It’s taken me a few days to process the mass shooting that took place in Las Vegas this past weekend. I cannot imagine the horrors and sorrow that the victims and their families have suffered. I cannot commend enough the first responders and everyday people that risked their own lives to help and protect others. …

Fanfiction
There seem to be two types of people: those who know what fanfiction is and those who have no idea. The former type can be broken down further into two more types: those who write and/or appreciate fanfiction and those who criticize and mock it, whether they write it or not. I fall into the …
9/11
Never forget. It’s been 16 years, and everyone still remembers. Notice how I didn’t say only Americans remember. I’m sure that many people across the globe, allies and enemies of the U.S. alike, haven’t forgotten the events of September 11th, 2001. They have since changed the entire world. No one will forget it for years …

Motivation
The first song I added by Sum 41, and probably my favorite song by the band, is called "Motivation." Whether you're familiar with that song or not, let me include the lyrics of the chorus for you: Motivation, such an aggravation/ Accusations, don't know how to take them/ Inspiration, getting hard to fake it/ Concentration, …
Yoga
I've taken different yoga classes at various studios for the past few years, and at long last, I can conclude that there is one universal truth to yoga: when the instructor decides to play music during a class, her go-to artist is Enya. I recognized Enya's voice immediately when I went to my class today. …
