My Top 5 of 2015

I have been seeing so many people say "Good Riddance" To 2015, and I have to share their same sentiment. I have loss so much this year. My experiences of life in just 2015 alone could fill a novel.

Save The Humans

By Guest Blogger: Jai Green Have you ever wondered what your purpose is in life? Not humans as a whole, but your individual purpose? I think about the person I am, my heart and how big it is, my ability to yield, my love for the human race, and I drop my head in tears.

Humans are the most intricate animate objects on earth, and good Read more [...]

Poetry on a Gloomy Saturday

Edgar Allan Poe has always been my favorite poet & one of my favorite writers. His darkness mirrored my own, his pain danced with my emotions. The way he loved held conversations with my heart. His work embodied all four literary conflicts, and sometimes all four were found in one piece: Man VS. Man, Man VS. Society, Man VS. Nature, and of course Man VS. Self. I hadn't written poetry in a while. Today my chest felt like it was going to explode if I didn't release some of these thoughts. So Read more [...]

Messy Girl Chronicles: Jackie Wright

National Fast Food Day

People started doing experiments on fast food such as the "Big Mac" 30 day challenge. No I'm not talking about eating it, I'm talking about leaving it out for 30 days to watch it decompose, if it decomposed. Read more [...]
