Relationship satire can be cathartic; when love hurts too much, just laugh.
High School Diaries: Chapter 3
Chapter 3: Matt As I walked through the gym doors, I saw the cute new girl from earlier today. The color of her hair reminded me of a peach, almost like a pinkish color, but it was more like just a light red. Haha, I’m not very good at english or anything, so I’m not very good at describing people in a good way. Her eyes were also really, really pretty. I couldn’t really tell if they were blue or green but it doesn’t matter. To be honest, I kind of wanted to talk to her more, but knowing that it's gym class, we’re probably going to do an activity and I’m willing to be that Anna (Was that her name? I don’t really remember.) wasn’t good at sports at all.

Was Mother Teresa Toxic?
If I put on a blue collared shirt with a badge on my chest and pistol on my waist, does that make me a cop? If I put on a Latrell Sprewell jersey and dribble a basketball, does that make me an NBA player? No, it makes me someone who likes to play dress-up. Does Mother Teresa putting on a white robe and a baggy hood make her a saint? Let's find out.

An Open Relationship With My Bodega Man
Am I dating my bodega man? He definitely knows more about me than anyone I've recently dated in the last couple of years. Not to say I'm not already an open book anyway, but we've seemed to break through the bodega exchange barrier.

The Pandemic Following on the Heels of COVID That Threatens Healthcare Workers and the Black Race: The Karen.
As COVID numbers spike, scientists have identified another potentially fatal risk to America’s healthcare workers and to Black Americans known as the Karen. The Karen belongs to its own unique viral family that surfaced around seventy years ago. Since that time, it has silently multiplied at exponential rates. The Karen is erratic, unpredictable, and favors no particular environment, making it impossible to know where it lies. DNA analysis demonstrates in infected hosts an over-expression of the proteins responsible for hate, ignorance, and moral turpitude. Though scientists are hopeful for the development of a vaccination to eradicate it, they surmise this will not occur any time soon.

UPS is NOT a Delivery Service
While sitting in class, the fluorescent lights overhead beat down on me making me more uncomfortable than I already am, considering I have to use the restroom very badly. Only minutes are left until class is over, but the ticking of the clock incessantly pounds into my head and drives me berserk while reminding me that he, the clock, is in control of time. Sometimes, I can see his menacing hands shaking their fist at me, mocking me, telling me that at any moment they can turn back time just to further irritate me. “Now next week class, we will begin the chapter on Civil War and discuss Bleeding Kansas...” the teacher explains preten- tiously, while my mind is obviously concentrated more on the civil war presently fighting inside of my bladder.

The Mattress
I had just graduated high school. I had just gotten breast implants just before graduation. I was starting college in the fall. I was 18 and damn well old enough. I was in love, you know 18-year old love - but for someone a decade older than me! I thought I was in love. I thought "love" was when you defied your parents. Found THE worst guy my mom could think of (yes, I regret this decision; hindsight is ALWAYS 20/20!). His name was Henri. Yes with an "I" and not a "Y". Long story short I was a naïve 18 year old. But who is truly "mature" by 18 and has it "all together" in life?

What's Up With that Finger Anyway?
I have never heard any discussions or theories so since it has been on my mind I am going to just put it out there. Do not ask me why I have questions such as this. It does not really even need an answer. It is just a minuscule view into the randomness that is nearly always in my brain; however, the wee hours of the morning randomness seems to run especially ramped. (say that three times fast =D )

Pedestrians Can Be Jerks When Crossing the Street
Sorry, but I have to get this off my chest. I hate it when people walk across the street and take their sweet time doing it. This trend only seems to persist in busy parts of big cities. I know that some of you are probably thinking bad of me, but this trend is too much! Really, these people cross the street all the time and hold up cars just because it's their right to cross the street.
