Where we last left off Your favorite show was Hannah Montana And you considered chicken fingers and French fries to be the only existing foods. You tried every sport, But nothing really stuck.

The Art of Stargazing

It’s half past midnight when my best friend and I make our way to the beach and settle next to each other in the sand. To me, stargazing is the antithesis of anxiety. I’ve spent hours rewriting a single sentence. As a little kid, making a birthday card was an environmental hazard. I would remake […]
