Today is one of those days where I don’t think I can identify with the traditional term of “Christian” anymore, especially not since I am now a Progressive Christian who believes that a ‘God who so loved the world’ (John 3:16) would not reserve an eternal punishment of hell on people who don’t accept or […]
If I could go back in time, one thing I would tell myself would be that it’s okay to tell people “No”, especially when it comes to invitations to hang out, go out, or do a thing. I was what people would call a flaky friend. I would say yes to every invitation. I truly […]
Today was the third session since I had been back. I wanted about work and school for a good portion of the time. It just occurred to me that the reason that I’ve been so frustrated and angry has been because I’ve been taking many things people say way too seriously. S could have easily […]
When I saw the email sender’s name, my stomach actually did flip-flops. It was S. About 2 week or so ago, I had reached out to the CAPS office to re-engage in therapy. I had returned to the state where my school is located, so this meant that I could re-establish care now that I’m […]
CW: Depression, suicide Spoiler for “The Magicians”, Season 4, Ep 13 If you’d like to indulge me, this is just me being distracted from doing my assignment into the realm of philosophical musings prompted by non-fictional characters and a TV show (“The Magicians”) that many have probably not even seen. I do this a lot […]
Hi folks, It’s been a while. 2020 has been a shitshow since the start but it’s become the new normal.

[…]
On May 24th, I had my name legally changed as I swore my loyalty to the United States of America. 2 weeks later, I changed my last name after marriage. It’s so surreal but I now have the name that reflect the true me. I’ve embraced my identity more deeply than ever before. I’m Jules. […]
“Mawwiage… Mawwiage is what bwings us togather today…” – my favorite quote on marriage. It’s been a while since I last updated. Life had been hectic! Between full time school, and full time work, and all the crazy life events that had happened since May, I’d been too busy to update anything. In any case… […]
If I hadn’t already discovered that I’m queer, Captain Marvel in The Avengers: Endgame would have revealed that for me. She is gorgeous, and in Endgame, even more so. I know we shouldn’t objectify people – especially not women, but dayyyyyyum. This fangirl (fan-person?) has definitely got a celeb-crush on Brie Larson/Carol Danvers.
I’m on some new dosage for my Sertraline (brand name: Zoloft) because things have just been downhill for me since I had returned from the Pacific Northwest. I really think that the PNW is where I need to be in order to be the healthiest version of me possible. The weather and I agree there. The time […]
