Ars Poetica
Yo, poeta de oficio, condenada tantas veces a ser cuervo jamás me cambiaría por la Venus de Milo: mientras reina en el Louvre y se muere de tedio y junta polvo yo descubro el sol todos los días y entre valles volcanes y despojos de guerra avizoro la tierra prometida.

I’ve been receiving an overwhelming amount of encouragement the past couple days; people having known or not known about the stress that’s been attacking me throughout the past few weeks. I’m so thankful and happy almost to the point of tears. Knowing that I have friends who care so much has...

Well, honey, here’s the thing:
— Losing 5 (give or take) pounds within the course of 2 months is NOT unhealthy.
— Eating less junk food is NOT unhealthy.
— Cutting out soda and replacing it with green tea is NOT unhealthy.
— Going to the gym 5 times a week is NOT unhealthy.

Upon reading "The Raven" for the millionth time,...
The bird’s existence is nothing out of the ordinary. All of its actions can be explained through natural means. The eeriness and madness of the poem result merely and solely from the narrator’s own superstitions and, of course, his own human nature: his subconscious desire for and delight in self-torture.

"To You, my future is a memory."
Times like these when I’m so anxious for the future that I lapse into a state of the utmost nostalgia.
Growing up, I remember thinking that if I couldn’t be a Jedi warrior, I’d run off with my pet elephant, stumble upon a traveling circus, and make the most of my life from there. Prince Charming, perfect and pristine in every possible way, would come running across the...
