Have you had your L.O.L for the day? It's no secret that Valentine's day is coming up. The national single awareness, cheesy chick flicks on Hallmark channel, and eat your emotions on overpriced chocolate day as I like to call it. Even though I say these things, it is still my favorite pagen holiday! I… Continue reading L.O.L.

Dear Teacher, Please Let Me Be Creative
Adult coloring books are "the thing" right now. For Chanukah my mother gave me one of these. Now my mother NEVER let me have a coloring book growing up and so this was the first one I have ever owned. Because I have "learning disabilities" my brain simply gets tired faster then most other people's… Continue reading Dear Teacher, Please Let Me Be Creative

Dear Bully — An Open Letter
Dear Bully, how are you doing? I want to thank you. Thank you, my dear, for helping me become a strong person, for pointing out my best and worst personality and physical traits to me.

Community
Community, does it exist in this modern age? I live in the suburbs of a small? but spread out city. I love my current location, but I would be willing to move to a big city in a heartbeat. When I go into the tiny town where my school is located, the sense of small… Continue reading Community

Gasp! And no, I'm not making a pregnancy announcement. I love others! G-d has given me a heart… Continue reading Baby, It Says It’s Positive

High school basketball. A social event that is dear to many but not me. Last night I went to my first home basketball game of the year with a friend. I was excited to watch one of my friends on the other team play. The friend whom I went with and I both agreed that… Continue reading Three Pointers

In my personal life, I see more teenage boys worried about this phrase then young ladies, but young ladies are concerned about this, too. More and more I am seeing… Continue reading “Forever Alone”
Little Boys Who Play With Fire Will Get Their Hands Burned
Bright, warm, smells great, you can get close, but if you touch it, it will hurt you. Any guesses? Yankee Candles are wonderful. To me, something is comforting about walking into a home that has that amazing smell of a candle burning. In a way a candle being lit can resemble sin and the consequences… Continue reading Little Boys Who Play With Fire Will Get Their Hands Burned
The ABILITY in disABILITY
Not every disabilities are visible. I strongly believe that you have no idea what may be going on in anyone else's life until you have spent a week in their shoes walking the trail they are on. As I have written about before, I have dyslexia. I didn't have the choice to have it, but… Continue reading The ABILITY in disABILITY
