  • (This is not at all a blog on sobriety. It is my take on Virginia Tech football, my alma mater. I graduated with a degree in Multimedia Journalism and have a passion for sports. Maybe utilizing writing can create a new outlet for me in the world of sports. Try new shit) It pains me…

  • Last November I made a post about not knowing what I am doing and what I want to be doing. It is now the following September and I feel the exact same way. It is quite frustrating to say the least but it is also a bit reassuring. Here is why it is frustrating. Not…

  • I likely will record a video recapping the past three years and covering some topics that I feel will be meaningful for others. First off, I am grateful for this blog. Even if nobody reads it, it still holds immense value to me. It has taught me to understand why you should do things for…

  • Reasons I have learned to appreciate writing. It has a direct correlation to the way I speak and how I am able to voice my thoughts. I have been able to converse more confidently with others.

  • I took a yoga class a week ago. I appreciate yoga and what it has done for my mindset the past several years. In shavasana, (or corpse pose) where you typically just lay flat after a 50 minutes of flowing and breathe, I thought “what if death was one long shavasana?”. I didn’t even know…

  • I recapped last year and did not make any new years resolutions. I guess if I had to tell someone my resolutions for 2024 it would just be to live presently. One day at a time. Just like they tell you to approach sobriety. I have never really liked breaking down the full year ahead…
