Green

Hello there, it’s me again. I know we haven’t spoken in a minute. So what’s been going on since the last time we touched base? Well, we’ve been on lockdown for over a year now, but things are slowly starting to open up and get somewhat back to normal. Not much has changed since my […]

Um, yeah…

So here we go again, me starting off my latest post complaining about how I never post enough and yada yada. I find myself overthinking about what I want to write than actually writing. The struggle is not made up my friends! You would have thought that with this pandemic, I would be spending more […]

Fifty-One Forty-Nine

I’ve always told peeps that if at the end, my life ended up being comprised of 51 percent happy moments and 49 percent sad moments; I would still consider it a good life. It’s a pretty slim difference, but I still feel like the 2 percent is enough to tip the scale. This comes from […]

If

If there was ever a time to start this blog up again, it would probably be now. We’ve been on lockdown for the last month and a half and I can say that I’ve gotten pretty used to it since my regular life wasn’t much different (slower pace and more isolation). It wasn’t a total […]

Wednesday

It’s Wednesday night, the dreaded middle of the week. But since the day is almost over, we technically made it over the hump. I am typing this entry from the rooftop lounge of my building. It’s a bit chilly out, but it’s not too bad. I have the skyline behind me, and it makes it […]

Casa

The scene opens in the back seat of an uber. We see Oscar staring out the window in a pensive manner as he travels home. It is Sunday night at around 7pm and the traffic on the 10 freeway is flowing smoothly. His driver Walter isn’t much of talker and that is nice. There is […]

Kind

Over the last couple of years, the theme of self care has been getting more and more attention. People are starting to realize that they can’t be the best versions of themselves if they don’t actively and continuously take care of themselves. We’re so busy trying to get by and make a living (damn economy!) […]

WIP

You ever get tired of…yourself? And not in the emo sense, but more of the “I’m not who I need to be and I am tired of the person I currently am?” It comes down to a moment of realizing or admitting that you are not the best version of yourself and although you shouldn’t […]

Skin

Sorry to disappoint, but this isn’t a blog post about skin care…maybe some other time! This post is about skin though, but not in the literal sense. It’s about being comfortable in your own skin. It’s an ongoing process that has taken me the majority of my life. I grew up very shy and insecure […]

Decided

Now that you’re an adult, do you ever stop to think about how you came to believe some of the things you believe? And why you view things a certain way? Well, it all goes back to our childhoods and our upbringing. Our earliest influences were our parents and then our peers then the media […]
