My favorite embarrassing moment to recall.

I’m sure we've all had moments we’re too embarrassed to talk about.
Although this particular moment isn't the most embarrassing one I’ve had, it definitely adds to the list!

So this happened back in grade 9 in the month of December and I know it was December because of the chilly weather and heavy rainfall. It was during lunch break when my friends and I were enjoying our short walk to the medical room because one of my friends wasn’t feeling too well. Little did I know that short walk would land me in the medical room as well!

As I previously mentioned it was a rainy day which meant the ground was pretty slippery and my 13-year-old self thought it would be ”fun” to jump around a bit. Of course, my friend had to take advantage of my vulnerable state and pushed me causing me to lose balance and fall directly on my elbow which to be honest is a weird yet amusing way to fall...right? Did I mention it was lunchtime? Meaning all the teachers, juniors and seniors were walking around!

As you’d expect, I caught pretty much everyone’s attention and no one bothered to hold back their laughter...or help me up...or even ask me if I’m okay! So I did what I thought would make things less awkward and joined in on the laughter while silently hissing at the unbearable pain. It felt like my arm had completely come off! Meanwhile, my friends couldn’t stop laughing but eventually walked me to the medical room.

I spent the remaining of that day avoiding the use of my right arm which was a good excuse to skip on a few classes so maybe this experience wasn’t that horrible? The funny part is I didn't walk on wet grounds with my friends for a solid 2 months after that!

Even though it was an embarrassing moment I can't help but laugh at how I still remember every part of it! Feels like it happened just yesterday.

Life as we know it.

The term YOLO sounds so simple yet so particularly deep. Sure, we live only once but we also experience each day once which sounds bizarre considering we live every day in the same pattern. Every day that we live, every minute that passes by never comes back almost like we’ll never relive today again even if tomorrow feels the same! This makes me wonder how a small improvement to a 24 hour day can change the way we live it. I sometimes find myself pondering life. How it’s the perfect balance of consistency and inconsistency, how one decision made today can completely alter the route of your life the next day. It’s the perception of realizing that there are so many people in this world who we’ll never know, who will never have any impact on us or whose life we’ll never be a part of. It’s the notion that no matter how slow or fast time flies, it’s always somehow moving forward and never stationary. It’s the awareness that happiness can be attained if we’re pleased with all

Feelings ~ 5/9/23

Isn't life truly fascinating? It's remarkable how a single moment in a person's life can alter what seems predetermined as fate and destiny, yet in our eyes, it's merely a moment of interchangeable paths – that instance when life takes an unexpected yet incredibly beautiful turn. These are the moments that, once entered, leave us forever changed. Perhaps it's destiny gently guiding events towards a perfect ending. There's a yearning for home and belonging, even in places that no longer hold that feeling. Not because of sad events, but because moments evolve into cherished memories, and life has ushered us along a different path. These are the moments that beckon reflection. As you sit in that exact spot, in the same seat, you can't help but wonder how those moments have transformed into memories, sometimes overlooked as life's hustle takes center stage. Isn't it beautiful how one ordinary step on an average day, at the most ordinary time, can become

A writing discovery.

So I've been having difficulties coming up with a blog topic, then I figured why not talk about that? When I initially started writing, I had this idea in my head that the things I write should always have a purpose and be of an excellent caliber, but as time passed, I realized that wasn't always the case. Blogging does not always have to be about discussing things that need to be heard by the majority. To be realistic, it can be as straightforward as writing about your day. Blogging, in my perspective, is essentially open-access journaling. We express our feelings simply by talking about them, and we receive a response that usually goes something like "I can absolutely empathize with this". There's something restorative about writing, even if it's about the most illogical of subjects. It's the human connection we feel while discussing significant moments in our lives that might have a completely different impact on someone else depending on where that m
