Timing Is Everything
Nearly 30 years ago, I was born on an Air Force Base in Misawa, Japan. I became the first of four children; as such, I think I can safely say that there were many expectations placed on me. Some of them I placed on myself as I got older. But the one that has eluded me thus far, the one that I want the most, is becoming a published author.

Finding My Voice
An update about my relationship with writing I've been struggling with deciding the type of content that I would like to pursue writing. I've been trying out a variety of topics, like subjects that from school like How to do Online School Successfully, Gender Stereotypes (from Sociology class), Choosing a Major, etc. I've also written about current events like The Gender Reveal Wildfires, details about the new Disney Princess Movie months before it was released, the time whenGen Z accidentally suggested a Nazi symbol for a matching tattoo, etc.

A Lucky Coincidence Just Saved Me 1110 Euros
Last year, I took out an occupational disability insurance policy for authors and journalists over the phone. During the conversation, the person in charge advised me to register as a journalist and not as an author, because that would be much cheaper for me.

The Game of Social chance
Social stratification has multiple factors in order for it to work properly. It starts with the social differentiation, “human diversity of the society”, to social inequality, to social order, and then the stratification which is created through the social forces such as “socio-historical and political actions” (Larkin, 2015). In this writing, I will be discussing three types of stratifications systems, how individuals are sorted into the system and the system’s social mobility.

An Open Letter To The Woman Who Got Me Fired
Dear Woman Who Got Me Fired, I can't deny that you've crossed my mind often since the day I encountered you. I was already having trouble when you came into my workplace and started throwing your adult temper tantrum. You were angry because there were security tags on the thong flip flops that your daughter wanted to try on. The flip flops were a couple of sizes too small for your daughter's feet, but both of you thought the tiny security strip was the reason your daughter's size eleven feet weren't fitting in a size eight or nine.

How Anime made me a writer
When I was about 13 years old I was such a dorky kid, I wasn’t bullied per say but I was a teacher’s pet and I loved getting good grades. I had Harry Potter glasses (super hip now, of course) that I did get made fun of for but I really didn’t pay attention.

Elderly Caregivers' Unknown Plight - Being Abused by the Elderly They Are Trying to Protect
Narcissistic Abuse It is a shocking circumstance that some older parental figures, particularly relatives who give everyday administrations to their debilitated moms/fathers, are enduring peacefully as they persevere through mental or mental maltreatment from their elderly folks who have gotten egotistical, controlling, and manipulative to get what they need when they need it.

Try Try Try
I love to write. I have always loved to write, as long as I could remember. It is a big part of myself. Ever since I could start to read I wanted to be an author. But along the years I started to lose myself. I tried different places to write and publish work and nothing gets read more. Though It may have been FanFiction and I was only a tween, I started to lose faith. Then a few partners of mine took writing away from me to a point I just didn't want to anymore.

How I Became the Managing Director of A Company at 23
I'd just gotten out of the surf and opened the door of my van when I could hear the faint rhythmic buzzing of ringing phone in the glovebox. I leaned over the front seat and fished through its messy contents until I grabbed my phone and answered.
