The helicopter crash that resulted in the untimely deaths of nine people was absolutely devastating news that shocked everyone this past Sunday. It’s heartbreaking whenever a public figure passes away, especially so suddenly. Touching tributes pour in from fans, celebrities, talk show hosts and the like as everyone feels the weight of the tragedy even … Continue reading
I’m working on the first draft of a new pilot, and something I’ve come to realize about my writing process is that what takes me the longest isn’t coming up with characters or show concepts, but making decisions about those characters as I dive into the plot. It’s so tempting to procrastinate when writing, especially … Continue reading
Well, I wasn’t planning on writing another cat obituary so soon, but here we are. Our cat, Twinky, passed away today. His death hurts in a different way compared to when our cat, Missy, passed in March. We adopted Twinky, a Norweigan Forest cat, back in June 2003 when he was just a little kitten. … Continue reading
Our cat, Missy, passed away yesterday. The last time I dealt with the loss of a pet was back in 2003 when we had to put down our first cat, Nicky. Later that year, my rabbit, Snowflake (nicknamed Snowy), passed away as well. Of course, we’ve all experienced how incredibly difficult it is to come … Continue reading

Death is a part of life, after all, an inevitability. I really love my grandpa and I miss … Continue reading
Let’s face it: It’s so easy to take life for granted. We’re just so used to our routines, so busy with our daily lives, that it becomes that much easier for us to overlook things. We tend not to give the little things in life much significance, and because of that, life can feel monotonous at … Continue reading
Attention blogging world: I got a job. I repeat: I got a JOB! 😀 After nearly five months of being unemployed, I’m back in the working world again! It’s true. It’s finally happened. My hopeless, daydreaming, somewhat pessimistic rants about my desperately determined job search are over. Allow me to tell you the story. It … Continue reading
Yesterday marked one year since my grandmother passed away. In a way, it feels like the year has gone by so frighteningly quickly, as I can remember the day she died, as that overused phrase goes, literally like it was just yesterday. In another way, however, it feels like she’s been gone so much longer … Continue reading
