Hello World

So I'm not sure how this thing works and I'm up at 11 PM figuring it out. Hi.
Let's start with basics- I'm a girl, XX years old, I live in the lovely state of Wisconsin.
I like love and music and art and food.
And owls. Cats, too.
Grammar is a code I strictly abide by.
So... yep.

I'm Sick.

I'm sick of living in a world where 1 in 4 girls are sexually abused before they're even 16. I'm sick of being told that I am no more than my body, an object of entertainment on tv and billboards to be bought and sold as men like it. I'm sick of a world where men fear that women might threaten their masculinity, but women fear that men might threaten their life. I'm sick of hearing people joke and throw the words rape and abuse around like baseballs when they're as heavy as concrete and hurt even more when wielded. No, I've never been raped, but i shouldn't have to to know it's wrong. I'm sick of being powerless to fight the overbearing weight of rape culture, where girls are taught how to restrict themselves to defend themselves, but men are rarely taught not to attack. I'm sick of the numbers that we drown in but ignore, the statistics of human beings ground into packaged pleasure, the ultimate expression of love twisted into the

We Are Narcissists with Self-Esteem Issues

Really, we are. Just think about it. People are going out of their way to make sure everyone knows just how awkward, depressed, antisocial, and messed-up they are. Hey guess what- everyone is. Everyone feels awkward. Everyone can feel depressed (although I recognize Depression as a real mental disorder, considering I have medication for it). Everyone can be antisocial. Everyone is messed-up. Teenagers these days are all over the media, crying out in anguish as someone posts a comment that makes them feel unloved and unwanted and unspecial. I have one thing to say- grow up. Now now, before you start closing the tab or stalking me down to tell me how rude I am, just listen. I am definitely not condoning bullying. I am strongly against it. But, you don't have to play the victim. If they can make you so miserable, find someone whom you love and let them make you happy. If you really want to feel happy, then do it. As one of the people I look up to said, "you're the o

Vespephobia and Cleaning Spray

I am... blessed... with the ability of many, many phobias, one of the worst being Vespephobia. That's the fear of wasps. So let me tell you the nightmarish occurrence that just occurred. I was inside, minding my business, watching MTV like someone who's extremely bored, when I look up... and there's a big, fat wasp there. You may be thinking "just kill it, it's just a wasp." WRONG. It is terror in the form of a small, insectoid, exoskeletal bundle of yellow and black. LOOK AT IT. Just looking this picture up made me shudder. Anyway, I froze. Then, like any other teenager my age... I posted it to Facebook. I got some likes and suggestions of what to do, but I just texted my mom (I was home alone, to make matters worse). Eventually I couldn't stand crouching on the opposite side of the room from the beast, and I took the dogs and cat and remotes and ran outside. I ended up watching the TV from the window, sitting on the lawn and making sur
