Advice

By Anonymous -
   The best advice any one has given me is to slow down. I always talk too fast, walk too fast, eat too fast, etc. And I think too fast. I need to just slow down. It was really helpful. Sometimes you just need somebody to tell you to slow down. I tried it and it was phenomenal. I was calm and could be focused. It's especially useful at night. I have insomnia which is caused by stress. I worry a lot at night. And if I can just slow my heart, thoughts, brain, I can fall asleep. I just slow down.

    Dear Sarah,
    I have the same problem. I will start talking super fast which is why I slip up on my R's most of the time. I agree with telling yourself to calm down. I know how stress makes it impossible to sleep. I sometimes don't go to bed until 2:00 AM because I'm so stressed with trying to be a good daughter, a good student, a good friend, etc. My PE teacher taught me that meditating will help calm you down. If you don't do this yet, you should try it. Just close your eyes and take a few deep breathes. I do this a lot and it helps. Sometimes, you just gotta not go fast.

Beastkeeper - Kat Hellisen

By Anonymous -
    Over the summer I read Beastkeeper by Cat Hellisen. In the book, our main character, Sarah, moves in with her distant grandmother. Sarah comes from a cursed family, where as soon as they fall in love, they transform into a beast. After Sarah's mother leaves her father he starts turning. Something to note, the curse takes over when you fall in love but the other person doesn't love you back. After Sarah's father starts Turing, he drops her off at her grandparents place, whom she thought were dead. She then meets a boy named Alan.     That's just a little piece of the book. I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy. This book was god-awful.

My Worst Aurgument (With Danny DeVito)

By Anonymous -
     I dont really get into arguments. If I did I don't remember them because my memory is crap. So I'll make something up. It's the summer of 73' and me and Danny DeVito are sitting on the front steps of the ice cream shop. We start to talk about school and family, then all of the sudden, he says, "wait a minute, you stole my Johnny Bench baseball card, didn't you?" Why would I do that? It's his favorite card. I wondered why he would think that. He got so mad, his face turned red. I start to say that I didn't do it. Before you know it it's a heated argument over some card. He pushed me so I pushed him back. He then storms off. We didn't speak for a whole year and a half. I remember, in January of 1975, he comes up to me and says, "turns out, I forgot that I put my card in the birds nest in front of my house. Want to be friends again?" I evaluate  the situation, and I'm all for it and we resume our friendship. To celebrate we ...

Ukrainian Hip Hop

By Anonymous -
     I love all kinds of music; rock, pop, alternative, jazz, rap, Ukrainian hip hop, all kinds. I just really love music. Music is my life. It makes me feel happy, sad, relaxed. I play music and I write music. It's so great. If you've ever listened to music, you'll know that it makes you want to dance. I don't know why we can the impulse to dance then we hear that funky fresh music (sorry). The other day I was playing that dank Seinfeld theme on my piano, and I was just jamming to it. A bit later I hoped in the shower and realized that the lit theme song was still in my head. So I decide it was a good idea to dance in the shower. Well I slipped and fell. I fell because I was dancing to the Seinfeld theme song, which was playing in my head. Wow. I have no idea why I thought it was a good idea. I guess I wasn't cognizant as to what I was doing. What is some kind of music you like? Might I recommend some Ukrainian hip hop, it's pretty great.
