I rescheduled my road test for like the 4th time lmao
          	
          	But this time it's because my mom is sick so it's valid

Not my road test being on Friday and I haven't driven at all since early May lmao

UNWILTED

@UNWILTED But I've done some research, and apparently the road test in my area is extremely basic? I mean, I'm only gonna be driving for about 15 minutes. I'm pretty sure I can drive decently for 15 minutes lol

@UNWILTED Late April-Early May would be more accurate

Note to anyone interested in Substack: take advantage of the Notes. It is an easy way to interact directly with the community and discover interesting articles, poems, etc. Interaction is just as important as consistency.

Currently working on three essays which will be posted on Substack (one will be posted here on Wattpad, but the other two will be exclusive to Substack). I am working on essay about Audre Lorde, an essay on (Black female) aloneness and loneliness, and an essay on perception inspired by Ama Codjoe's work and interviews.

UNWILTED

And I'm not even doing any "real" research like a good essayist...these are just my pure thoughts and personal analyses of quotes/poems and it's STILL kicking my ass lmao

The essay on loneliness is the one which will be posted here on Wattpad as well as on Substack.

Here are some links to writing prompts I posted on my Substack Born in Babylon. The first set of prompts were inspired by bell hooks' girlhood memoir and concern memory and childhood while the second set of prompts concern identity, the self, and origins.

Y'all, I just had such an IMMACULATE thrifting experience. I found 2 (!!!) Lana Del Rey tote bags, sooooo many Sanrio and early 2000s/Y2K stickers, 5 Sanrio pens, a pair of handmade My Melody earrings and a handmade Cinnamoroll necklace like wtf

@kusuosupremacy Have you tried other thrift stores/vintage markets in your area? The thrift stores near me don't be hitting either most of the time but I can find a gem every now and then. I went to a vintage market this time and since it was more curated than a traditional thrift store, I was able to find more things to my liking (no clothes since I didn't want to chance anything, but good knick knacks plus a TONI MORRISON BOOK HELLO????).   The thrift stores have also gotten pretty pricy nowadays tho, especially Goodwill like wtf
