Do you ever find that you’re drawn to certain kinds of music, films, and foods when the weather starts to turn? And I’m not talking about commercially viable options, but the obscure memories you’ve cultivated because they remind you of specific feelings? I may have already written about this idea once this month, but September…
There was a time not too long ago when September would roll around and my thoughts turned towards school and a year full of promise. Ever the optimist, but a little slow on the realism, somehow every school year start felt like it was going to be the year that would make my life all the…
When I was a kid my siblings and I used to love running around the department store, hiding from our mom, pretending we were ninjas, royalty, spacemen, and all kinds of other imaginary characters. At the time, it made sense to shuffle through the crowd of shoppers and challenge our mother’s patience, but as we…
Our days our filled with observations and analysis. Whether it’s dealing with social hoops of family and friends, the inherent differences between the opposite sex or the tedium of the work week, we have to take in a ton of information and process it rather rapidly, so that we can then move onto the next…
I’m sure you’ve heard this expression once or twice before, dear readers, but I’m gonna throw it at you again, because it’s relevant for today’s topic. A lot can change in a month. You can be on top of the world one minute, and then you’re struggling for air the next. After all, nothing in…

I cannot believe that we’ve already gone through half of 2016, dear readers, so much has happened and so much has changed. I feel like Jay-Z in Change Clothes. You know I stay fresh to death, I’m gonna bring art through the mess of pop culture and to the top of the internet. So lets…
