Sorry for being AWOL this week. I've been sick (turns out I have a double ear infection— fun!). Anyway, I thought I'd get back into the swing of things by writing a new post for one of my old series. This series? Flashback Friday, a fun way to take a look back at my past. [...]

FBF: Old Writing Projects I’m Now Embarrassed By
It’s been a while since I hit you with a blast from the past. Usually I talk about things I used to like (books, music, etc.), but today I’m going to do something a little different. I’ve wanted to be a writer ever since I found out that was something you could do for a [...]
FBF: The Best Books I Read in College
As much as I hated my entire public school experience, I loved college. I loved the classroom environment and I loved talking about books and writing all the time. I was a creative writing major, but I took a lot of literature classes as well. Obviously, I had a lot of assigned reading. Most of [...]
FBF: The First Singers and Groups I Ever Loved
If you’ve learned anything about me over these last seven months, it’s that I’ve always loved books. Well, there’s something else I’ve loved just as long: music. Alas, aside from a brief year of piano lessons and half a semester of saxophone class, I have no skill for it. Regardless, music has always meant the [...]
FBF: TV Shows that Were Once My Favorite

FBF: 5 Actors I Used to Be Obsessed With
One thing that’s always been apparent, teenage girls have the tendency to glom onto certain actors for extended periods of time. This is by no means a bad thing, but it is a phenomenon that seems to cross most cultures. I, of course, was no exception. For the sake of simplicity, “actors” in this post [...]
FBF: Books I Read in Middle School that I’ve Thought about for Years
A few of you may remember, but about a month or so ago I did a post like this for books I read in high school. However, that excluded a few books that have actually stuck with me for longer. Because yes, I was also a nerd in middle school. I just pretended not to [...]
Flashback Friday: Fandoms and Obsessions I Had Before Fandom Internet
This will probably come as a surprise to no one, but I have always had a very obsessive personality. When I decide I like something, I make my whole life about it. I’ve gotten better about it as I’ve gotten older, but it’s still a core part of my personality. Today I’d like to take [...]
Flashback Friday: Terrible Movies I Used to Love
For every good movie, there are five bad ones. That’s just the way of the world. Or rather, the way of Hollywood. And in my time as a movie viewer, I’ve liked some pretty bad ones. And today, I’m here to expose my past shame. So sit back, relax, and don’t drink anything. You may [...]
