kingdom of Brooklyn, the fashionable people put on cute shoes, go to
parties in warehouses, drink on rooftops at sunset, and tell themselves
they’ve arrived. A whole lot of Brooklyn is like that now—but not
Vassa’s working-class neighborhood.In Vassa’s neighborhood,
where she lives with her stepmother and bickering stepsisters, one might
stumble onto magic, but stumbling out again could...

It has come time again for me to turn one year older. I don't know about you guys, but at fifteen sixteen years old, the thought of getting older still terrifies me. Maybe it's because I still feel like a child inside, or maybe because I'm basically fighting with my maturity so I don't become one of those evil grown ups [not to imply that all grown-ups are evil, that's certainly not true. I've met quite a few who are wonderful and feed me.]
But let's get into the festivities, shall we?
Last year, I wrote all about the...

There's
a reason they say "be careful what you wish for." Just ask the girl who
wished to be thinner and ended up smaller than Thumbelina, or the boy
who asked for "balls of steel" and got them-literally. And never wish
for your party to go on forever. Not unless you want your guests to be
struck down by debilitating pain if they try to leave.
These are things Lennie only learns when it's too late-after she brings
some of her uncles' moonshine...

When Mishma announced she would be hosting a celebration for villains, it's no surprise yo girl, Nova, decided to join in all the fun. Today, I bring you a post of musings I've been contemplating for a while now.
When I was a youngin', the villains were very obvious. They wore black, looked maniacal and were almost always creepy in some way. Also, they tended to be old and ugly to reflect their internal villainy. As a ten year old, this made so much sense. We see these people and go, "they're so mean and ugly! It just makes...

Well... It has been an EMBARASSINGLY long time since my last recap. We're getting there, guys, slowly but surely. I'm going to forget the fact that I'm basically getting carpal tunnel [from extreme piano practice.] However, life hasn't been that exciting, except for the fact that my grades are really good. Apparently, if I can get a 95 or higher average in all subjects in twelfth grade, I'm eligible for a really good scholarship. Okay, right now, I do have those grades but I heard that in grade eleven, there's this...

I heavily
recommend you listen to me reading this reflection as you follow along with the post. It sounds like a spoken word. Please, I spent a lot
of time doing it and I feel like my words carry more meaning with the
audio. However, I know that not everyone is an auditory learner, which
is why the text version of the letter is also available. Thank you so
much for reading.
Quite often, I forget that I've been a blogger for a long time. I'm fifteen and it doesn't seem like it, but my "blogging age" is embarrassingly...
