OPEN LETTER TO MEAN GIRLS AROUND THE WORLD

mean girls

Mean girls listen up.

You’re mean.

Not mean in the sense that you have resting bitch face, until you’re approached and your charm is turned on. Or even the mean like the person who’s apprehensive of others before someone begins speaking to them.

No, you’re just mean and this open letter is for you. Continue Reading

I don’t know about y’all, but the start of my Monday was pretty eventful to say the least. For one, I drove to school with little to no gas in my car. Living on the wild side never felt scarier by the way. Two, at some point my windshield wipers came on (it was not raining), and I’m not sure how long they were on before I realized it lols. After staying up till the wee hours of the morning finishing group projects and trying to get my life together, the way my morning began is just par the course. However, I will say that after using my favorite moisturizer from Sephora, leaving my apartment never felt easier.  Continue Reading

Honestly this world is breaking my heart.

I don’t understand why we have become a nation who views violence as a problem solver as opposed to peace and love. Why is that what this world has become? Continue Reading
