How To Be A Friend #001
Don’t be an asshole.
I have been at a pretty low point in my life lately. About a month ago, I was fired from my job. I was called up on a day off and told by my boss that, “it isn’t working out,” and that she would, “have to let [me] go.” I did not do anything wrong. I did not break any rules or steal anything. Nevertheless, I was not provided the...

Last night, you guys...
Such a long story, so I’ll bullet point it for y’all:
Made friends with a DJ and may have scored some free party time on Fire Island this summer…I think? I dunno. That’ll be cool if it actually pans out.
Watched some drag queens be fierce all over the place. Pixie Aventura is my new favorite everything.
Met super cute interior designer who says he’s interested...

Remember that guy that dumped me the same day that...
Well, I was STUPID enough to give him the benefit of the doubt. I let him make me believe that he was being the better man by giving me a chance to begin with — that he wasn’t into white guys usually. Well tonight, he invited me to a party that a friend of his was throwing. At this party, I met a white boy named “Satchel.” That’s right…like the bag....
Anonymous asked: "Been too picky" is a tragic expectation put on us by a society that expects us to pair off. It's more like, you understand your needs as a potential partner and have reasonable expectations that others will fulfill those needs. And when they are unable to do so, it's not right.

How The Mighty Have Fallen
It’s so strange to look at my life 2 months ago, and my life as it is now. This time in February I had a job in my field of study—IN MANHATTAN. I was looking forward to beginning my first full-implementation job at work and to seeing a design actually come to life. On top of that, I was seeing a boy that I was totally enamored with. I was happy.
Fast forward to March. After the...

Fancy Titles
I received a phone call today regarding a position that I had applied for on a whim. The job is as a copywriter for a online home decor retailer — essentially writing all of the descriptions for the products that they carry.
This phone call turned into an interview during which I was told that out of the 170 resumes they had received, I was one of THREE people she actually called....
