Group Counselling, Day 3, Part I [Short Story – The Early Birds]

Part 3 of Group Counselling Day 2, Part 2 (Short Story) But this part can be read separately. 10:34 am, Saturday Morning, Counselling Building’s Lobby “…Yeah, I was diagnosed with clinical depression but I refused to take my medications.” “Really. Why?” “I’ve seen what those strong anti-depressants do to people. I rather be dead on my…

Group Counselling Day 2, Part 2 (Short Story)

Part 2 of Group Counselling Day 2, Part 1 (Short Story) This part can be read by seperately. “And the teams are: Daren, Feng & Elisa Megan, Rosie, & Rylan Malik, Apex, & Marla Jaxon, Adelaide, & Cora.” Cora had a smirk on her bronze face. It was fixed, vengeful, and shamelessly, aimed at Jaxon. 

A LOVE FOR HAUNTED (DEEP) MUSIC

If I was a singer I think my music style would be similar to the likes of Lorde, Birdy, Tinashe, Sevdaliza, Oh Wonder, Gallant, Tsar B, Lana Del Rey, Frank Ocean, and SZA (if you don’t know any one of these musical artists, I encourage you to search them up). Basically, if I was a singer, my…

Toxic Games (Short Story)

The August heat had willed Joshua to tie his hair into a poorly structured man-bun, willed his fair face to be laced with sweat, willed his fairly slim build to be dressed in a white tank top and knee-length cargo. While Genet’s shoulder-length hair retained its curls, her bronze face shined, and her favorite summer…

Raw Artistry (Celebrating Various Spontaneous / Imperfect Art Forms!)

  “That rawness, it seems to be looked for in all aspects of life.” I wrote this in my free-writing book three years ago, and I keep going back to the word… “Raw, adjective, (of an emotion or quality) strong and undisguised” 

The Art of Daydreaming (Pros & Cons)

My most interesting moments often takes place in my head. I believe it’s because of how reactive the combination of creativity and introversion truly is (yes, I just compared human traits to chemical reactions, deal with it 😝).
