Being twenty-years-old, moving to a new state, living with a new family and changing my major are a few of the circumstances I have undertaken this past year. In this time of instability, confusion, and uncomfortability is when one truly finds oneself, values, and life. Going to college at eighteen is a huge transition in… Continue reading The Self- Discoverance Manifesto
Ekphrasis
Sometimes running away is the easiest thing to do. Looking back though you cannot help but see the little house you grew up in. The plot of land you would play with your siblings. That has all changed now and is not the same that I remembered. Its not so playful as my childhood once… Continue reading Ekphrasis
AS SEEN ON TV
The illusion, the sounds, the ART. What craziness have you seen today? While seeing Peter Campus’s, “Three Transitions”, it’s like none I have ever seen before. It almost seems like Campus is trying to pull off a top-notch illusion as he wipes away his face to have it reappear and as he sticks his head… Continue reading AS SEEN ON TV
ACT 4, SCENE 7
In high school I read hamlet and I found it very intriguing, but I was still interested to reread it four years later to see if my perspective has changed.

I talked it over with her and we decided I would purchase the tickets and she would pay me back. I searched and searched all over for these tickets due to the… Continue reading Showtime Fiasco
poetry
The poem that I chose to write about is titled “The Turtle Came to See me” by Margarita Engle. For some reason, this poem originally sparked my interest most likely due to my favorite animal being turtles! As I read through the poem it seems to not be focused too much around a turtle. The… Continue reading poetry
Architectural Interiors
Architecture is very interesting, since becoming a homeowner I never truly understand what goes into it. Then you start house hunting. Not only is it the location that matter, but it’s also more of what is inside. Going through what feels like hundreds of homes you pick out the ones that might have columns out… Continue reading Architectural Interiors
Romeo & Juliet
While walking around campus going from class to class, I just so happened to notice a sculpture that caught my eye. The patina on the sculpture and the setting just seemed like the perfect subject to write about. This beautiful sculpture is found in the Florida Southwestern State College Mary Joe Sanders Garden of Inspiration.… Continue reading Romeo & Juliet
