I knew the routine. Even before I knew me. When Dad was happy, we were happy. When Dad was not happy, we dare not be happy. We were to stay far away. Far, far away from him. I knew the routine. The happy

I think the only reason I’m writing this is because I’m currently listening to some jams from the new earpods I got. And it’s giving me a soundgasm, to say the very least. There’s nothing as amazing as

Nothing more enlightening than enlightenment. Is that weird? Certainly felt like that typing it, but that’s exactly how I feel. Over the last week I’ve had to ask myself questions, and while I would not

Okayyy, so I’m beyond glad that I’m finally able to talk about this film. It’s been a hot topic since it was released, with so many takes. Assenting, dissenting, critical, right out condemnatory, and all

I attach a lot of sentimental value to gifts. I love the idea behind gifts, and the thoughts that I know goes into gifting. I like that a person stopped to say, “This looks like something Tessa would like.

I have been running around in circles on what to post, and what to say. I’m at crossroads between doing things because they are right, and what I need to do, doing things because that’s what I want to

If you were asked to mention a book you wish to read all over again like it were the first time, what book would you pick? I’m sure if I were asked that question, I’d need like a few minutes to think and

My heart thumped fast I made my way out of the changing room. I jumped up and down and tried to take steady breaths. I was sure the next person could hear the epileptic beating of my heart, but I couldn’t

I’ve become increasingly wary of live actions, and for good reason because Disney in the last few years have ruined a lot of cult classics for me. I would say Snow White broke my heart or disappointed

I never knew what it meant to wake up to good news. To have people wake you up to tell you. “Congratulations! Have you heard the good news?” I’m going to find that post and link it here where I talked

Everything starts from a perspective, I should say. Seeing how far I’ve come now, and how different my views are, it’s almost shameful for me to admit that growing up, I was one of those girls who hated

One of the most challenging things I believe anyone can face while adopting a minimalist lifestyle is with friendships. It’s hard because on a normal day, you are facing a lot of challenges with friends,
