When this first started happening, it occurred to me that maybe we were just being paranoid. Maybe my family and I were buying into a spooky idea for the thrill of it. Maybe we enjoyed puzzling over the mystery, or connecting dots to take turns forming wild theories. But things escalated quickly; that one week, it happened every single night. It should have been a relief that more than one of us witnessed it - but it wasn’t. If anything, it made the unwelcome phenomenon somehow far more unsettling.

How to Beautify Your Living Space
As a 23-year-old who still lives at home with her parents, two siblings, and a yappy little dog, I understand how tremendously important it is to have a space of your own. Sometimes I feel as though my happiness is dependent on being able to go up to my room after a long day of work and just chill out in my own little square space; a space that is completely me.

An OCD Story: It's More Than Just Cleanliness and Counting
It was October 18th, 2016—a Tuesday. I had decided that this would be the day that I was finally going to go and speak with a professional about what had been troubling me since mid-August of that year. I remember being very tired and extremely nauseous. I was most likely tired because I had stayed up the night before riding the never-ending mental carousel as I chased "the thoughts" around my head, and I was most likely nauseous because, at that point in time, I had almost literally become a 5'8", blonde-haired ball of nerves.

But If Your Daddy Thinks You're Fine...
I have been obsessed with this woman since I was 15 years old. Is it unhealthy? No. Is it a bit much? Probably. Do I care to work on it? Not really! I believe it is the kind of attachment and awe that everyone with a deep appreciation for art or any type of skilled creation expresses towards an artist at some point throughout their lives. My dad has Springsteen, my sister has Jimmy Fallon, my boyfriend has that singer from "Tool," etc. Well, Amy Winehouse is my artist.
