies, and Zebras, and Moonbeams,
you fly sky high with those unfolding wings.
Fly on, little wing…rang my heart,
oh how it sang.

Reconstructing Constructs
ohmyearth:
It was like air that was afraid to leave my lips so it filled my lungs that’s what love felt like, like a reminder to feel the sun, like feeling like the sun underneath your hands you built your castle of sand you built things, had a builder’s hands.

Happy Holidays Tumblr
To all those who celebrate, or even if today was just another Sunday for you—I hope it was a good one. I spent today sleeping in my christmas pajamas, curled up with my animals. Santa came by and brought me some really nice things, and I’m still in the process of making gifts myself… I can’t wait to give them to the people I love, that’s the best gift for me during...

December →
December feels like my lungs are perpetually inhaling. Soon, I will hold so many armfuls of wind that my feet will dig into the earth. It has slipped past so quickly that I have not had enough time to rest for the year. Another summer is spent in a nowhere place. I am another person this month. Somewhere along the way, I have lost an imperative clue. It’s hard to hold everything in your head and...

I'm scared too
Here it is going on 1 a.m. and my chest still burns, so perhaps I should let some things off of it. I guess I’ll tell them, what I told you… That yes, I am scared too. I’m afraid for what the future holds, for everything I do not understand, and for the things that feel out of my control. I guess I don’t like being home so much anymore because it gives me too much time to...
