School
Secrets & Shadows
This is highly controversial but I don’t care. The best decision I’ve ever made was to start using cannabis. Mind you, most people are none the wiser that I even use cannabis. And almost all others pretty shocked when they find out.

I was almost signed to Barbizon until....
When I was young, I never thought of myself becoming an actress at all. All I wanted to be was a doctor until when I moved back to Maryland after staying in Arkansas for two years. I started watching shows on Disney Channel like That's so Raven, Lizzie McGuire, The Proud Family, The Famous Jett Jackson and watching DCOM (Disney Channel Original Movies): the Cheetah Girls and High School Musical it got me to change my career from doctor to actress. When I was sixth grade, when I signed up for Barbizon I thought it was going to happen until it never did. It started off when I was sixth grade, the year was 2006 when Hannah Montana premiered on the Disney Channel and me and my family we were living in grandma's three bedroom apartment. It was during lunch period the people of Barbizon were giving forms to students to sign up to be a part of the Barbizon and that if we sign up we can get a $10,000 scholarship. At the time, it was before I auditioned for the school musical so it was way before I find my acting chops plus I never had any acting training, I signed up just so I could get a full scholarship since I was doing well in middle school and making the honor roll I filled in all the information and put it inside the box. Over the weekend, my mom was doing my hair until her phone rang. My mom answered the phone and it was from Barbizon telling her that I was selected from the box and they wanted meet with me and my mother for meeting and conference at the hotel. We went to the Holiday Inn in Gaithersburg where the meeting was held to the ballroom where I saw young girls from middle school and high school who signed up and was chosen by Barbizon. The speaker (I don't even remember who the name) representing Barbizon was talking about how they started, how we get started, acting classes, modeling sessions, how they will help get acting model gigs and blah blah. After that, they showed us a video of all the Barbizon alumni testimonial stories which looked legit and how they landed in their first opportunities even actors in the video like Chaz Monet who portrays as Rudy Bridges in the 1998 film then after the video we met with I believe they were agents from Barbizon. The women was so nice and helpful like she was invested me. We had a great, very professional conversation and I thanked her after I left and hoping she would call.

I Keep Having the Same Annoying Dreams
I am 13 weeks pregnant. Over the past few weeks, I've been super tired. I've barely wanted to do anything. The sites I work for have been dipping when it comes to earnings and traffic, so that is partly to blame for the demotivation I've been feeling. (Why bother putting in effort for a few cents?)

Why I Still Write...
Do not whine… Do not complain. Work harder. Spend more time alone. - Joan Didion Here I am, staring at the blank page and coming up with another idea for an online piece that will be posted on Vocal with the hope that it will become popular, read widely, maybe even viral. I know that the odds are against me, and yet I still do this. I find a way to sit down and stare down a blank white rectangle that does not care either way if I decide to search for porn or create another poem, essay, list or story (my usual choices). And sometimes I wonder why.

My Life At 30 Years Old
So I pull a "fuck it" and let my hands flow on the keyboard, let my brain tell me what to write. I wanted to write about how great it is to be 30 years old, I wanted to write that I don't understand those who complain now that they have reached this age, but instead I will write about myself. Because I rarely write about myself.

The Cats Attack
Cats are the oldest animals in history to keep away and monitor the dead. To keep us safe, day and night. Even though they are super lazy, they are always on the look-out for the importance of safety. Safety for humankind and their masters of the community. The glasses set them apart from everything known in the animal kingdom.

The Internet Just Replaced A Lot Of Things, Like Cookbooks
I was browsing through the recipe book section at Chapters when a budget-friendly cookbook caught my eye. It pleased my senses with its colourful cover, smooth and well-illustrated pages, vast content, and the “new book” smell that came from the inside.

My Story On Mean Girls
So this is my story on “ Mean Girls” so what is a mean girl? many of you may have seen the movie “ Mean Girls” with Lindsey lohan and Rachel Mcadams. The movie was basically showing how cruel high school girls can be, but in reality there much worse. My experience in high school was pretty much a rollercoaster when it came to friends. I have been in the wrong crowd before. I had friends that weren't my true friends. For example being, in grade 9 I met this girl, I won't be saying names, so I will use letters. So I met A in high school. She was this girl who was sweet at first but she changed quickly from being my friend. She literally talked a lot of shit behind my back. We used to hang out at her house, and after that time, she switched up which wasn't cool at all. Things changed dramatically, we stopped being friends. She just wasn't someone I should hang with. Next up, B was in my math class and we shared the same birthday. I thought she was cool at first but she changed quickly, she actually turned into my archnemesis. We got into fights, not physical, but verbal fights. She would call me names, and I would do the same too. I wasn't the mean girl in this situation, she was. I thought she was my friend, but clearly not. Her true colours showed. I hated that we shared the same birthday. I literally have a whole list of mean girls from my high school. Next on the list, was C, so C was very cool at first, but you guessed it. She did some mean things. If I could remember, she would talk crap behind my back but when she was hanging with me she would pretend to be my friend. I even got into a physical fight with her, something in her snapped and she pushed me and then I pushed her back into a wall. Both of us got sent to the principal's office, and we got detention. I hated detention, what is the point of that? Anyways, we stopped being friends for a long time, even till now were not friends, like it's been years since I spoke to her. The next one would be the three mean girls, the true mean girls of my life. There were these three girls in my high school, who go by the name of S, K, S let me tell you guys, they were really nice at first but, their true colours were revealed, while walking in the hallway they would yell at me saying rude nasty words. I would yell back, and we would get into fights, verbal fights. It was just really bad. When I finished high school, I was glad I didn't have to see their faces again. Now, let me be honest, it is 2022 and you guys are probably wondering if I talk to these people. well to answer that question, nope with C, I'll say we follow each other on Instagram and Facebook, and she checks my stories from time to time. I will say this, I remember reaching out to her last year 2021 but, she didn't respond back. Like, we're both adults now, she should have sent me back a message, but whatever, it is what it is. When it comes to A, we follow each other on Instagram and she also checks my stories, but we don't talk to each other. As for those three girls, S, K and S I haven't seen or heard from them in so many years, we don't follow each other on Facebook or Instagram. I don't need that kind of negative energy in my life. So will just leave it at that. My only advice to you guys if you are dealing with a mean girl is to be yourself, never change for anyone and don't react to the meanies. Mean girls feed on reaction. Don't be a bully, but be kind, stay strong, and separate yourself to calm down. Try thinking they're invisible, that one always works :) so that's my story of mean girls. Thank you for reading this far. If you guys want to share your experiences on mean girls, comment below :)
