in my mysterious era
in a little under three weeks, i’ll be moving into my dorms in los angeles and, even though i’ve lived 45 minutes out for a majority of my life, i feel as though my life is about to change. and, with any big change, i’ve cleaned up my socials and dirtied my room. i always…

on the couch
in a week, the rusty orange couch i’ve grown accustomed to will probably be moved out. if in-a-week me were writing this, she’d be on the cold hard wood, surrounded by boxes. in a week and two days, i’ll be home. the dry warmth of my suburb of los angeles around me. the city of…

a shitty boy poem
here’s a poem i found in my notebook… i no longer have feelings for either of these men so it’s quite funny to me. old and first you know my body familiar you know my heart knows to skip a beat you excite me with new experiences – how do you feel about me? sometimes…

finding my nest

a trip to the mfa
i never really talk about *boston* things that i do (mainly because i don’t want to be found), but around two months ago i went to the museum of fine arts with my little and it was one of my favorite days of the past semester, so i thought i’d commemorate it with pictures and…

you’ve read this post before
i always feel guilty coming back here every few months and promising to do better, to write more. don’t get me wrong, i love to write. heck, i added a writing (ish) major on top of my current one. but when school is going at 100 mph and i have a new job and i’m…

an ordinary extraordinary thing
i was reading poems about you to my best friend today. i cringed at the words i once associated with you. “it’s weird because i can’t remember feeling that way about him” she told me that even if you were ordinary or what we had was ordinary, you made me feel extraordinary things. that’s how…
