Newly Bold

Last week a person I recently blogged about approached me unhappy with how they feel Iportrayed them but also wanted to talk about the situation. After a one hour conversation with them on top of a long day where I wasn’t happy with a lot of thing, I was left emotional questioning myself and maturity. I questionedContinue reading “Newly Bold”

What We Deserve

Every school break I go home to what feels like some of the same family drama. One person has says something to annoy another, my little brother and sister of course fighting with each other and me starting out this trip home by knowing exactly how many days and hours this ordeal could last. WhatContinue reading “What We Deserve”

Alone Right Now

I remember walking back upstairs to my room after my mom dropped me off at college. She cried all the way here and as she started to drive off. I remember feeling like we were driving into an unknown. As I walked back into my room and sat down, I thought to myself: This isContinue reading “Alone Right Now”

A Look Back at Sexy, Party, WOW, a Flashback and Trust

 This is my past week in photos and some of the lessons I’m experiencing. My high school friend/faithful yoga partner and I kicked off trying to get back into a yoga routine. The hard part is finding a teacher that fits our style. This year is all about being “sexy juniors.” But maybe it’s reallyContinue reading “A Look Back at Sexy, Party, WOW, a Flashback and Trust”

Moment of Honesty

We met at the statue. This was a long time coming. I only received his call ten minutes ago. We decided to go to Chipotle, so he could eat. I immediately thought what a mistake that was. Natalie and I once discussed how boys and Chipotle are never a good thing. He and I sat acrossContinue reading “Moment of Honesty”

Or at Least I Can Pretend

I just didn’t think it was going to be this hard. I simply wanted a clean break for everyone involved. I wanted things easy. When I say break I don’t mean like forget everything, forget each other. I just wanted things simpler. I guess not so emotional on my part. And part of me questions how canContinue reading “Or at Least I Can Pretend”

Party of One

Welcome to junior year – party of one! If I’ve learned anything these last two years, it’s that I’m on a journey and I’m alone in it. Not in a depressing way but as a warrior trying to find his way. Friendships have come and gone and are in the hospital. Work skyrocketed in constantlyContinue reading “Party of One”

The Light Behind the Closet Door

My one year anniversary of being out as gay was December 1st and it amazes me it has been that long. It feels like longer in so many ways! I grew to be comfortable with who I am with a peace and courage that wasn’t there before. There are certain questions and situations that came upContinue reading “The Light Behind the Closet Door”

Real Talk

This past weekend I realized some inner truths through conversations with friends and being honest with myself. I basically “got real” and so did some of my friends. Often we end up lying to ourselves or not disclosing the truth to someone else, when we should. We need to get real about our feelings andContinue reading “Real Talk”
