As I glide through ginormous groups of girls I still chase after my thoughts. My mind ponders of the non-existent and of reality. In the woods, in my mind, I find myself content. As I collect my thoughts I thumb through them. Often times I question how inhumane

    Square one can be bliss for many of us. We recall all the memories that come out of it, the smiles, the laughter, and everything in between.

Yet, many of us do not even care about going back.…

    The norm may not always be the right way to go. I no longer want to be a part of a popular or important group of people, if I feel that what the group is doing or believes in is wrong, even if it means I'm not a part of the norm. I am not afraid to stand out on my own. I have challenged this belief for many years. When I was in elementary school, I was bullied by a group of girls that I hung with, looked up to and idolized.…

Not peculiar in a bad way, but in an interesting, provocative kind of way. I am the weird greenish-yellow crayon in the box that no one ever uses. I was born in Anchorage, Alaska.…
