I was inspired to write this poem a few months ago because I get scared very easily, and my friend and I were talking about how interesting it is that so many people are afraid of the dark… I’m 20 and I’m afraid of the dark. You’d think after all those horror films I’d getContinue reading “A Rational Fear”

Planes, Trains, and Amsterdam
So during my recent adventure my travel buddy and I ran into some problems when we moved to different countries. We created our own version of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Every time the two of us got ready to move to a new location something blew up in our faces causing us to stress aboutContinue reading “Planes, Trains, and Amsterdam”
A Midnight Starvation
Here’s another poem that I wrote while I was wwoofing in Ireland, feedback is always welcome! I’m so hungry The empty hole in my stomach gets bigger and bigger by the second leaving room for a starving swallow to create her nest. Carrying wood and sticks she carefully wraps their fingers together, creating a mazeContinue reading “A Midnight Starvation”
Natural Building, Glamping, and Normandy
Hello all, I really want to spread the word about this wonderful place that has come into being. When I was in Normandy, France last month I was staying with a friend of a friend who is creating his own sustainable homestead. He is turning his property into a place for campers and those whoContinue reading “Natural Building, Glamping, and Normandy”
Something new….
Hello again! I apologize for the large gap between my last post and this one, I’ve been quite busy with life. I recently just got back from a two month trip in Europe where I was wwoofing, adventuring, and meeting new people. I wanted to post some of the poetry that I wrote during thisContinue reading “Something new….”
The Rebound… but not really
I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that nearly every romantic comedy (conceived in Hollywood) has the same predictable formula. The protagonist is in love with his/her best friend or realizes that they are a quarter of the way through the film. The lovesick character struggles with these feelings until they can no longerContinue reading “The Rebound… but not really”
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky is quickly rising to become one of my favorite books. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an easy yet thought provoking read. I read it just as I was finishing high school, and found that it was fairly easy to relate to,Continue reading “The Perks of Being a Wallflower”
TED Talk: Fifty Shades of Gay
A friend of mine showed me this video recently which I found extremely inspiring, and I believe that everyone should see it because I think it will help minds to change. iO Tillett Wright is a photographer who decided to take photos of individuals in the U.S. who don’t consider themselves 100% straight. It seemsContinue reading “TED Talk: Fifty Shades of Gay”
The Piano Guys
So I’ve recently become obsessed with The Piano Guys (you can find their video’s on youtube), for those of you who don’t know them they are two musicians, one plays piano and the other cello. The two of them do beautiful classical renditions of popular songs, from What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction toContinue reading “The Piano Guys”
Snow White and the Huntsman…. A Review
Like many of my generation I have had to deal with Twilight fans, whether they’re the usual screaming middle school girls or the even more disturbing Twi-moms who drag their unhappy husbands to packed midnight premiers. I’ll admit, I read all of the books and saw four out of the five films in theaters. AtContinue reading “Snow White and the Huntsman…. A Review”
